Martina Hingis picks up new endorsement from Pablo Escobar
We talk about lots of tennis-related products...but we never had this in mind. Cocaine...Blow...Nose candy...Crack...Wacky dust...Angie...Base...Bernie's gold dust...California cornflakes...Friskie powder...Lady snow...Peruvian flake...Society high...Star-spangled powder...White mosquito...Zip...need more?
What can you say...you hope it isn't true, but you can't help but wonder when you hear comments like this one from Chris Evert:
"I'm not shocked, but I was very surprised...I think Martina in the past has always shown herself to be the consummate professional...But since she came back [from a three-year injury hiatus], I don't know her. I don't know her lifestyle, who she hangs out with. ...You can't believe it, but you can't not believe it. ...You know what, I don't like to make judgments about her. ...But, how many athletes have gone on and denied and denied and denied steroids and stuff. The truth always comes out."
Of all the pros, Hingis would been one of my last guesses, if this is true. If it is, we wish her well and hope she comes out of this OK.
