Which man will win Pilot Pen?

[Tchocky]

Last tournament before the U.S. Open. Pretty good field. Davydenko is the defending champion.

P.S. No live streaming. ESPN begins coverage on Wednesday with both men's and women's coverage.

Not sure Tchocky...haven't seen the draw yet...do you have a link?

 

[NamRanger]

Too easy, Davydenko the machine. He outgrinds everyone here.

 

[<3Tennis]

gotta go with blake.

 

[Topaz]

The J-Block will help James get through IMO.

 

[Dimonator133]

James should withdraw

if he doesn't, I hope he loses early for his own sake

Here's the Main Draw. Qualifying had a pretty strong field too!

 

[Kim]

How the hell can they join this? Meaning no rest before the US OPEN? These players must really NOT LIKE their chances at the US OPEN at all..

 

[Baghdatis72]

Blake should win it but with the US Open coming close I think Mathieu has a good chance.

 

[J-man]

James is playing very well and has lots of confidence (regardless of whatever happens on Sunday) and the crowd (J-block) will be 110% behind him. But it is a hard choice. Maybe Blake if he continue his good play

Davydenko won here last year and made it to the semis at USO.

 

[vive le beau jeu !]

for the sunday start, interesting match (only ?) on court 1 between 2 young players : JWT vs JMDP.
allez Jo-W !

 

[MEAC_ALLAMERICAN]

Maybe Davydenko to repeat as champion, but who knows?

 

[tennis08tarheels]

Donald Young takes the court in a few minutes for his first-round match with Amer Delic.

 

[Zaragoza]

Delic took the 1st set 6-4 but Young leads 3-1 in the 2nd.
I didn´t expect Young to push Delic so much, Delic is good on hardcourts.

 

[ilovecarlos]

With this draw, I think James has a rally good chance...if he can't win it with the "big guns" missing...then he'll probably never do it at all.

 

[J-man]

Delic took the 1st set 6-4 but Young leads 3-1 in the 2nd.
I didn´t expect Young to push Delic so much, Delic is good on hardcourts.

Young has made some good strides. I don't think he will win the match but he has improved

 

[plain jane]

Young has made some good strides. I don't think he will win the match but he has improved

young won the match 4-6,6-3,6-4

 

[bagung]

now, everyone is in the same league.....

 

[Fedace]

Any Live streaming of this tourney??

 

[jelle v]

I voted Mathieu.. Guy has been on fire for the last few weeks.

 

[wyutani]

the lefty donald young of course mate......

 

[equinox]

blake ad the j-block. THIS IS HIS TIME OF YEAR.

 

[J-man]

His only time is the Us open and Pilot Pen and nothing else

 

[diegaa]

up next: Chucho against Hrbaty. Go José!

 

[cujays]

go d young!!

 

[Moose Malloy]

does anyone know if this tournament ends on Saturday or Sunday? Because they are making the winner of the Becker/Isner match(rained out last night) play 2 matches today, which is strange considering how early in the week it is.

The women's final is scheduled for Friday and the men's final is scheduled for Saturday. The tournament started Sunday so they should be able to finish on Saturday. The women's draw is only a 32 player draw while the men's draw is 64.

 

[Moose Malloy]

thanks. men's draw is only 48 actually.

 

[diegaa]

is there a rain delay or something?

 

[tguru]

Women's final is Saturday afternoon. Men's final is Saturday evening.

 

[Fedace]

The J-Block will help James get through IMO.

I want a white or Red J-block shirt.

[htrain]

verdasco all the way

 

[Tchocky]

verdasco all the way

Fernando drops the 1st set against Spadea. Up a break in the 2nd.

 

[Fedace]

Fernando drops the 1st set against Spadea. Up a break in the 2nd.

I was surprised how much spadea had improved lately, he is clocking his serves at 120mph. do you guys know what matches they are going to show on ESPN today??

 

[diegaa]

acasuso was serving for the match but got broken. 5-5 in the second now.

 

[diegaa]

acasuso breaks back! 6-5 on serve.

 

[diegaa]

double MP CHUCHO

 

[diegaa]

GSM Acasuso, 6-1 7-5. Good win for him.

 

[whatsgood4u]

is hewitt playing, cause if he is i think that he'll win. if n ot then def blake will win

 

[diegaa]

and calleri wins!!!!!!!!!!! he came back from a 2-4 in the 3rd. 64 36 75 for him

 

[300Gkid]

yeah i saw that calleri ginepri match. WOW calleri has a huge serve, but he;s not that consistent. Lol and the crowd (me included) was completley biased toward robby. It was almost silent after he lost the match

 

[Starlite]

Wow, good job Stan for beating Monfils! Wawrinka d. Monfils 76(5) 64. :mrgreen:

he has more than a good serve. you know, a beatiful 1hbh and impressive acceleration on his baseline strokes, specially his fh. when he is on, he is a top 10 material (although he is on every once in while).

 

[Ripster]

I'm picking Verdasco, he has the talent to do it.

 

[diegaa]

fish destroyed acasuso in the third. a bagel delivered!

 

[dunlopfan]

I voted for James, but if Mathieu can play like he did against Canas in Montreal, then he will win for sure!

 

[GRANITECHIEF]

James down a set and a break. I wonder if subconciously he'd be happy to be out of the tourney. Another match tonite if he were to win this match and so on. Doubt it but the subconcious can be a funny thing.
