Donald Young and smoothness
We often talk about athletes and how smooth they play. It doesn't always work in tennis. Connors and Nadal are certainly not smooth, they grind and go crazy, but they are 2 of the all time greats. On the other hand, Donald Young is very, very smooth. He moves gracefully, flows with his beautiful forehand and natural volleys. But he misses lots of easy shots and loses all the time. I don't know if his problem is mental or what. He's a mystery.

In touring pro terms that is poor. How much (if any) do you think will be left after expenses?

Jamie Baker (Eastbourne)Mikhail Youzhny (Wimbledon)
Michael Russell (Newport)Steve Johnson (Atlanta)Andreas Seppi (Olympics)
Jeremy Chardy (Toronto)
Oh yeah, a very impressive list. 2-3 fairly good players, the other ones are either semi-retired or never made it. I've heard somewhere the highlighted names, but can't associate them with faces for my life sake.

If you don't know Goffin, Darcis , Ryan Sweeting , ... you're not really following tennis at all ..
Goffin, a youngster, made an impressive run at RG this year and this was widely higlighted by ATP website.
Darcis, who took down Berdych in the olympics and made 3rd round.
...
Just saying these aren't just some random players

I wonder if JMac has his tail between his legs?

I'm conflicted on if I want to see DY break it... I mean this record means more to Vince's legacy than it does to DY's.

It had to happen.
21, with Vincent Spadea between October 1999 and June 2000.

Unbelievable how often DY has given the match away during the streak. It's almost like he's trying to beat Spadea!
Now on to the Winston-Salem Open: http://www.winstonsalemopen.com/players/?intloc=headernav
