i know you like to cause this board to be littered with such arguments that a person less mentally challenged than yourself would find laughable, but not this time

you're right, those were pretty crappy wins for capra

Tsay's record is more impressive:

Overall Record for Tsay against other top players: 6-4

Date Wins Losses Score
4/11/11 F. Altick ('12) 7-5;6-2
4/11/11 S. Morton ('12) 6-3;6-2
4/11/11 K. McPhillips ('12) 3-6;6-3;6-2
9/5/10 U. Eikeri
7-5;6-0
9/5/10 E. Svitolina
7-5;6-0
8/8/10 J. Pfeifler 6-3;6-0
8/8/10 E. Zabor 7-5;6-2
8/8/10 J. Vrabel ('12) 6-4;6-0
8/8/10 S. Rogers
6-3;6-4
8/8/10 J. Pegula ('12) 6-3;6-2

6-4 (tsay) vs 23-6 and US open rd of 32 (capra)

yes, tsay is much more impressive

with the emergence of dawgie dawg and fedace's continued insanity, this marks mikej's final post under the college tennis section of talk TW

to almost everyone on this forum -
thanks for all the discussions, this has been a fun place to keep up with college tennis - i'll be sure to still drop in to read stuff from time to time and find out what's going on in the college game, and to laugh at the ridiculous arguments that i can think of no other way to rid myself of than to make this retirement announcement (and thus look like an idiot if i come back and post) - yes, i have very little self-control in the realm of internet arguing

and specifically to the uva fans -
i hope someday really soon your guys get that NCAA gorilla off their back - the moment will be that much sweeter when it finally comes now that it's abundantly clear how tough it is to win one (also i'm incredibly envious that you guys have your own forum to discuss college tennis without all the craziness of this one - i'd switch to posting over there if it weren't so UVA-centric)

with that, i'm out - as always, go duke!

Giron won the first round of US Open juniors. 6-4 4-6 8-6 over Sborowitz of Chile

Clemson_tennis · 05-29-2011, 11:51 AM

soory meant French Open

Automator · 05-29-2011, 01:37 PM

The American boys did really well in the first round.

Vinsant, Halebian, Krueger, Fratangelo, Giron, and Novikov all won their first round matches.

Styslinger's the only one left to play, although he faces the two seed.

Some good recruits in the next class, if they don't go pro.

Fedace · 05-30-2011, 03:26 AM

Lauren Herring for Georgia is a good freshman coming in. She is a impact player that will make the team better right away.

Clemson_tennis · 06-01-2011, 12:56 PM

Giron loses. Only American left in Roland Garros juniors is Frantagelo. Is he considering pro? Any ideas where Frantangelo may be leaning in 2 years?

If Fratangelo was smart he would chose Georgia

Fratangelo will be playing the kid who beat Marcos Giron.. let's see how good he really is.. my guess ,he'll go down in two ..

Fratangelo wins 1,1. he beat the same kid 2,0 a couple weeks ago on red clay as well. tennis is all about matchups i guess

Vinsant is the next best, Frantagelo is ovverated and has already peaked.

Based upon his results at the FO juniors, not sure I would say Fratangelo has peaked.

I have heard from a source that Hunter Harrington is the real deal and will likely be a surprise package next year

his results recently would suggest otherwise. but he does have a lot of potential with his tall frame and heavy strokes but ever since he had a great run at eddie herr and orange bowl in 2009 he's been slumping.

Sometimes a recruit just needs a change of scenery and a new coach and teammates and so on. Who turns out well and not well is often a surprise.

About next April I will re-open this thread and start making bold predictions about which recruits were the best.

yes that is very true clark. i remember reading somewhere that peter smith at USC said that he expected steve johnson to battle for a starting spot his freshman year and he ended up playing 2 for them that year and now he's NCAA champion. courtney has also flourished more than expected in college IMO.
