He either didn't feel like playing tonight or something is bothering him

He's had an elbow issue for a while, but the bigger issue should be that perhaps he's been WAY over hyped in general. If you look at this 2013, outside of the big run at Wimbledon and a good result in Rome - he's been a very average player overall. Struggled badly during clay season and really has not proven himself consistent on outdoor hard courts at all. If you look at his matches on outdoor hard courts in 2013, he rarely has not struggled against just about anyone he has played.

Best surfaces seem to be lightning quick grass and controlled indoor environments. He'll be on fade watch for me in NY.

would have been great to have analysis pre match

fixed it

davopnz · 08-13-13, 12:57 AM

he is over passionate which at times comes of that way

I think he might need 1-2 more years before he cools off and really starts playing tennis

Hardcoar · 08-13-13, 07:11 AM

Let's not forget Blake played the match of his career for whatever reason.

Hardcoar · 08-13-13, 07:13 AM

Gonna try me some Azarenka to outlast Po'Po @ 1.83.

Nieminen comments for today:
Better news from Cincinnati: I'm back playing normal again and my body feels fine. I had a couple of days off after the match in Montreal and my hamstring got a lot better during those days. On the top of that my physio is also here now to help me to stay fit so the situation is good now.My game has been a way different in the practises here than in practices in Montreal. I have played more points and started to get used to this tempo again. My practises has been as solid as before the break and I have been hitting the ball well every day, that was not always the case in Montreal.
I played doubles today with Simon against Melzer and Fish. We lost the match 6-4, 3-6, 14-12, but I REALLY enjoyed playing that match. It was entertaining tennis and I was very happy the way my body felt and the way I played. Tomorrow I try to keep hitting the ball well in singles against Roger-Vasselin. I lost against him last time in straight sets, hopefully it will be a totally different story this time. I'm even more looking forward to go to the court tomorrow after this good doubles match, I had so much fun on the court today.
I'm also very happy to be healthy for this tournament, it wasn't so sure after Montreal that I would be 100% here but luckily I recovered well and could get a couple of very good practice days under my belt.

Stop shoving WTA down our throats, Tennis Channel.

uhhhhhhhhh yeah Robredo just blew 5 set points @ 6-1 in the tie-break. What in the holy fk!? Bellucci

Lucci is incredibly desperate. His career is slipping away, and he has to pick up as many wins as he can. He should go the Tankydenko route and abuse PEDs to ensure he will always qualify for main draws of events.

horja1 · 08-13-13, 11:04 AM

this is what he needs to gain some confidence in his game

I won't argue with you there, but it's hard to beat a motivated opponent who is also using PEDs to prolong his career.

It's rather sad when you think about it, because Tankydenko should have made enough money during his prime (and from fixing) to be able to retire. I suppose desperate times call for desperate measures, though.

Be careful with Tankydenko. He might make another run this week thanks to his good friends known as PEDs.
