The draw is out. Jurgen will play Eric Prodon of France. From what I can find he is a clay court specialist. He did play Miami and that is the only hard court tournament he has played.
You all may know that hurricane Irene is heading for New York and may cause a lot of delays for the USOpeen. It seems they always have rain, but this one is very serious. I am nervous for eveyone in New York City. I hope it will lose some of its strength before it reachs New York.
Indeed! And his next round as well. He actually has a very good draw, because Youzhny and Gulbis aren't too good in form either. Chance to get 180 points here!
But let's take it 1 match at a time...
I like the 6-2 acores, but what happened in the second set. I thought Jurgen was up a break. I wish they would show him on TV here. Maybe if he works his way far into the draw I will be able to watch a match. Go Jurgen.
Jurgen played mixed doubles today with Benesova. They lost to the second seeded team of Srebotni,/Nestor 1-6, 6-3, tiebreak 7-10
Tomorrow Jurgen plays Igor Kunitsyn on court 6 which means no TV for us. Darn.
I felt certain he was going to pull it out. The score in the final set tiebreak was 5-7. It was so close. Now we need to cross our fingers for the mens doubles tomorrow.
I read that Jurgen's loss to Igor will drop Jurgen out of the top 20 down to 23. He lost 135 points.
I hope it is not that huge a drop. Jurgen really needed to win that match and should have IMO.
YES! Jurgen and Petzschner won again. Today they beat the team of Stakhovsky/Youzhny 7-6 (3), 6-3.
Their next opponents are yet to be determined.
In mixed doubles, Petzschner lost today in a close match. He really is a good doubles player.
I was able to watch both matches on the computer.
Can anyone find pictures from the doubles matches? I never can
WOW! Jurgen and Petzschner are now in the Semi-finals. Today they defeated Marrero/Seppi 6-1, 6-2.
There next opponents have yet to be determined.
