More pics comin’ around of what the guys are wearing at the Aussie Open. This time, it’s Novak Djokovic‘s adidas kit — part of the Spring ’08 line we wrote about earlier.

Not being able to read articles in l’Equipe is one big reason I regret not learning French. (The other? Not understanding all of Eddie Izzard‘s stand-up routines.)

While it might be the case that this past weekend’s Davis Cup title was invisible to most Americans (there was lots of football to be watched), there’s no doubt that the fans who got to see it live were having a blast.
More photos after the cut…
Andy Roddick puts up his feet after a job well done (contributing one point in USA’s 4-1 win over Russia in the Davis Cup finals). Here he is watching Sunday’s dead rubbers.
Scorelines: Doubles specialist Bob Bryan lost to Igor Andreev 3-6, 6-7 (4), while James Blake beat Dmitry Tursunov 1-6, 6-3, 7-5.
