I mean that would explain her results, but still... maybe someone made it up exactly after seeing Petra's results.

Petra's non-denial denial will just add to the gossip.

Yeah, I have to agree with you guys. She would have denied it if she could have. Here's the "details" from Twitter (translated to regular English): Matt Cronin @tennisreporters 2h
Concluding Czech romance news, Kvtiova confirms split from longtime BF Adam Pavlasek, no comments on Stepanek rumor, wants to focus on Wimbledon.
To clarify, exact statement from Kvitova: "I'm aware of rumors but prefer not to talk about my private life. Wimbledon is most important tournament for me, would like to play my best, focus on winning, please respect my wish not to comment on my private life during tourney'Sorry, but I can't imagine that Kvitty, who's always been the quiet, limelight-avoiding type. is going to play anywhere near her best now that this sh!t has h!t the fan. Wonder what the betting odds will be on her losing in R1.

Most astounding to me, as to everyone on Earth, is this man's seemingly endless ability to make SEWTA ladies swoon. Engaged to Hingis, married to Deadisova, now wooing Kvitty -- but I think I've missed a few. I guess they all speak Czech, though? Keep a close eye on Lucie, dear Kvitty!

That is pretty much what I meant about his entire existence being absurd.
It's not that he's a normal-looking guy with some odd command over ladies, a story as old as sitcoms have been around. HE IS HIDEOUS.

Well, just ... wow. As for all these theories floating around on TF about Stepanek's great sexual prowess (see Corswandt's post) -- err, you've got to get a girl interested in you in the first place before they can learn about those skilz. AND THIS IS THE STEP NO ONE GETS. Sure, once he attracts someone, he can keep them for a while by rocking their innocent world, but that's not the big question. Seriously, I think the guy must be a hugely sympathetic listener, as well as very funny, and lots of fun to be around. And European women might not have the North American obsession with looks.

The biggest mystery here is not even how fugly Sexxxpanek got Kvitova's attention. It's: why do you bother with a man that is going to dump you within the next 2-3 year for a younger WTA player once he'll be bored of you? You could argue that Kvitova just wants a summer fling or something, but then, 1) why Stepanek and not a semi-decent looking dude? 2) why the man who married Vaidisova and just got divorced (= not good for Kvitova's image) 3) why why why.

From stuff with Radek off the court, he has more humor and charm than the average ATPer. But, really he's just followed the playbook that "players" do. Bang the popular girl (Hingis, any influence there?) and then some will automatically follow, usually those who envy those popular girls and have such confidence issues. Nikki definitely fit in the former, and Petra the latter.

That could be. Or Radek may just have ... THE KAVORKA!
As for R. Black's comment: Are you kidding, no one EVER thinks their new flame is going to treat her the way he treated others. He LOVES me, and he never really did love them! I'm the one! He'll settle down now and love me forever exactly the way he loves me today! Love really is blind.
As for Petra's image: well, if RS and NV split, and only later on did RS and PK hook up, she hasn't done anything wrong. Divorced men and women are fair game.

Isn't Radek really unpopular on the ATP Tour? Like, they just think he's an unsporting weirdo.
I guess he might have some sort of "elder statesman of Czech tennis" thing going on?

He is an unsporting weirdo, so probably.
Czech tennis girls seem to flock to male players or other athletes (or they're gay), might be something with their culture.

I don't think Radek is hideous, he's just odd looking. Still, yes, it's confusing. I assume that he's a good conversationalist, paired with the fact that he obviously puts himself out there on the prowl with young WTA players. Good for him! I mean, they're all legal, right? This could be much grosser.

If you can get past Radek's busted mouth, he's quite attractive. Other than the age difference, I think him and Petra make sense. He did well with Nikki, though.

Well he does have a nice body and as Burley says: Faces NOC I don't even think he has that good a body. It's nothing special in a sea of gentlemen with actually special bodies. He's at the bottom there. And then discount the face if you must: Awkward Flopsweat Problem. Awkward Hairline. Awkward Body Hair grossly peeking out of ill-fitting ugly outfits. He is the second-least attractive Regular Top 50/100 player, just barely ahead of Davydenko. If that.

I think Petra looks stunningly beautiful in the pics I posted - better than Nikki V for sure but miles below Tina.

Martina walked by me at RG. Still looks good! She was rocking a good hair day at the time.

Unless he comes from money, certainly yes. Still, I assume that he's not doing too badly for himself.
