Anyone for Tennis?

Our reporter in Saas Fee has just sent us in these pictures from the Swiss resort. The best skiers in the world are training; Bode Miller prepares by playing tennis.
The first race of the season is in Soelden, Austria this weekend.
It seems Bode Miller is keeping in shape on the tennis courts. We took these pictures on Monday afternoon.
"I can't let you have decent one of me as I have to be wearing my branded clothing for all press photographs," he told our reporter, Krystyna Chauncey. She will be up on the slopes on Tuesday and Bode has said he'd be happy to pose for PlanetSKI.
We reported that Bode was in the Swiss glacier resort a few days ago and that he had nothing but praise for the resort. See this related story as he announced that he was re-joining the US team.


"He seemed very relaxed and looked in excellent shape out on the courts on the edge of the village," says Chauncey who also bumped into Chemmy Alcott in the lift queue and she posed for a quick photo (she was in her branded uniform).
"Chemmy was bright and chirpy even though it was 7.30am."
Chauncey will be bringing a full report on conditions in Saas Fee and what the resort is like at this time of year later in the week.
Early start for Chemmy
