The Panda Bear's optimism is to be truly admired biggrin

Play has just been suspended by rain

Arks how do you rate Andujar's chances against Starace when they resume ?

Rained off, 2-5 down.

Hopefully they can regroup. It's not been a good start, they haven't even looked close to breaking.

I haven't seen either play, so don't know.

Starace hasn't had a good year apart from the Challenger title in Napoli, so Andujar must be having a chance. He'll be fired up for this - doesn't get such opportunities all the time plus it's his home tournament.

sorry panda bear, but go starace.  the oddsmakers had starace as a 2-1 favorite if that makes a difference.

Yeah, obviously Starace is the favourite for this one. Andujar doesn't even get much success in Challengers on a regular basis.

starace's match was pushed back an hour due to the one set exhibition: wilander vs. bruguera

I can't see further than a straight sets win for Starace, he's never gonna set the world alight but is a solid top 100 player and is very good on clay. Napoli is quite a strong challenger so that's a pretty good result for him.

I wonder if James Ward's wc to this tourney was originally meant to go to Morgan Phillips before Morgan's injury ?

This rain delay is great news for Murray and Booty, they were on the rack in that first set. Hopefully they can regroup and turn this set around.

I don't think so. JCF practically runs this tournament.

Even though Mors's academy is closer to the tournament, I don't think that they have much influence over it.

That said, if he improves the way he is doing, there is no reason as to why won't get one here in the future.

Or at least get out of the blocks faster in the second.
