Sania Mirza 2013

[PKBasu]

Congratulations to Sania (and Bethanie) for winning a prestigious tournament, beating a string of strong teams.

(Last week's defeat to Stosur/Raymond should be considered in perspective: that was an incredibly strong pairing; this week, our pair took the title despite being unseeded, which makes it all the sweeter).

Congratulation for Sania and Bethanie for their second title of the year in this prestigious tournament ... Sania and Bethanie has played 20 tournaments together and they have now won all four finals they have entered ... It was the 12th title for Bethanie Mattek-Sands and the 16th title for Sania Mirza.

The doubles final is at 5pm today -- ie, about 4 hours from now! Sania also has some nice photos on her FB page that show her clowning around with Diego Maradona! This must have been after yesterday's SF.

Congratulations to Sania for winning this big title. Hopefully, this will give team enough confidence to do well at big tournaments in Indian Wells & Miami. Great that we have 2 players winning title on main tour on mens & womens side.

I thought she her singles career was done a long time back.

P.S. Why the heck is Maradona wearing a watch on each wrist?

Kyonki woh ab sirf do ghari ka mehman hai.

Translation -- Because he is only going to be around for two more ticks of the watch.

Sorry, don't mean this literally, just got reminded of a poor Ajit/Robert joke and couldn't resist. I wish Maradona the best of health and a long life.

As long as he's not a two-timing "hand of God" goal scorer!

P.S. Why the heck is Maradona wearing a watch on each wrist?

1. Redundancy results in high availability.
2. If he is looking to the right, you can look down and see the time. If you are looking to the left, you can do the same. You don't have to move your neck/head to look to the other side. This results in better efficiency and less energy consumption. Therefore, he will eat less. Hopefully, that is true for even Maradona. This practice is thus green and will reduce climate change. Thus, we will have less wars between oil seeking industrialized nations and the oil producing nations and their neighbors. As you see, everything can be tied to world peace. Peace.

Got too tired to complete the top 10 list. This must be the shortest top-10 list in the history of mankind. I will check the Guiness Book of World Records and confirm later. Bye for now.

My contribution to Prasen's list:

3. One watch is set to Argentina time and the other to Dubai time. Addition/Subtraction is not his strong point.
