Re: The Rainer Schuettler Cheering Thread

Rainer d. Vacek (another Czech) 6-3 3-6 6-3. *phew*

In second set, he had a chance to break at 1-1 but didn't and ended up broken in his next service game (pretty much his pattern these days) and lost the 2nd set. At 2-1 third set, he had the chance to break again and thank god he made it.

Re: The Rainer Schuettler Cheering Thread

he reached the main draw, vamos! :banana:
this Fognini didn't sound too easy, I'm glad he did it!

overall really very very successful qualies for the German players: Schüttler, Petzschner, Meffert, Phau, Waske :eek:

Re: The Rainer Schuettler Cheering Thread

And I already had hope that he would win it after grabbing the 3rd set tiebreak :sad: From where did I take this confidence in him? :crazy: No surprise I was wrong at the end :sad: Maybe I counted on the old fitness factor a bit too much.


BTW, on TV they also mentioned that Rainer has quite bad herpes and had to take medicaments. I heard herpes infection can be also a sign of a weak immune system. Somebody knows if Alfonso recently was carrying herpes or kissed the wrong guy(s) :aplot: :p

I think confidence is more a factor than fitness. :awww:

Or may be Ray. :tape:

Re: The Rainer Schuettler Cheering Thread

haha, Kiefer must have had something much worse than herpes, judging how bad he played against Davydenko :eek: :lol:


BTW, who knows about a New York broker who is a good friend of Rainer? Yesterday during Kohlschreiber's match, they showed a dark-skinned guy (around 30 to 40 years) who was sitting in the first rows and the commentator said "Here on the left in the background, you see a good friend of Rainer Schüttler, a broker here in New York. He is also supporting some of the other German players and Rainer even stayed at his house about four or five years ago during the US Open."

Just cought this and would like to ask...

I don't even know Rainer made the main draw in Beijing :eek:

Losing to Cilic is not a real surprise for me and he even made 3 sets.

He has better luck in doubles with Kiefer today. Winning 6-4 6-1 vs a pair of Chinese players (whom you will have a hard time finding their rankings. :tape: )
