Former French Open Winner in the Field
Level 4
: 150/300, 0 ante
Back at the Latin American Poker Tour Grand Final in Rosario, Argentina, we saw Gustavo Kuerten try his hand at poker. For those who may not be familiar, Kuerten is a retired former World No. 1 tennis player from Brazil. Winner of the French Open three times, between 1997 and 2001, and was the Tennis Masters Cup in 2000, Kuerten seems to be taking his poker seriously after retiring from tennis in May 2008 after 12 years on the international tour. In fact, one could say he swapped one tour for another.
Kuerten, who is seated at the same table as November Niner Matthew Jarvis, hasn't gotten much going yet today. He is holding steady right around the starting stack with 28,000.
