I'm a blogger. I write based on what I heard and experienced. I can write whatever I want without reporting or explaining to anyone.
Besides, I don't think there's any harm in creating a buzz about this event. It's just like spreading the buzz about Justine Henin's comeback. It was good for her publicity. The same thing applies to this event too.
I'm still thinking about last week's ATP tournament and now I heard there could be another exhibition match in Kuala Lumpur coming this December.
And let's not forget that in February next year, Kuala Lumpur will host the WTA players in the Malaysia Tennis Classic.
My source (quite a reliable one) informed me that Showdown of Champions is set to take place sometime on December 19 & 20, 2009 at the Melawati Stadium.
The launching could be sometime on October 26 by Anna Kournikova; possibly going to take place at Starhill.My source also added that 2 Russians, 1 from China and 1 from India will take part in this classy event.
If the Showdown organisers keep their promise to the fans at the Putra Stadium last year, we could be having Maria Sharapova right here in Kuala Lumpur.
Now let's wait for the official news.

They must be dumb to stop you from sharing this post. Looks like the organizer does not know you're doing them a favor.
hey organisers
u dont have have to right to stop her!
we r the public, we buy your tickets, u get the money!
theres nothing wrong with this!
duh!
You've said too many nice things about the recent tournament and the previous exhibition matches in this Bolehland and this is what you get in return? Be a real blogger and write the TRUTH!
hello??? this is a tennis gossip blog! what's wrong with talking 'bout it? HCFoo, u can write what u want cz that's why i'm here!
What the fuck? They might own the mainstream media but they don't own bloggers. Ask them to play far far lar! Make sure you don't bow to them!
dont listen to the so called dictators, they dont do you a favor, in fact u r actually doing them a favour.
they should think outside the box!
third world thinking wont help local tennis much, thats y local players get kicked out in qualifying atp.
WHEN CAN LOCAL SPORTS GROW?
hc, the pen is always mightier than the sword.
continue doing wat u do best. BLOGGING.
if the organisers are so petty, let them be. they dun pay u for any articles.
Hi guys, thank you for the input.
I don't get a single cent for doing all the tennis-star chasing... in fact I have to apply leave, borrow a better DSLR from friend, pay toll and petrol, and even spent hundred of $$ to pay tickets to be at all those events. As for all the free tickets I get from organisers, I gave it all away for free.
I think I'll just continue to do what I do best, blogging from behind the computer. I don't need to go all out for all these local events if they think I'm not helpful.
And I've forgotten to mention I have to pay for parking too coz parking stickers are not allocated for blogger like me.
People tend to take things for granted.
Finally, the ugly truth is revealed.
btw foo, why your media pass cannot access free parking? :shrug:
anyway, RM2 only, bagi diorang saja lah! HA HA HA HA
dear ms foo (?)
nevermind the haters, we appreciate the great job you do :)
YOU GO GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey ya! Way to go! It's your blog and you can write whatever things you want to! Legal things of course. :)
Keep it up! We need more spicy gossips! LOL!
U know what, at least we can prepare early to take leave or not used up our leave should we know an event coming up and surely tennis enthusiast dont wana miss it.
so u r doing the right thing!
HCFoo, you are really a dedicated tennis blogger. I salute you for this. Being able to attend all of these events all by your own effort is really something that I admire you for. And also being able to blog about all of these tennis gossips and news frequently is awesome. Thumbs up to you!
err... WTF? why they ask u to remove this post? dun understand a thing abt it! i mean, does it make any harm for them at all??
