LLEYTON HEWITT MARRIES BECK CARTWRIGHT

[Danyet]

It is hard to compete against Americans in sports. American parents often will start their childs sports carreer while child is in nappies. There are many after school sports programs for kids and a lot of time and money is spent on producing the sports athlete. Parents will buy a coach for their kids as soon as kid shows interest. Therefore anyone who is able to give challenge to an American must be natural athlete.

That happens here to Danyet! You would be surprised to watch some of the parents at local games with their children. I have heard stories about the affects parents competitive behaviour can have on their children.

However there are alot of young sportspeople here that are self-driven.

Bec and Lleyton Hewitt received an early christmas present at 1.45am this morning. Bec gave birth to their first child; a little girl this morning. Congrats!

There must be a baby boom going on. Earlier this week Rod Stewart became a dad again at age 60. His fiancee Penny Lancaster gave birth to a little boy. I wish I had his energy; my goodness I can't imagine sleepless nights now; never mind at 60.
