If there's one thing that can inspire you to pick up your racket and get out on the tennis court, it will be watching the big names battle it out in an action-packed fortnight of Grand Slam tennis at the Australian Open, which starts today.
Starlet Anna Kournikova, sporting a new tattoo on her back, defending champion Jennifer Capriati and powerhouse Serena Williams will be among the ladies vying for the championship title in Melbourne.
World No 1 Lleyton Hewitt will fight through the men's draw in a bid to hold the winner's trophy in front of his home crowd, after he was flawed by chicken pox last year.
But will he get past mighty Russian Marat Safin, old-timer Andre Agassi, Spaniards Roger Federer and Carlos Moya and latest Asian hotshot, Thailand's Paradorn Srichaphan?
