We still talk about tennis. And much more.

Interesting you should say that. There are several players that ski in their downtime. Sinner, Djokovic, and Vekic come to mind as people who have definitely posted skiing or snowboarding photos or videos as well in recent years. But Roger posted himself skiing in the last 2 weeks and said, nice to be back out skiing after 15 years.
It definitely is. The question is whether that was a photo taken in conjunction with a photo shoot for the vitamin water company or one she took on her current vacation and added the tag because she's a good brand ambassador and the more natural ones like this are better. I think it's likely the latter, but she only tagged them, not a location in that photo like she did in the second one. So was just adding a disclaimer that I'm guessing it's the same location, but don't know for sure.skatingfan wrote: ↑Thu Feb 02, 2023 12:09 amI think the produce tag in the first photo is the bottle of water in her hands.
Sorry, I misunderstood your post. My guess is that she posted the first photo without tagging the location so it could used for advertising the water.JazzNU wrote: ↑Thu Feb 02, 2023 1:13 am It definitely is.

Indeed. And every time I see a tennis player on a slope, I find them brave.JazzNU wrote: ↑Wed Feb 01, 2023 11:59 pmInteresting you should say that.

Yeah, he grew up near ski resorts, his parents worked at a ski lodge. Not sure if he sticks to the safer slopes, he definitely seems like he's capable of the harder ones since he was a competitive skier. But for sure this tells us that even when it's a large contract like he has with Nike, there is not exclusionary language for playing riskier sports like many now have in contracts here. I can't imagine skiing not being part of a clause like that.ponchi101 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 02, 2023 1:48 amIndeed.

Sinner is one good example. Remember he said he had to choose between skiing or tennis, but he has also posted videos of him skiing. His technique is flawless, but I wonder if they stick to green and blue slopes. That is fine. Any black diamond... I would not want to be the coach.
If you're a good skier, black diamonds are why you're there. I'd just wait for retirement as an elite athlete, but I get why they still do it.ponchi101 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 02, 2023 1:48 amIndeed.
