Thomas Behrend, one of the true legends of the game, will retire next week after the Aachen challenger. I've only found this short notice so far, but it comes from a reliable source. Wonder with whom Kas will team up now?

Anyway, happy retirement Thomas! :)


"Tomas Behrend wird nach 16 Jahren seine Tenniskarriere in der kommenden Woche beim Challenger-Turnier in Aachen beenden. Der 32-Jährige tritt gemeinsam mit Christopher Kas im Doppel an. Der in Brasilien geborene Behrend hatte im September 2003 bei der 2:3-Niederlage des deutschen Teams gegen Weißrussland sein einziges Daviscup-Einzel bestritten und war mehrmals beim Arag World Team Cup in Düsseldorf für Deutschland am Start. Auf der ATP-Tour gewann der Sandplatz-Spezialist drei Doppel-Konkurrenzen."

My ex-husband-to-be :sad:
very sad

enjoy the retirement with your family Thomas
Behrend was a good player in tight situations.
One of his best wins against Ferrero in Palermo-QF 2005: Ferrero wasted three match points on serve at 5:3 in the second set and 4:0 lead in the third set :drool: Behrend had won 6-7(2) 7-6(4) 7-5 and reached first and last semifinal of an ATP tournament.
Oh no!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brazen hussy!

George will be saddened indeed to see Ugo depart the tour.
Not Ugo! :bigcry:
Voo de Mar get cracking on your next report

Oh I forgot, undeserving players don't get a tribute :sad:
Henman, Gimel ... they are dropping away fast :sad:

One of Porto Alegre's finest with Glenn Mirnyi ;)

a pity that he never won that elusive doubles title having lost in another final last week in Vienna

happy retirement Tomas!
he was an almost forgotten player the last years...
