I really doubt it was a fix, but if someone could please tell me the total matched for ML on Betfair we'll know whether to have suspicions or not.Comment -
it wasnt fixed shut up, he kept choking on his double faults early on in the match, was having trouble with the AD sideComment -
It wasn't fixed. That's just Sam Querrey. He's the master of stealing your cash. That's why I don't bet on him.Comment -
Iloveloathe when the fix word is thrown around.Comment -
That was far from fixed.
Gulbis is just that type of a player - UNSTABLE in every possible way.Comment -
Seriously guys, theres Peole reading BRAIL that could figure out Querry hasnt been worth a bag of hammers so far this year..... do the research. this guy has already chocked huge in 3rd sets so far this year.Comment -
The above comments about choking. I dont buy it! It was fixed...Comment -
Gulbis seems to be playing with a new attitude this year. Normally he would have folded like a lawn chair in that third set. From an interview he just gave. http://articles.sun-sentinel.com/201...-bresnik-potro
"However, a very thin 6-foot-3 Gulbis, who hired renowned coach Gunther Bresnik last June, said he has finally found the motivation to get in shape and fulfill his potential.
"I was really getting pissed to see who's in the top 100,'' Gulbis said after squeaking out a three-set victory over Denys Molchanov. "There are some guys who I don't know who they are. Some guys, I'm sorry, with respect — they can't play tennis.
"I don't know how they got into the top 100. It's tough, but I think I'm much better than them and I just want to prove to myself by the rankings, also. It's a motivation.''
"This is the first year I really want to do this,'' Gulbis said. "I'm starting to enjoy tennis much more. Before I didn't like it, honestly. I had a couple of good wins and enjoyed it. Then I went on the wrong path and was doing wrong stuff for my game.
"Now, I want to play maybe five more years and do the best I can.''
Former top-10 plater Jimmy Arias, now working for TennisChannel, needs to see proof.
"He's got the game, he's got power, he's got all the shots,'' Arias said. "Obviously, it's mental. He just doesn't seem to have the motivation. I remember when he came on the tour, I thought this guy is a top-10 player. He hasn't even been close, but there could be great things for his future.''
Gulbis is coming off close losses to Berdych and No. 7 Juan Martin del Potro in Marseilles and Rotterdam.
"My goal is to really win something big,'' Gulbis said. "If not this year, next, if I'm doing things the right way like I have the last half a year … it's going to pay off eventually. It's going to come.''
I watched the match and Querrey just had alot of trouble serving from one end of the court. Here is the scoring breakdown of the third set and the match stats. Querrey didnt just couldnt convert his break points, Gulbis converted his few chances for breaks.
Querreys quote after the match
"I played a sloppy game at 4-1, and then at 5-4 I played some tentative shots and the double-fault killed me and then it's a 50-50 match after that." Querrey said. "It was just one of those days, one of those matches."

Yeah Greg, I'm really excited to see how it pans out for Gulbis this year. I saw in another interview that he said he's given up booze, smokes and "other stuff" because he's finally going to take tennis seriously. We always knew he had the talent but he was too much of a posh party boy to care about winning. Will be interesting to see if he sticks with now.Comment -
He has the talent Shari, but I was watching that match and he was a few minutes away from totally imploding. Smashing racquets,cursing, but at least he has the passion. Should be interesting. You want to watch something really interesting, watch this short 60 minutes interview with the Bryan brothers. I just watched it again today
Weirdest thing I have seen in tennis. They are mirror twins, they said only about 1% of live births result in monozygotic twins. Only 25% of monozygotic twins are "mirror" or opposite feature twins. This interview is crazy.
Comment -
Why is anyone really giving credit to Gulbis here? Querrey had this match in the bag multiple times and choked it up, mostly all to his own doing by double faulting and playing like an absolute bitch.Comment -
So who is Gulbis current coach? He needs to work on his forehand.Comment -
Wow, thanks for this! Mind was kind of blown about a few things watching that. Debating buying their dad's book although he seems a bit of a nutter. Can't really imagine me being that much of a hard ass.
See my comment above. No one's giving credit to Gulbis. This is just par for the course for Querrey. We're just taking the chance to talk about something interesting because there's only so many times you can talk about how putting money on Querrey is a death wish.Comment -
Having two mirror twins , one being right handed and one being left handed, they were the perfect specimens for doubles. When they started playing singles early in their career, their parents wouldnt allow them to play each other in tournaments . If they were to play each other, they would alternate defaulting to each other. That story about their dad throwing the video game system down the canyon is crazy, i see why they live on florida now.
Shari, dont ever date a twin. I dont see how their girlfriends can handle this setup.
