27

Today is a Birthday of my beloved sad hero - Mario Ancic.

He used to be a tennis player, talented, young and very handsome. He won tournaments, Davis Cup, medals at Olympic Games and the bright future was ahead of him, promising even more. But always there is a "but". In this fairytale it was his health. Injuries, then mononucleosis, long rehabilitation, then injuries again. He couldn't do anything with it though he had a huge wish to play. But he had to retire from tennis at the age of 26. He has a low degree, so now he's going to work and at the same time to help Croatian Tennis Federation and maybe one day he'll become the head of Croatian TF as he was proposed to do.
But today is a happy day, without regrets or sadness, and I want to celebrate it like always have been doing since 2005, when I became his fan. Stay healthy Mario, it's the most important to you now! Live your life, do what you like the most and hope to see you soon :)
