from fed to fed cup (with a spadeator in between)

Roger Federer is on the cover of ESPN The Magazine with tagline: Who’s the World’s Greatest Athlete? Roger Federer Looks the Part.

Click the image above to see a quality video of the photo shoot Fed did with the sports mag.

After the cut: Spadea shows us his t-shirt design skills and The Birmingham News captures some Fed Cup draw images you don’t want to miss.

Vince Spadea was hard at work on CustomInk.com creating the “Spadeator” t-shirt. His design, front then back, is below.

Only Vince would engage in “combat” with “another person or a wild animal”. We’re thinking this dragon looks game for a Spadea challenge.

First: Please notice how awkward this shot of Bethanie Mattek-Sands and Alla Kudryavtseva is. Second: Please notice that the Russian girls are taller, thicker and have spent 7 million more hours playing indoor tennis than the American girls. Full gallery here.
