Share:
Dave Hughes appeared rather down in the dumps as he took to the tennis court for a hit on Tuesday. The comedian, whose radio show was axed from 2DayFM back in August, looked downcast as he spent the warm day rallying with a friend in Melbourne. Hughesy, 54, showed off his athletic prowess in a red T-shirt and black Nike gym shorts.

Staying sun safe, the funnyman shielded his face with a black cap and was quick on his toes in a pair of black running shoes. He also appeared to be tracking his outdoor workout with a smart watch. It has been a year of mixed fortunes for Dave after his Hughesy, Ed & Erin 2DayFM breakfast show sensationally come to an end in August amid spiralling ratings and 'commitment issues'.

2Day FM announced the axing of its trio of hosts on August 8, informing listeners that they opted to pull the plug on the show and replace it with night shift larrikins Jimmy Smith and Nath Roye, who were hosting The Jimmy and Nath Show. The announcement came that evening with the embattled hosts given one more show the following morning to finish up - but they decided against going back on air.
