Golubev serving at 4-5 first set. He hasn't lost a point on first serve but has only got 9 in so far.

Come on Bloomers!

Think it would be a waste of money biggrin

I can't see him winning the event, and reaching the 3rd round would be a big achievement for him on a fast hard court, and he'll need a WC to even get into the qualifying draw (and that's not guarenteed)

Anything other than Federer, Nadal, Djokovic, Murray (and maybe Roddick, Davydenko, and Nalbandian) to win the title is a crazy bet though.

Bloomers double faults the break away!!!!!!

Last 3 games I've seen him serve, he's gone from 40-0 to deuce, 40-0 to deuce, and now broken from 30-0...

Golubev to serve at 6-5 for the set... hope he chokes

Ugh, just one bp in the whole set, and it was on a virtual set point. He seemed to be fighting well there right to the end.

To do it once is careless... to do it twice is criminal...

It would be Kendrick in the final round, who beat Ebelthite 6-2, 6-3

Bloomers lost 7-5, 6-4...

Those double faults on break points were very costly in the end, as otherwise it was an even match.

Yes, but Richard hardly got a look-in on Golubev's serve, winning just 2/30 points when the Kazakh got his 1st serve in, 40% when he didn't.

Jamie and Somdev follow Bloomers on court. They are on the scoreboard
