This past weekend Bendiorm has been the host for one of the playoff for the Davis Cup between Spain and Serbia. The matches were held in an impressive portable stadium and tennis court just outside the Terra Mitica theme park on the outskirts of the city.

The competition had a small set back as high winds on Thursday night caused some structural damage to the stadium which resulted in play being abandoned on Friday but all was put right for the weekend.

Now for us shallow sport lovers, the words Serbian Tennis team, conjures up one image, Novak Djokavic and his inability to keep his shirt on, but try as hard as I can, I can not find one picture of him semi-clad. He had no excuse, the weather was lovely over the weekend hitting 24 degrees with a clear blue sky and let’s face it we assume he was running around the court getting all hot and sweaty.

What’s more Rafa Nadal seems to have re-adopted the long shorts. Now come on boys, you have to play to all of your audiences, not all of us watch for the sport.

Oh and in case you were wondering, Spain won.
