So, what are all of you out there in tennislandia thinking about during this lull known as the indoor season? With Rafael Nadal clinching the year end No 1 (he’s now the third player, including Lendl and Federer to regain the year end top spot after losing it) and chaos reigning on the women’s tour, is there really any question left to answer this season? Any big story left to follow?
How about Bob Bryan’s wedding plans?

According to her Twitter profile, the future Mrs. Bryan Brother is a “Florida attorney, M.B.A. student, tennis lover.” Sounds like a good catch. Hope the Bryan Bros let her sit in the front seat every once in a while.
