(I don´t want to study... LOL) WTF??!! "Hewitt, Safin, Roddick to be fined for skipping 2005 Masters Cup"
SHANGHAI, East China, Nov. 9 (Xinhuanet)- World tennis stars Lleyton Hewitt, Marat Safin and Andy Roddick will be fined for their withdrawal from the upcoming 2005 Masters Cup which starts in Shanghai on Sunday.
ATP Vice President Brad Drewett said here on Wednesday that injury is common for players in competitive sports such as tennis,and that their withdrawal should be understood.
But the three players will be fined, Drewett added.
Shanghai, which hosted the 2004 Masters Cup, firstly saw Australian Open champion Safin's withdrawal from this year's final tournament with a knee injury.
Then, 2002 Masters Cup titlist Hewitt decided to skip the tournament because his wife will give birth to a child.
In this morning, World No. 3 Roddick confirmed that he would not come to Shanghai due to an injury on his back. Enditemnews.xinhuanet.com/english/2005-11/09/content_3756948.htm

yeah and like Marat is STILL going there to do promotional work and help out...and Hewitt??? What do you expect a man to do? Leave his pregnant wife and let her have their first baby while he is hitting the ball on the other side of the world? And Andy?? It's not like he is faking it or anything... What idiots...

You so right Annie ...The ATP means, as I even understand, to present the players first. But they don't anything to protect or support them. Under these circumstances I can absolutely understand why some of the players won't anything to support of some of the ATP actions....
