Swedish Sex Scandal: Pim Pim said Gulbis confessed it was him!

Sheraton Hotel where the 'players' were arrested.

I'm pretty sure that most of you already know about the latest sex scandal in tennis by now - "two foreign tennis players" were suspected to be involved in soliciting prostitutes before the Stockholm Open.

Investigation leader Jonas Trolle said the players were detained as they entered a hotel in Stockholm early Sunday with their escorts.

According to Sweden’s prostitution law, it punishes those who pay for sex but not the prostitutes.

Despite the on-going investigation, the tournament organiser said they wouldn’t stop anyone from competing in the tournament.

C'mon, we all know Ernie doesn't need to pay for sex...

Now, in the latest twist of the story, Joachim "Pim Pim" Johansson wrote in his blog saying that Ernests Gulbis has confessed he was involved!

Monaco fick sent igår kväll reda på att han blivit anklagad i argentinsk press för att han var den skyldige spelaren som köpt sex under helgen trots att Gulbis redan erkänt."

(Translated into English:) "Monaco found out last night that he was accused in the Argentine press of being the player who bought sex during the weekend while Gulbis already acknowledged. He will probably have a difficult time before the match on Wednesday. I'll try to take advantage of it early in the match ..."
(Updates: It seems that Pim Pim has removed this part from his blog post. Perhaps he didn't realised the commotion he had caused by ratted out Gulbis :P)

Although some media pointed their fingers to Simone Bolelli (he withdrew from Stockholm Open due to personal reason) and Juan Monaco as the second person to be involved, source told me otherwise.


Gulbis' accomplice in that scandal COULD BE Deivids Juksa (or David Juksha as he spelt it in his FB), a former Latvian junior player and Gulbis' hitting partner.

Anyway, so far
all these are just allegations. Probably more details will be revealed in the next few days.

I'll keep you posted.

Anon, we can't say that this info is true but from what Pim Pim has posted in his blog yesterday, that was a huge clue for us.

As for David, this is just an allegation made by a source who has been following Ernie for years.

Let's just be patient and gather more info in these few days.

It is spelled "Deivids Juksa", easy enough to look up if you care to be accurate.

Pimpim whoever he is is the biggest blabbermouth.I hope that his big reveal on his blog about Gulbis is not true and that Gulbis will file a libel case against him as it is defamatory.

Anon, thanks for the correct spelling.

As for Pim Pim, I guess he didn't know the media wasn't informed about the players involved.
