 Alex Corretja   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
President of the ATP Tour Player Council in 1997/98, Corretja is known for his grace and sportsmanship on and off the court.
Corretja is a gutsy performer, often under-estimated, who is viewed by many as a top-class typical Spanish clay court specialist.
Corretja loves his country, (hence Davis Cup is a priority), loves his home city and football club (Barcelona) and loves his tennis.

ALEX CORRETJA: Yeah, well, I believe I said already many times that we had a chat, we'd been talking together and we solved our problems, I apologised to him and to Pat already a few times and I think everything is done and now our relationship is just polite and everything.

ALEX CORRETJA: Personally, well, I have got a lot of respect for Aussie people, I think they are pretty open guys and they always treat me really well, and I don't see any reason why they're going to go against me or anything.

Corretja, struggling with form after years in the top ten and now ranked 90th after a freefall in 2003, said agreement must be reached with the ATP to find a safe source of vitamins, mineral supplements and sports drinks which are guaranteed not to be contaminated by illegal, banned substances.
As a result Corretja said paranoia is ever-present in locker rooms, with players afraid to ingest even the most basic of vitamins, which the body needs to replenish from a grinding, almost year-round playing schedule.
Corretja added that he takes an allergy medication, ointment for chapped lips, a multivitamin, two vitamin C tablets and one or two magnesium tablets each day.
