However given the trajetory of Sodlaarling serve, i dont think gonzarlez forehand will be as effective



Sorry, not quite with you, my friend.

Gonzalez's booming forehand becomes generally a huge factor as rallies begin to unfold, particularly when he has got bit on top on his own serve, but also on his opponents service if they lose a bit of control of the rally.

Well OK, it comes occasionally ridiculously from nowhere.  But generally it is if you don't keep control and length against him.

So, it has much, much more to do with his opponent keeping a good length to him, as Andy failed to do on too many occasions, than anything to do with his opponent's serve.

Yeh its sodåling in finish and sodaarling in norge. very strange.

as for the semi final, scandinavians have a habit of getting under the skin of hispanics and furstrating them

who would you rather have in a pressure situation a scandi or a hot head hispanic?

I know what you mean generally.

But of course there are always many exceptions to such stereotypes.

And well as Soderling has performed in Paris and cool as he has appeared, I am sure that you are well aware that Soderling is definately one not very stereotypical Swede.

( aplogies re my spelling but I feel safer keeping to the spelling I have come to know  smile  )

There is no ÄE in the english alphabet, which is the standard language of tennis, so its translated to be more simple, thats all i can think of.
