NEW COACH FOR THE NEW YEAR

27 Dec 2006 by nana

After working with Yerko Muller for 18 months Pim-Pim has decided to call it quits in favor of a coach able to travel with him. Former ATP player Johan Lansberg has been appointed to serve as his new coach.

Hopefully this is a good choice and we will be able to see some progress in the first tournament of the year, Adelaide (Jan 1-7, 2007). smile

"Pim-Pim" Johansson bryter med tränaren

Tennisproffset Joachim "Pim-Pim" Johansson och tränaren Yerko Müller avbryter sitt samarbete efter 18 månader.

- Jag har inte möjlighet att vara med honom hela tiden och han behöver någon som följer honom p?alla resor. Det här blir bäst för båda. Han är en kanonkille, enormt professionell, med otroligt bra koll p?allt och mer disciplinerad än någon jag stött p? Vi är båda jättenöjda med det vi gjort tillsammans under den här tiden, säger Müller till Länstidningen i Södertälje.

Jobbar hårt

Johansson jobbar hårt för att komma tillbaka till världstoppen efter sina långa skadeuppehåll. Strax före jul reser han till Australien för att träna. Tävlingssäsongen börjar i Adelaide 1-7 januari, turneringen han vann för tv?år sedan.
Sedan följer Australian Open sista tv?veckorna i januari.

Landsberg blir "Pim-Pims" tränare

Förre ATP-spelaren Johan Landsberg blir ny tränare för tennisstjärnan Joachim ¡¨Pim-Pim¡¨ Johansson, skriver Svenska Dagbladet.

?Även om Johan inte har någon tränarbakgrund kan han väldigt mycket tennis och det här känns som en perfekt lösning, säger ¡¨Pim-Pim¡¨ Johansson till SvD.

Landsberg finns med redan p?torsdagen d?Johansson är med i en uppvisningsturnering i Österrike.

Much thanks to Henry for the info!

ATP Masters Madrid

15 Oct 2006 by nana

This week Pim-Pim is playing in the Madrid Masters event where all the top players are competing. It seems like he has an easy first match-up against Argentine Juan Martin Del Potro but qualifiers can be tricky.

Things only get tougher as Davydenko, Gonzalez and Ljubicic (all finalists last week) are lined up in his way to the semis! Hopefully Joachim's serve is on and he can use the fast courts to his advantage smile
