Louk Sorensen v John Isner – Live Streaming
Wednesday, January 20th, 2010Another win for Louk Sorensen as he makes it into the second round of the Australian Open
Tuesday, January 19th, 2010It really is becoming a dream run for Louk this last few weeks as his hard tennis training is starting to pay off. Louk beat Yen-Hsun Lu in the first round just moments ago in four sets 6-4 3-6 6-2 6-1 . Unfortunately the match wasn’t televised but from looking at the stats, it looked like Louk certainly was playing some good tennis.
I would call this the win of his career so far in terms of player ranking (101) and the scale of the victory. Not only will he gain ranking points, he will also pocket at least 31000 Australian dollars for the victory, a sum of money that will certainly go a long way.
Louk next faces John Isner of the USA. He is seeded 33rd and has a huge serve but can be a bit patchy on both wings at times. Hopefully Louk can do well against him.
Well done Louk!

Have the best news in tennis I’ve heard in ages…
Monday, January 18th, 2010An Irish player has qualified for the Australian Open main draw!!! Louk Sorensen qualified for the main draw by beating New Zealand player Daniel King in straight sets.
He is the first Irish player in over two decades to get into a Grand Slam main draw. He plays Yen-Hsun Lu from Chinese Taipei in the first round whom is currently ranked 101.
Good look to Louk in the first round and I’d love to see him do well and maybe inspire many people.
We had them 100 years ago but not now….

Cork "boi"
It’s happened a few times that it’s becoming a joke..

???
So I decided I definitely have to mention it!
Over the past couple of months, there had been at least 3 attempts to rob ATM machines using a digger. The latest try was last night in Co. Monaghan but the men failed and just managed to damage the wall.
A few weeks ago an ATM machines was actually robbed by the same way, and right across from a Garda station………..
