Koning is serving huge at the moment - just need to hope it drops off at some point and gives Boggo a chance.

He needs to keep holding serve here as if he goes a break down, it could be all over.

he doesnt really look up for it today. i am starting to think he doesn't enjoy fast courts anymore at all.

I don't know why he's not up for it - this week is a good chance to rack up some ranking points, and even to make a point by stopping Josh from taking over the GB no. 2 slot.
