R1 Bye
R2 Bolelli 6-3 6-3
R3 Ancic 7-6 6-4

Great victory today against a grass specialist
it's been a while he won two matches in a row in two sets.

Next: winner of Nalbandian vs Mahut

I like Gasquet too, though mainly because of the 2004 mixed doubles French Open final. I love watching that match. Tati was so cute back then too

Yep that match was great, i still have it on my harddisk.
she was not only cute but also fit then lol
her only season without injury's

I hope he will find his from late 2007 back with his new coach

Its good to see Richard back on the tour. I dont know too much about his injuries but I know he's been out for a little while and I hope to see alot of him at Wimbledon this year. He done brilliantly last year and his one handed backhand is a shot to behold. I watched his match in the quarter finals at Wimbledon last year, the 5 setter against Roddick and he certainly is an amazing talent. I just hope he can get a few injury free years under his belt and then I have no doubt about him being there or there abouts at the top of the mens game

Scott

He have a knee injury but i don't take the last time he said seriously.
It's more a mental problem, he doesn't enjoy it to be on the court , he said that a week before Roland Garros. And lately his fighting spirit is completely gone.

Last season he already had problems with that (that victory vs Roddick was the only time he came back from 1 or 2 sets behind) . That's pretty bad.

The match vs Roddick his probably his best ever together with his victory vs Federer in Monte Carlo few years ago. I still have the last two sets on my HD and it's such a big difference with his level now. His backhand is indeed a fantastic weapon, personally i think he have the best backhand on tour.

He have a lot of points to defend on Wimbledon i hope he can go far , normally he meet 1-8 seeds in round 4 , so if he can avoid names like Federer,Nadal,Djokovic there's maybe a chance for a quarter final.

But him i never look farther then the first match, just like Daniela he can lose from anyone in a bad day.
