Verdasco’s best friend, Feliciano Lopez, may lack some of his skill but is equally easy on the eye.
Another perfectly proportioned 6-foot-2 left-hander, his longer hair, golden skin tones and brilliant blue eyes hint more at Italian than Spanish.
But the angular profile and strong nose and jawline pronounce his true home.
Feli and Fer—as the pair call themselves—stirred many hearts when they teamed up for the doubles rubber against Argentina in 2008: surely one of the most eye-catching pairings on the tennis tour.
—OK, a little heavy on the hyperbole, but there is truth in them thar superlatives.

“Roger is, we have a relationship and was tough moment for him. I can’t enjoy 100 per cent the victory because I saw him cry. I wanted to show him that I was there as a friend as well. I felt how hard it was for him at this moment and I just wanted to comfort him a bit. I had tears in my eyes as well. It’s what makes sport great.”
fucking classy as hell. haters of either of them can swiftly proceed to the left.

It was a mixed feeling. I was going to save that kiss for the finals if we won, but when Igor ran out onto the court after my match and I saw his golden locks fluttering through the air, “Dancing Queen” by ABBA rang in my head. It was so romantic!!! All I heard was, “Dancing quuueeeen…..” and time froze still! Our lips locked, dizziness filled my entire body and I felt like I was floating on air. I bet Mark Wahlberg knows exactly what I mean. It’s a feeling that money can’t buy, “Anybody could be that guuuuuuy…Night is young and the music’s hiiiiigh… with a bit of rock music, everything is fine…” I could have played another five-setter after that scene, “…Only seventeeeeen… feel the beat from the tamboooouriiiineeen… Oh yeaaaaah…”

Nikolay Davydenko: They’re all really nice: Federer, Nadal. All of the guys in the top 100 are cool. But if you asked me which one was the best looking I’d say Feliciano Lopez. Everyone thinks he’s gorgeous, with his blue eyes and curly hair. — REALLY Kolya? REALLY?
Roger: “Did I say that?”
Stan: “It’s written on your website!”
Roger: “Are you telling me what I’ve written on my website?”
Stan: “I’m telling you that you are going to be there!”
Roger: “Well, this is your home, you are the one in command…”
Stan: “Yes, I am! I would be very happy if you are there at the first round.”
Roger: “You never told me that, that changes everything… — Roger & Stan, discussing Roger’s participation in Davis Cup. oh boys, why so cute?
Stanislas Wawrinka: He calls me every day, even several times (smiles). That’s nice. — Aww, so sweet of you Roger!
