Craciun is the Romanian for Christmas, while the Dacians were the tribe of people that lived in that area before the Romans. Don't know anything about his tennis though and hoping that Josh's revival will start here.
So we want to wake up to good news in the morning then. That doubles result isn't very promising, but hopefully it was a loss born out of either the other player not being very good or them being unable to work together as a new partnership and not because of anything Goodall was doing!

Interestingly enough "Weintraub" means 'Crying Robbery' in German.
Rubbish! Where on earth did you dredge that up? If you were trying to split the compound noun into its component parts to get the meaning, you split it in the wrong place: Wein (= "wine") + Traube (= "grape")! Weintraube, the compound,means "a bunch of grapes" or simply "grapes"! The closest you're going to get, if you choose to go down that particular road, will be "the grapes" [of wrath], should Goody lose!
