I lost all respect for Nalbandian as a player and as a person the day that he spat at Hewitt a few years back.

Nalbandian spat at Hewitt. 100% positive.

As did Nalbandian...

but Nalbandian has also spat at Hewitt in a game.

Srsly.

i will concede your point about gonzalez.i know his loss drops him out of top twenty but you make it sound like there is something wrong with davydenko continually making quarter finals.
i will bookmark the page and reply when gasquet wins a tournament this year.
i still think kolschrieber has a lot of work to do but tsonga he looks the goods.
whatever happened to nicholas escude anyway?

masters series atleast i meant.Not small tournament.

My point about davydenko is his shit record against top 10 players.Check it out yourself.This is the main reason why he cant make the finals in a big tournament.

Escude retired, after suffering a horrible knee injury.It was so sad cause he such a good player and he killed hewitt everytime they played each other lol

 

[TIGER ROCKET]

let's hope the grunter is finished quickly and they go back to tsonga/gasquet.

 

[Ricketts]

Tipsarevic and Kohlscreiber should be in the top 10 soon.

Kohlscreiber Top 5.

Let's not go over the top or anything.

It's ridiculous.

Missing a brilliant match of tennis between Gasquet and Tsonga to show this shit

Channel 7 are awesome.

How pathetic is womens tennis......the difference between the 5th seed and the 11th seed? 6-2 6-0

They shouldn't even get half the money men get.

after the great men's matches we have seen, a fourth round match finishes 2 and 0.dementieva should be ashamed of herself.

Cant wait for hewitt djokovic match tomorrow.Hewitt pushed him all the way at wimbledon.. although nole will win tomorrow, i dont think it will be straight sets anyway provided he he is fit after yesterdays drama

 

[Catt2Attack]

Just end this thread now. Nadal will win the tournement and wont loose a set untill he makes the final. Who can beat him now?

Federer maybe??

 

[Escude]

Gasquets gone...as i said, he drops the ball way too short with that forehand.

hes forhand always breaks down. too many unforced errors.

 

[ShearMagic9]

Jo-Wilfred Tsonga is a gun though

Knocked my man Andy Murray out in the first round and always impresses me with the way he plays.

 

[Aker39]

What time tonight will tomorrows schedule come out.

 

[Escude]

Davydenko is gone..at the first sight of a quality player.Exactly like i said.The guy doesnt deserve to be in the top 10.

 

[Scruff83]

What time tonight will tomorrows schedule come out.

It's usually up by now. Hewitt/Djokovic is tomorrow night tho, they were advertising it on 7 earlier.

Completley agree with the Davydenko comments. Bullies lower ranked players and wins the pissy tournaments to build up ranking points, but is always shown up against the better players in grand slams. Happy to see him go!

 

[warney7]

I'd just like to make my thoughts known about Tsonga.
I see this guy as being the Baghdatis/Gonzalez of this years open.

Having knocked out Murray he now plays Sam Warburg, whoever he is.

After he wins that match he will take on either Garcia-Lopez or Falla, both unseeded and very unknown.

Then after he wins those matches the worst he can do for a 4th round match-up is Gasquet.

Following that the worst he can face is Davydenko in the QF's, and he'll probably bet against himself if he gets that far anyway.

So despite it being a fair way away, I really think he's a danger man!

Unless today was a fluke and he'll just turn to crap.

But the draw is really open for him!

Another day, another great win for Tsonga.

Next up, Mikhail Youzhny!

And that will be tough.

Youzhny is in fantastic form.

Thanks, I was hoping Hewitt would be last match of the day session. I have a mate that has 2 tickets and has to leave at 4.00pm. He was going to scan out and give them to me.

If it's a decent game, I may still go.
