Ambassador Becker

So Boris is quite the ambassador these days! In his passionate and unrelenting efforts to raise the profile of Tennis across the globe, Becker confirmed he is setting up a tennis academy in partnership with Riffa Views Signature Estates in Bahrain.

Construction of the academy, which will bear his name, is expected to be completed by next summer.

The three-time Wimbledon champ spent last week in the kingdom playing in a charity golf event, attending the finals of the Riffa Views Cup, holding an autograph session and looking hot!

He plans to play an active role in the academy and travel to Bahrain several times a year to personally coach its students. I love his commitment!

Boris Becker Wins Again!

What Boris Becker wants, Boris Becker gets. And he doesn't waste any time either. As recently reported, Boris has been troubled by the way his daughter Anna was being consistently paraded in front of the media by her mother, "model" Angela Ermakova. He voiced his concerns in a courtroom in London on Wednesday and ultimately won joint custody of the seven year old.

Ermakova and Becker never had a proper visitation schedule and every time he wanted to spend time with his daughter, he had to seek Ermakova's premission to do so. Now he has won the right to unite all of his children on a regular basis. You can read the full story here. Game, set, match: Becker!!

Boris Becker worried about daughter

Yes, Boris is worried about the way his daughter Anna is being put on show, and rightfully so! In an article published in this week's edition of German Stern Magazine, Boris is critical of Anna's mother "model" Angela Ermakova. Again, I won't rehash how little Anna was conceived. Here's a link to an english article that basically wraps up how he feels.

Ermakova really bugs me, I hate to even give her press in this blog. She parades Anna around for attention and then doesn't even have a proper visitation schedule set up with Boris! Man she bugs, I'm glad Boris is speaking out about it.

I Still Dig Him

And last but not least...in an attempt to be objective in my "reporting" I just had to include this pic.

I still think he's hot. Even while he's picking his nose and wearing a velvet jacket. Check out what the folks at Best Week Ever had to say.

Boris & Lily, Together Again

And finally, what we've all really been waiting for - pics from the MTV Europe Video Music Awards in Munich yesterday!!!! It's been a while since we've seen 'His Hotness' out on the town with his lady friend, but here they are and they didn't disappoint.





Boris Becker and the lovely Sharlely "Lily" Kerssenberg were in attendance as Boris was a presenter at the annual awards show. Damn, German royalty at it's finest.

You think she'd maybe trade places with me? Even just for a day?

Boris the Humanitarian

Whoops, I spoke too soon. Here he is meeting Nelson Mandela the day after shooting hoops. Ok, I guess I have to give the media some time to do it's job.

Boris Shoots Hoops

How come when Boris Becker does something good, you hardly hear about it? I had a really hard time finding even a mention of his trip to South Africa as part of Peace Players International, and when I finally did find an article, it wouldn't let me rip the pic from the site.

But here he is shooting hoops in Durban last week. Click the link if you'd like to see him flex his skills on the court. Boris said his secret passion was always basketball. I'm glad we got to see him in his tennis shorts instead :-)
