THE GOD OF TENNIS-----THE TENNIS GOD!TENNIS TSAR-----TSAR DE TENNIS!!!!!!!!!!!
Name:Amarah, Age:
i dont think a lot of you would experience this! It was back 2004, after my final year of Medical School, i followed Australian red cross in the war zone down Sudan, this talk was aturally done on a refugee campus, helping them in a medical way! It was an experience that i would never forget! I had never been to a war zone ever in my life, i know its going to be a brand new thing.

WORLD FASHION----A Trendy Grandma
" Safin is the hope of Russia and the only unique charactor , being Safin's fan is the fairytale of life, I made the right choice! At 85, i followed the trand of world fashion by following Safin's amazing tennis, its worth alive for this beautiful young man"---Grandma Olga
Name: Olga P. Age: Turning 86 Nationality: Russian, Place of Birth: Kiev, Place: St Petersburg , Language: Russian (origionally)
She is my own grandmother! I know she will never log onto the web! She lost her vision 3 years ago.
It was back July 2006, I went to Moscow for my cousin Alexander's wedding and drop by St Petersburg to visit my grandma Olga, my Cousin Sergiy was with me too.
"Nana, what's up?"
"Been watching Wimbledon, My grandson Marat stopped at 2rd round''. (she always call Marat her grandson as if he is part of our family, when she is talking about watch, she meant listening the taped records from TV that my uncle Peter has made, she never missed a match, not even on of Marat's match, seriously she cant see the light, but she doesnt WATCH them from her heart)
''Why you like him?Its young kids' fashion'' Sergiy insisted.
''Serg, I am not old ok? I am just cheering for my grandson, like you!"
''oh yeah, he is good looking!" Serg teased ....
"well, yes! He is the 2nd best looking man on earth''
''who is the best?''.......I asked
''of course your grandpa Boris.....But I love Safin better, he is my kids.'' Grandma olga explained.
''Nana, i love him, cuz he is a hot man, what is your opinion?''
''well..... How the world know more about us Russian? How Moscow could host an Olympic later on? we need some famous people to repersent the country, Safin will be the perfect one!''
''woo,...Nana!@That;s right" Serg continutes
'' I know i am not young, i am blind but i would still give my life ago! I wont give up anything as long as Safin still plays tennis! I am not ready to go to heaven, i 'd still want my grandson playing and cheer for him"
''Did you say Marat saves your life? I am a doctor lol....." I joked.
'' in a way he is! He gives me hope to keep myself alive! He played almost the longest and most amazing match at AO 05, why cant I use my whole life to support him?'' Grandma olga insists.
"Nana, that's a pretty cool idea'' Serg said as he is feeding Nana some apple.
"well, its my fashion! I dont dye my hair purple, cuz u wont have it next season'' My grandma is so cute.... and she jokes a lot to us.
'' My fashion is sth lasts for ever! ''
''for ever?" I curiouse...
''yep, that grandson, Little Marat''
and????? Serg asked
'' i felt like i am young crazy girl just like Lena when i watched Safin's game'' (NOTE: Lena is my name in Russian)
''oops?''
''He is just as handsome as ur grandfather Boris! ' -
mmm...Nana seems have a great sense of fashion...
''Safin is the hope of Russia and the only unique charactor , being Safin's fan is the fairytale of life, I made the right choice! At 85, i followed the trand of world fashion by following Safin's amazing tennis, its worth alive for this beautiful young man" Nana kept saying.... i know her mind was far way! Where? Maybe Melbourne, AO? ST Petersburg open? or even Wimbyy?
''when you guys can not read and write proper Russian, think about ur brother Marat, if he can do it, u should do the same''-----AHHHh i know Nana is teasing me about me and cousin Sergiy's russian writing skills, I am really bad cuz I never attended any Russian school.
''yes, i'd try my best! ''
''Seriously, he can still playing great tennis and try hard, even after injury, why cant u give ur russian writings a go?''
Its true! Marat's experience told me that '' Nothing is impossible, magical depends on how hard you work and never give up''!
I am kind of touched my grandma Olga's words! It is just simply a grandmother, who lost her vison, a true love from her, 86 years old Russian lady, a pure love to a grandson.It is normal everyday life, but she always love to include Marat into our big family, she makes us think Marat is part of us! I feel like the boy next door is inspiring you!
To keep going and never give up!
"Oh, I am sure Marat will be world number again and always be there, he is my dearest grandson, I love him for ever! He is the best! I am pround of him, I will always be with him till i gone to heaven''-----Grandma Olga loves to pass these words to the world.
Love you! Marat Thanks for being the ''best doctor '' to keep my Nana hope and alive.Thank u!!!!!!!!!!
