Just copied some info from his ATP site profile. ;) If anyone wants the first post to look different just let me know and I'll change it to however you want. :)

Great stuff, Marsel! :yeah:

He will play Dieter Kindlmann for a spot in the MD.

I think Marsel would have to be the favourite for this one, but it still could be tough. Please qualify, Marsel!

:eek: I was so annoyed when I saw him lose to Kindlmann earlier, because he had 2 oppurtunities to serve out the match and just couldn't get it done, but now that I see he made the MD anyway, I guess it is okay. ;)

The funny thing is that he only made it in because of another of my faves having to withdraw, so I guess it's good that if Gilles can't play, at least Marsel can. ;)

:woohoo: I really thought it would go to a 4th set, but he fought back so well in the 3rd!

Can't wait for the pics. :bounce:

Wow... not being able to close out matches seems to be becoming a slight problem for Marsel. :unsure:
