French Open 2015: Do the young guns stand any chance?

Roland Garros 2015. Everyone is talking about who’s the favourite this year, about whether it’s the end of the reign of Rafael Nadal. The obvious favourites are Djokovic, Murray, Federer…and Nadal. Nadal has won nine French Open since 2005. That was ten-TEN-years ago. He’s still one of the favourites although his form in the last few months…

Rafa, oh dear…

I was excited at the prospect of the Verdasco-Nadal match-up in the third round of the Miami Open.

Cat Snaps, the snapchat for cats

Anyone can take selfies. President Obama at a funeral, Ellen De Generes, Meryl Streep and their friends, your 15 years old neighbour…and cats. Yes. Cats can take selfies.
