ARRRRRGGGGGGH ... dave double faults! volandry to serve for the match ---- nalby's physical is better, but his mental sometimes seems more fragile

absolutely didnt see that coming till the very last shot
flippo's final shot that caused the error from nalby was, fittingly enough, a SHBH ... Volandri d Nalbandian 36 63 75 ... ![]() ... now let's see if Bellucci can make it into the SF this year!

Volandri is pure class - experience has given him admirable composure in a match whose winner was decided by just a few strokes.
That match was the best I've seen for 2012! Absolutely scintillating stuff! |

Watching Bellucci here now - he is absolutely useless. No sense of how to construct a point with some kind of element of safety. He just bashes with his sh*t forehand and sh*t backhand and comes in to the net as if he is able to volley when he is actually the worst volleyer i have ever seen.
Actually, I hate all of these little crappy clay court tournaments in south america - players like chela, berlocq, del bonis, bellucci playing crappy tennis. Sorry about the rant - I guess not watching it is the easy solution. I will only watch clay in future if ferrer or some other proper clay court player is in it - other than that i just find it too frustrating to watch. Off to watch Raonic and Harrison now - some proper tennis.
