LOL It looks like there are only 4 Swiss fans there this year as they keep showing them everyday.
Aw bless them, are they decked out in the flag?

Even Sue doesn't go that far.
Well she is just amateur hour, she should be ashamed of herself.

Swiss flags, t-shirts, sunglasses, hats, headbands. The works. You name it, they are wearing it. Their patriotism knows no bounds.

What are you going to do when he comes back? That's some serious laser treatment coming your way!

Sue has no class.

i will use the black as a backdrop to highlight the glorious listings, in shining gold, of all his future wins the black will make the gold really 'pop'

Couldn't agree more Jenny *re-covers self in bin liner of mourning*

Everyone is in mourning for Roger and Rafa. I'm wearing black until January 1st, some days I even wear a veil.

You'll both be pleased to hear that the official period of mourning ends on 29 December in Abu Dhabi.

I am wearing normal clothes having taken a more understated approach with a small Rafa 'advent' calendar. Less is more I think. (She says, wearing her Rafa pyjamas - sitting in her Rafa themed boudoir.....)

He's shaved his head apparently. Possibly a hair transplant :

It's just shaved at the sides and probably back and yes, his Facebook confirms that it's preparation for a hair transplant - some specialist salon revelling in the publicity.

But more importantly, the boy is back practising. Hopefully the wrist is fully healed now.

I'd be surprised if he did go down that road. Depends how self conscious he is about it, I'd assume he just had enough and decided to get rid. But if Agassi can play in a wig rather than show his hair then anything is possible.

Edit: Just seen Jewels' post so yeah it is for that.

Jewels just posted that he's confirmed he's having a hair transplant on his FB page.

You posted before I edited my post, rude.

It must be embarrassing for him, I hope it works.

Sorry, it's actually on the salon's Facebook with pics of Rafa and the owner.

I'm guessing that it is image related as well as a personal ego thing. I've heard it said that some like Rafa because of his looks which is really shallow obviously.

Not really. He's backcombing his hair from the back now to try and cover his ever growing bald spot.

Rafa must have given his permission for his photo to be used. He's probably getting a free hair transplant out of it.
