ANKE Huber knows that in press conferences, she won't face any personal questions - WTA officials cut them off as soon as they surface. But at 'Autograph Island', where the fans get to hang around with visiting pros, there is no censorship, so an admirer asked Huber if she and Andre Medvedev are still an 'item'.

'Ah, I thought you would ask about that,' Huber said, squirming. 'No, we are good friends, that's all.' Autograph Island is where the fans get to mingle with their idols - when they idolise them.

MaliVai Washington was signing autographs when a nine-year-old kid named Trent told him: 'I think me and my cousin could beat you.' After 15 minutes of debate over who was better, Washington and the two kids took to a nearby court and settled it, Washington beating them in an hour.
