Spanish federation to sue French TV for Nadal skit


MADRID (AP) -- The Spanish tennis federation says it plans to sue Canal Plus France for using its logo in a video that poked fun at Rafael Nadal.

In the video skit on Les Guignols (The Puppets) satirical program, a life-size cartoon figure of Nadal is shown urinating into a gas tank before racing off and being pulled over by traffic police for speeding.

A message of "Spanish athletes. They don't win by chance" flashes across the screen, surrounded by the logos of the tennis federation and other Spanish sports groups.
