Novak Djokovic vs. Tennis Machine
“Novak Djokovic vs. Tennis Machine” marks HEAD Tennis’ second video ad campaign with the Serbian tennis champ, and after last year’s viral success with over 1.9 million views, they’re hoping Djokovic will surprise tennis fans yet again. Unlike last year’s video that played off Djokovic’s comedic impressions of fellow tennis stars like John McEnroe and showcased his sense of humor, this year’s video exposes a different, more intellectual side of Djokovic off the court that may intrigue his fans that are used to seeing his goofy side. But Djokovic does have a way of doing the opposite of what’s expected, including his pivotal wins at the Davis Cup and emotional loss at Indian Wells.
Novak Djokovic doubles up

Novak Djokovic successfully defended his Dubai Championships title, beating Mikhail Youzhny of Russia 7-5, 5-7, 6-3 yesterday in a rain-delayed final in the United Arab Emirates.
Leading 7-5, 2-0 before rain suspended play on Saturday, the second-seeded Serb won his 17th career title in a match lasting 3 hours, 21 minutes. . . .
Ernests Gulbis became the first Latvian to win an ATP Tour title when he upset second-seeded Ivo Karlovic of Croatia 6-2, 6-3 at the Delray Beach International Championships in Florida.
Alisa Kleybanova won her first WTA title at the Malaysian Open in Kuala Lumpur, beating top-seeded Elena Dementieva 6-3, 6-2 in an all-Russian final.
The 21-year-old Kleybanova dominated the Olympic champion, using her raw power and booming first serve to earn most of her points. . . .
Nicolas Almagro will replace the injured Juan Carlos Ferrero for Spain’s Davis Cup tie against Switzerland on March 5-7.
