with a wicked glint in his eyes, full of talent, full of passion.

Marat Safin is a great tennis player. He's got the talent and everything.
But he has one major weakness, his temprament.. I think he should really
pressed his anger and his frustration to the lowest level when he's on the
match..
Well, udachi Marat..
sometimes tennis is just tennis..
