Dubai, Acapulco, Delray.....
Who wants to bet against Nadal having another cake draw in Acapulco? Strangely all the other draws are out....except Acapulco.

What are they waiting for? This is ridiculous.

Re: Dubai, Acapulco, Delray.....
Still no singles draw for Acapulco. They did the doubles draw so that must have drained them....A siesta was seriously needed.

They rather ask certain Mr. Toni for his approval to single draw or probably have a siesta all togetherTenez wrote:Still no singles draw for Acapulco. They did the doubles draw so that must have drained them....A siesta was seriously needed.

How about you do the ones for Dubai and Delray in the meantime!

Re: Dubai, Acapulco, Delray.....
Yes I was thinking that too. They want to put Ferrer, Almagro, Stan and Nalby(with his public) on the same side...oh and Horacio as well we never know.

Re: Dubai, Acapulco, Delray.....
Well I was spot on again. Bar Horacio who hopefullly will be taken care bar Almagro Nadal has no-one. Nadal has a guaranteed semi. Hopefully a tired Almagro in the semi and a more tired Ferrer in the final. Nadal's quarter is so funny.
They have placed by hand. Does anyone still believe those draws are real?

The main thing is that Ferrer is going to thrash him there. I don't think he is going to do a Nalbandian.

Well he look tired today so in 7 days of more clay tennis I am not so sure how fresh he will be in that final.

I'm amazed Fed is scheduled to play TOMORROW, usually top seeds skip a round and start roughly on Wednesday, not complaining, though...

Also, surprised Paire chose to play in Mexico ON CLAY after playing all these indoor hard tournaments....surely Dubai organisers can't have turned him down!

Wins the 2nd set with 6:0 and only 47% 1st serve in.

And who is this mummy he is playing against? Are we made to believe he took a set off Federer on one leg? Or did he injure himself during this match?

I don't know I started watching at 3:0 in the 2nd. Weird match. Looks pretty unfit, no wonder his knee caved in.

Did he have this bandage at 3/0 1st set already?

yes, and it kept getting undone, so he was self-fixing it non stop while waiting for serve until the end of that set.Tenez wrote:Did he have this bandage at 3/0 1st set already?

Not a bad player actually. But certainly out of shape.

Berankis now 3 all in the first set tie-break.....Gulbis losing first set tie-break against someone I've never heard of....

Re: Dubai, Acapulco, Delray.....
Gulbis and Berankis going through the same score, just a court apart...both lost the first set tie break, 2 games all in the second. Both from East Europe but with very different stories....fascinating, the beauty of tennis brings them so close!
Wouldn't it be great if they won their matches and played each other in one of the next few rounds

Is Berankis the number 1 seed of the qualifying draw? Hopefully soon he won't have to go through that.

I was wondering what that number one next to his name meant....So do the qualifiers have their ranking, too? Is he number one in qualifying for any tournament or just this one?

Re: Dubai, Acapulco, Delray.....
Just this one I woudl assume.
Makes sense as Gulbis is seed number 3 being ranked lower.

Just had a look to see if there was a stream for Berankis match and saw that poor Mahut is playing at some challenger in Cherbourg....

Re: Dubai, Acapulco, Delray.....
This Rayndols guy seems to be acing at will....poor Berankis, 5 all in the second and probably heading for another TB...and he just saves a match point......and another TB it is!
Gulbis manages to break the other guy and is now serving for the 2nd set, what a live-score thriller!!!

He is
I suppose we'll see him at IW next....hopefully in the draw....does he get any points for going through rounds of qualifying?
Please tell me they get paid something!!!!!

Re: Dubai, Acapulco, Delray.....
Fed's match was strange indeed, saw bits and pieces. It only really started after he got broken in the first set...
On Nadal's return and Acapulco, true the first 2 rounds will be against qualifiers (or almost as 50% chance for R2 but I don;t know the other guy neither...) but I think he might have a (small, but real) test in QF when he meets Bellucci (if it all goes according to seeding), Bellucci

Well I m mot sure Bellucci will go as far really. He has been playing terribly recently.

Beggars can't be choosers ... you never know, he may get inspired; apparently his own Brasilian crowd booed him off the court in Sao Paolo...such is their hate for losers, things can only get better for poor Bellucci now!

What have I missed this morning: Davy demolished (first set bagel) Tipsarevic, Tomic retired against Hansecu and Delpo to start vs Baghdatis...should be back for Nole's match

Delpo survives.. but just by the skin of teeth. I'm not sure he likes playing on faster courts though his indoor record is impressive.

Novak on Dubai court:
"This is one of the fastest hard courts on the tour that I have experienced outdoors. So you need to be really committed to every point and play well."
Sounds very promising, should have a great week of tennis!
