Tennis Ernests Gulbis
Naughty Ernie had other things on his mind besides tennis?
It has been revealed that Ernests Gulbis and his friend were fined and jailed for attempted solicitation of prostitutes. He was caught as he was entering a Stockholm hotel in the company of prostitutes…I just find the image of that in my head hilarious. Shouldn’t poor Ernie have looked to guys like Safin or Moya for advice on this kind of stuff? He did not hold a press conference after his straight-sets loss to Feliciano Lopez. Thoughts?

I think JBP is talking about that strange rapid-fire style interview Pennetta did with a TV show in which she said she would “do a quickie with Safin,” among other things…
When JBP posted a question, I’d thought it a prank ? Gulbis never entered my head. He still looks like a prep school boy at 21.
Yes, he is a boy. No wonder he lost to Feli.
I think he still has a bit of growing up to do, if he were to break into # 20 ranking. He seems to be wasting his talent…oh well.
Do you suppose his father’s wealth is hindering the boy ? Very possibly. What a story for ATP tour after Pennetta’s bold comment..
So JBP’s mystery’s been solved.
