That's right ... Davy will play his first match on Wednesday

Meanwhile E. Gulbis just took out D.Young 76(5) 64

 

[wintintu]

why does ljubicic have such a good h2h v nalbandian and will it matter today? 4 straight victories over him now

that may change ... did you happen to see Ljubo play in Croatia Open? Oddly, he didn't even make it to the Final ... maybe HC is more his thing?

Wanted Bellucci to win, oh well.

didnt see it, he's 4-1 hard court over nalbandian. i think it could be tight? and dave might be saving himself this week cos he's played a lot of tennis lately. btw i am so impressed with Lu right now v hewitt - he is a far better player than i gave him credit for

 

[P_Agony]

I don't think anyone will win Cincy. Someone, however, will not lose.

 

[PSNELKE]

Waited for this! Thank you LG.

That's a good point about Nalby, but he may just want to at least push for Round 1 and Revenge! :twisted:

I like Lu, too. Took a set from Fed in Wimby 2009. And he's really started to shine this HC season. Seemed to run out of gas a little in the third against Kohly in Toronto. He looks a little less peppy today than he was last week, losing the first set to Rusty 3-6 ..... He might be thinking save it for USO too.

Was Lleyton at Rogers Cup? cant remember atm

 

[Destro]

Berdych is going to win it. All the top guys are going to tank it around the QF stage.

 

[OKUSA]

Berdych is a top guy

 

[Destro]

Berdych is a top guy

Nah. The top guys are the big 4. Everyone else is a relative nobody.

 

[OKUSA]

That's harsh

 

[wintintu]

wow lu is not happy right now and i see his point - he wants a medical time out now at 0-3 and they wont give it to him for another game or two...

 

[Destro]

That's harsh

Maybe, but its true. If you asked someone who wasn't a tennis fan to name all the active players they know, guys like Berdych would be well down the list.

 

[Love Game]

I was wondering about that. I remember one of the umpires did that to murray in rogers cup 2008 ... told him to wait until it was his serve to call the trainer (Lu probably should have asked for it right after he got broken 0-2). Not all umpires make that same decision.

 

[PSNELKE]

Berdych is a top guy

I doubt he will reach the TOP 5 or win a major, cause imo he shows up a bit too late, I mean he´s already 25 even younger than Nadal, Murray, Djokovic, JMDP, Cilic, Querrey...
I doubt he can beat every of these Top guys at a major event..IMO
I don´t see him reach the SF of a major again..

 

[TennisandMusic]

wow lu is not happy right now and i see his point - he wants a medical time out now at 0-3 and they wont give it to him for another game or two...

He wanted a medical timeout in the first set and they wouldn't give it to him! Lu got totally hosed. Gotta wonder what the heck was behind that decision to keep denying him treatment.

I didn't realize that. That's very bad!

you're welcome!

I wasn't here yesterday, didnt notice until today that there wasn't one yet.

 

[norbac]

I'll be going to the day sessions tomorrow and Thursday, I'll post pics if I can later. Can't wait.

Your so lucky. The schedule or tomorrow is so prime. Hopefully some good streams...... Or not cause I'll be infront of a computer screen all day

How exciting! Nadal, Federer, Nalbandian, Roddick, Djokovic, Davydenko, Richie, Wawa ... all playing tomorrow!!!! WOW

Yeah, a lot of good players out on the court tomorrow, fortunately for me they left most second round matches for tomorrow.

 

[ledwix]

There's something I've been wondering about this. Why is it somehow impossible to show more than eight players of the draw on TV?

Well, these images are from the streams, and my opinion is that the streams piggyback on the atp feed, so these graphics are from the atp. IIRC, they always show the top half and bottom half separately, until they merge ... is that what you were asking? :?:

Forgot to put up the top half results as of today ... so here they are!

 

[veroniquem]

Maybe, but its true. If you asked someone who wasn't a tennis fan to name all the active players they know, guys like Berdych would be well down the list.

My non tennis fan neighbors who only watch football and baseball don't even know who Nadal is, so Berdych, you can imagine...

Berdych is world no. 7 = Top Ten -- that's a winning smile!

 

[Serendipitous]

Go ernee go ernee win a match plz thanks a bunch mister gulbiscuit. :shock:

I don't know why but that pics given me a right fit of the giggles :lol:

 

[rovex]

Good line up today, I see a few upsets like verdasco losing to fish.

 

[mnm]

Is he even favourite in that game?
Ginepri can beat Davydenko, who is rotten bad atm.

Mono-Roddicks gonna has his hands full with De Bakker..

 

[PSNELKE]

What´s up with his hair..? LOL
BTW guys where the heck is Mun, just realized that I´ve not read a thread or a post of him in a while.

Hm sad.. I thought his a fan of "new thread" haha that was epic

I like Troicki, i think he can beat Djokovic. Where is Zagor everyone? He's a good poster.

Troicki has a good serve and looks like he can do some damage recently..I dunno, he has to play constant against Nole to have a chance, certainly a possibility.

zagor's visiting MTF from time to time but haven't seen him there since Wimbledon..

 

[Bud]

Matches starting shortly

- - -

Djokovic is already looking much sharper than in Toronto

zagor has stoped posting here since sani (malakas) was banned... :?

 

[Telepatic]

The problem right now with Djokovic is his serve, it's so slow paced, his motion is awkward too, prone to double faults...

Good serving is often linked with confidence thus this is a serious problem, he needs to fix it, it drags for a while now, good enough against weaker players but not against top ones.

When you're playing against Troicki it just cannot be awkward. :twisted:
Djokovic looking good, will win USO. :twisted: No, but he's looking good right now, really. 3-1

Querrey - Ferrer also seems like a decent match to me.

EDIT: Lengthy rally and great backhand on the run/slide by Djoker.
