Cajun, one of Ivan's German shepherd dog bit Marc on his left leg, hard slashing through his jeans and sinking his fangs into Marc's upper thigh, but this did not stop Marc from playing a practice match with Ivan.

The master

Article Abstract:

Roger Federer is a powerful tennis player as he overwhelms his opponents by simply outplaying them and the serve and volley suits him. He uses his psychic serenity to loosen his body and steel his will and creates victories that in turn create more happiness until both victory and happiness conflate in an upward spiral of utter dominance that daunts every other player on tour.
