and that all important team score?

Fat DAve is looking good for the second set though!



It was never in doubt that he would win really... and as a Nalbandian fan, I feel a lot more confortable when he loses the first set

Vliegen beating Mathieu.... serves me right for trusting the frenchman for once...

Yup, never trust a Frenchman (Josh was the only one clever enough not to), the same goes for Monfils, just bagelled by Mr Hingis. furiousfurious

Have they suddenly speeded up all the clay courts? At this rate, grass will be slower than clay soon!

The difference in the team score after Vliegen's win was the equivalent of 1/3 of a R1 match win - they'd got 91 picks right between them, we'd got 68, which is 90.67 after adjusting our score by 24/18 to take into account the different team sizes. So close ...

Pretty sure I had Stepanek to win though... which is about all that is going for me... just as Moya retires, and there goes another R16 pick

The clay does seem pretty slow based on what I watched this morning... it's just Monfils cannot keep the ball in the stadium, let alone inside the lines of the court

Monfils is such a strange character, some days he's painting the lines and is good enough to beat anyone, others he's bad enough to lose to anyone. A bit like Gonzalez I suppose. Hopefully he suddenly remembers how big the court is as I have him reaching the quarters.

I had Monfils reaching the third round. If I'd known he was "injured" I'd have gone for Chuckles.
