teaserboy Jul 12, 2005	to be honest, that one was dumb. plus it make no sense, it was more frustrating than fun
sweetime Jul 28, 2005	well i disagree - i thought it was brilliant, i was just depressed that as an aussie i STILL didn't get it!!!
colhollywood Aug 28, 2005	I was trying to come up with a player whose first name started with EE and ended in SS. The puzzler was poorly worded, I thought.
tnewton Sep 07, 2005	Have you noticed that NOBODY actually watches TENNIS???!!!
smarty_blondy Sep 25, 2005	tnewton, alow me to disagree. i not only watch tennis but also play it and, consider this to be a very good teaser. In fact, the play with words makes it interesting and quite creative as well. I had a lapsus at first, all i could think of was Sharapova but, managed to clear it out. Keep them coming!

grungy49 Sep 02, 2006	This was a cool teaser I couldn't get it at first but once I read the hint it was easy.
