– New Tennis Mailbag from Jon Wertheim (03/04)
– One of the readers of the mailbag suggested that those people who suddenly lost interest in watching the Davis Cup Tie between U.S. and Switzerland in Alabama this weekend due to the absence of Roger Federer should donate these tickets to the Alabama Tennis Association. This way, the association can give the tickets to inner city children or locals who still want to watch high quality tennis. The address given:
Alabama Tennis Association

Birmingham, AL 35205
– The International Tennis Federation (ITF) decided to suspend a junior tennis tournament scheduled for this month in Pakistan in light with the recent attacks to a Sri Lankan cricket team in Lahore, the capital of the Pakistani province of Punjab on Wednesday.
An official from the ITF said that the reason for this suspension, aside from the attacks, is the “general security of the country.” No date has been set for the tourney to take place.
