oh yes, in 06. didnt he have mp's in that match?

last year was a bit of a nightmare too


He was definately 5-2 up in the final set... can't remember whether he did have any match points though.

Think he was a break up last year as well.

Be surprised if he could get past Devvarman as he's a pretty good player and much better on the clay, but since reaching the Chennai final, he's not actually won back-to-back matches other than in the Davis Cup.

Hope that streak can carry on and Boggo can reach the final round here, but not overly confident at all that he will do... but hopefully he can prove us wrong and still be involved on Friday.

True... but we know that the BBC only do stories on Boggo when he loses so it comes as no surprise.

Of course, it was a story written today, so they can be forgiven for only covering today's results, but where was the story about Boggo yesterday. As FD says, there's bound to be a "Boggo fails to get past qr2 for the 5th year in a row" story if he loses tomorrow ...

The Sporting Life are a bit kinder, with their story "Smart Alex Storms Through" at http://www.sportinglife.com/tennis/news/story_get.cgi?STORY_NAME=tennis/09/05/19/manual_191432.html

I bet he hasn't been called "The Davis Cup star" before ... wink

Cippola won 6-4, 6-4 so boggo should be up in the next 10 mins or so.

Boggo held in the opening game, so already an improvement on his first round match.
