David Rice (tennis)

David Rice is an English tennis player currently ranked 412 in the world. In 2011 Rice qualified for Wimbledon (in doubles) for the first time.[1]

Bebo controversy

In 2007 Rice had funding and coaching suspended for 'unprofessional behaviour' after a photograph appeared on the social networking site Bebo. Rice's father argued that the episode had been "blown out of all proportion"[2] and that his son "likes the odd night out with his mates, the same as any other 18-year-old."[3]
