The Filip Peliwo Results Thread

[stringertom]

Just getting this started so we don't post spoilers in the GPPD thread he initiated.

Filip is currently playing a Futures in Merida, Mexico. He drew a Dutch player with decent Futures results and won in 2 TB's. Next up is the #3 seed from El Salvador.

Good luck, Filip!

 

[Prisoner of Birth]

Good idea.

 

[FEDERERNADAL13]

Awesome idea Tom! I'm glad we have a place to congratulate Filip on his wins

 

[thejackal]

Filip doesn't really like it when people spell his name "Philip". But the worst is when people write it "Felipe." We can call him that just to **** him off

Is he playing Arevalo? I know him!

You are correct. It is R16 so should be done but I haven't seen a result yet. Will update when available.

 

[jaggy]

What about flip?

 

[thejackal]

he lost in the semis in doubles with Luis Patino.

won his 2nd round singles match 3-6 6-2 6-1

 

[joeri888]

What was the Dutchman he played?

 

[stringertom]

What was the Dutchman he played?

Kevin Griekspoor.

Congrats, Filip, on the nice comeback Thursday and for finishing with a bakery product. You must have made some nice adjustments.

Next in the QF's is Diaz-Figueroa from Guatemala. Good luck again!

 

[joeri888]

the big Question of course is whether Peliwo is gonna be around at TTW celebrating his 18th grandslam title.

LOL...by extrapolation, Filip should win at least 34 majors, thereby keeping his ratio of junior majors to Fed's intact! No pressure there, Filip!

 

[Goosehead]

vamos filip..winning in 3 from a set down.

 

[stringertom]

Filip has advanced to the SF's with a straight set win over the #7 seed and will face the #8 seed from Mexico. My website for scores (rhymes with SoreTennis.net) was ****y in posting results until today...rain delay??? If so, he may have to play 2 matches today or Sunday in order to complete the tourney on schedule.

Good luck, Filip!

No delays, just a slow site I won today 6-2 6-3 against Gallardo, the 8 seed. Finals tomorrow against a player I know quite well from the junior circuit.

[stringertom]

Thanks for the updates and good luck, Filip!

What Filip didn't mention is his opponent in the finals, Lucas Pouille of France, is on quite a roll at Merida...he qualied last week and won the main draw and has now made it to Sunday again. A tough challenge but I'm sure you're up to it!

 

[stringertom]

Not the result we were hoping for...Filip was beaten 3 and 3 in the final. Good run to get there and I'm sure we'll see a trophy or two hoisted in '13!

Was his first name Lamborghini?

/pathetic attempt at a joke

 

[NLBwell]

Is this on hard court like the previous Mexican Challengers?

 

[stringertom]

These were (are) all HC Mexican Futures...one in Cancun, two in Merida and one this week in Mazatlan.

 

[NLBwell]

Yes, I miswrote. But are all of them on hardcourt?

Four "si, Senor's"!

Filip reflects on his 2012 season:

[DavaiMarat]

The future looks bright for Canadian Tennis

 

[thejackal]

filip will be playing qualies in a couple of futures in florida in the next weeks, then davis cup

USA F1- Plantations, FL
http://itftennis.com/procircuit/tournaments/men's-tournament/info.aspx?tournamentid=1100028276

USA F2 - Sunrise, FL
http://itftennis.com/procircuit/tournaments/men's-tournament/info.aspx?tournamentid=1100028277

Ginepri is in the draw of Sunrise, actually

 

[stringertom]

So he is only one spot out of direct acceptance...that's a shame if no one pulls out bcoz it's probably a 128-draw for the qualies and that means four matches to get in main draw.

 

[pound cat]

Let's just call Filip by his correct name for now. Wait until he gets to the the regular ATP circuit, Then the name game can begin on this board.

 

[JayChu]

So he is only one spot out of direct acceptance...that's a shame if no one pulls out bcoz it's probably a 128-draw for the qualies and that means four matches to get in main draw.

Based on his twitter feed, he got into the main draw. Click here.

Go Filip!

 

[stringertom]

Thanks, Jay! That's a good break for him...hope he takes advantge of it and gains some rankings points for the rest of the schedule. If he stays in the draw past the qualie draw date for F2, he'll get a SE there.

 

[Russeljones]

Great thread.

Filip I wish you all the best for 2013!

 

[Bowtiesarecool]

Filip, are you going to be playing the F4 futures in Palm Coast, FL at the end of this month?

 

[thejackal]

Filip, are you going to be playing the F4 futures in Palm Coast, FL at the end of this month?

he ll be back in vancouver training for davis cup

 

[stringertom]

Filip lost a tight first-round match @F1 Plantation...7-5 in the third.

Good luck in the next event...we're still with you, bud!

 

[Tcbtennis]

I arrived at the Veltri Tennis Center in time to watch the 3rd set. Filip got an early break and looked in control until he served at 4-3. His serve left him and he DF'd 4 times in that game to go back on serve. When he served at 5-6 he DF'd two more times including at match point. I was sorry to see him lose. He's got a really good 1st serve and an aggressive forehand. I hope to be able to see him play at the Weston and Sunrise Futures too. Despite the disappointment on court he managed his emotions very well. Tennis is tough.

 

[thejackal]

didnt see the score till now. filip said he choked and wasnt too happy obviously but this stuff happens. he told me his coaches had him make some technical adjustments on his serve over the holidays, so a few hiccups is normal in the first real match of the yr. F2 in sunrise up next

 

[thejackal]

filip won 4 matches in qualies to get to main draw, gets taro daniel as a first round opponent tomorrow. will be a tough match

Would be a huge win bcoz that should get him a SE spot in the main draw for the next event. Go Filip!

 

[InvisibleSoul]

Looks like Felip won the match today 6-3, 3-6, 6-1

 

[thejackal]

good win against a tough opponent

Fillip wins in 3...

 

[thejackal]

In case anyone is going to be in montreal for the rogers cup, some of our mutual friends are getting a cheering section together for filip's qualifying matches (he should be getting a WC into the qualies)

 

[jaggy]

Into the quarters at The Lexington challenger

 

[thejackal]

two wins over quality players (jp smith and bemelmans are both good on hardcourt and pretty solid all-around players). jaziri will be a challenge but filip is pretty good at figuring players out and moves better than jaziri as far as I've seen.

Very nice...taking advantage of the WC and gaining another 15 points minimum for his rankings! If he can handle Jaziri it's another 14 points. Go Peliwo!
