Hello,
I have just been reading Jonas Bjorkman's blog for the ATP:
http://www.atptennis.com/1/en/blog/current_bjorkman.aspAnd what a pleasure it is to read! :D
Really nice to hear about his family and social life, back-the-scenes goings on in the game, as well as some interesting facts about Stockholm. Also some really interesting snipppets about John McEnroe and a former rival of his, from way back when.. ;)

Jonas is a legend.
I saw him win his Wimbey QF this year and when he gave our side the double hug... my sister and I were shouting for him the whole match....gotta love Jonas :bow:

I could not agree more and I am so happy to find a fellow fan of his. I have followed his career from the early days and I too truly think he is a legend. No one was more happy than me when he got to the Wimbledon semi final at age 34. He is such a trooper, a real pro , a star and a true gent.
The only time I was upset was when he beat Tim at the U.S Open when Tim was expected to go far that year
Anyway he has deserved his success . He is such a hard worker and is still going strong. Good luck to him.

:ok: what a great read.
One thing that sticks in my head is that scissor jump of his that they show every Wimbledon!
It would be great if McEnroe would win another doubles Slam. B)

Don't you just love old Jonas?
He has been around that long I cannot remember a time without him now.
You know every Australian Open he had a huge following of Swedish fans. He was that grateful he used to put money behind the bar for them as a way of saying thank you for their support. That is true. He is such a nice guy.
