Keeping Up With The Karlovic

Our man Ivo Karlovic failed to qualify for this year's Western & Southern Open, leaving The Outer Courts heartbroken and searching for our new Ivo. But the fact of the matter is, there isn't another Ivo Karlovic. We've looked and looked and looked. Ivo is our one and only.

So before things get rolling here today, let's take a look at what Ivo has been up to since we last saw him at Indian Wells, in this new feature titled, "Keeping Up With The Karlovic."


He eats asparagus for two reasons and two reasons only.

Reasons why i eat asparagus: 1.nothing else to eat. 2.so that my pee smell like asparagus.

Why else would he eat it?

He's a big fan of Candy Crush, Words With Friends, and several other iPhone games.

The amount of time I'll spend on toilet depends greatly on the battery life i got left on my phone.

Wait til he discovers the Morphie iPhone case with built-in charger. He'll never stand up.

He's not a fan of you hogging the arm rest.

When it comes to armrest in the airplanes people tend to think they are the chosen ones.

I assume he has issues with the leg room, too.

Yup. He does.

All car,airplane,shoe and clothing companies that don't make their products suitable for tall people should be sued for discrimination.

He should be allowed to call all-time emergency exit row.

He doesn't take it easy on the younger generation.

I play really good. Today in practice i won a set against a 16yo kid.

Enjoy returning that serve, kid.

His chivalry isn't dead.

Its sad how rappers today got no respect for the bitc..s.

There's a lesson for the ladies. Date Ivo, not rappers.

Nicki Minaj reminds him of mistakes he's made in the past.

Listening to Nicky Minaj song 'Did it on 'em'.. And thinking of all the toilets i clogged..

On second thought, maybe he doesn't need the built-in charger.
