It appears that hes win over Safin last yr was no fluke. The Russian has a breathtaking forehand, the whip and racket-head acceleration is quite staggering. He definitely has one of the best technicial and agressive forehand around. Furthermore hes backhand is pretty solid and he has a huge serve. It seem he is quite a physical specimen, abit like fellow countryman Safin. I think he has the weapons to upset Grosjean and make the q-finals. He has been plagued by injuries, but he has beaten top players like Ancic and Guga (US Open) in the past. He also resembles Jim Courier slightly.
