Gotta agree with both of you :(

I want Jurgen to win, but I think David is more motvated to do well here in Barcelona, where he has family and friends. Love to watch Melz play, so I'll enjoy the match regardless of the outcome, but unless JM can channel some of those FO 2010 vibes PLUS if he's completely over his back problems, then Ferru will probly win ... Hope Melzer can at least take a set off DF ... just think Daveed has too much desire and strength atm :neutral:

OTOH, here's hoping that win over Roger last week finally becomes the charm! ;)
 
Maybe if David smacks Jürgen again he will think twice next time about killing him on clay. And he is from Valencia, not Barcelona, LG.
 
Yeah I learned my lesson from Monte Carlo.

Ferrer over Melzer in 2.

Plus there's the potential if Ferrer, Nadal and Lopez win, it will be an All Spain Semi-Final and Final.

You can't script it any better than that.

Feliciano Lopez has to beat Dodig.

Nadal will get by Monfils easily.

Ferrer should take out Melzer in straights.

And it really doesn't matter who wins out of Ferrero/Almagro, though I do sense Ferrero pulling the upset.

Go jump with the koalas, you Austrian! Ferru will win, because he feeds off platypuses.

I really wanted to know how does it feel to mistake Austria for Australia...
