Andrea Petkovic Tennis News

German WTA ace Andrea Petkovic has come good after losing a friendly football bet in her hometown of Darmstadt after she wagered with manager Dirk Schuster that the team would lose their opening match in the Bundesliga. But the player came up short when the side drew Hanover back in the autumn in a first match after being promoted to the top table in the German domestic game.

While it may have taken weeks for the payoff to finally come, Petkovic did the right thing and worked off her loss by serving food in wintery conditions to fans at the stadium.

“I would have rather done it when it was warmer,” Petkovic said. “But standing here next to the grill I guess I’m warm enough!” It was mainly the German staple of bratwurst on the menu, with Petkovic taking her defeat in good humor.
