Well I dont think he has one, and even if he does it is probably lost somewhere. Reached the final last week in the Sunrise challenger beating some good opponents on the way before losing to Monfils.

Today he just beat Dorstch to qualify for his 2nd master series in a row and hopefully his improving form can continue within the tournament with a good draw.

I have to thank Princess Adam for taking these Seppi pics at Wimbledon.

Andy won 4-6 6-2 6-1 and will now play Munoz-de la Nava in the next round, not sure where he will play next week, but I think he will get into one of the events directly.
 
#108 ·
Andy lost to Munoz-de la Nava in 3 sets, good tank it was. He wasn't sure which event he might have to had play qualies in, but he will be playing Båstad.
 
#110 ·
Now he is in Gstaad, he was in Båstad, but you know Andy is a mountain boy and he is playing in Gstaad now.
 
#111 ·
OK few other Italins are in Switzerland too so he will have company. maybe thats why he chose it. Either way I hope he plays a couple good matches. He will probably get the top seed in round 1 though.

Andy got Salva-Vidal, one of Nadal's friends and a leftie, hopefully he can get the job done here.

Seppi wins 6-4 6-0, always good to see a bagel.

Now he plays "El Fashionista" Koubek in the next round, whoever wins, well I can't lose.
 
#120 ·
We'll see what happens, just hope if it gets close, that he wins it, because he has lost most of the 50-50 matches this season.

Great win there for Andy in a tough match, which was fun to watch, but a bit nervewracking as well.

After the 1st set where Seppi was giving away more presents than Santa on LSD at Xmas, this was quite a good match.

Koubek was solid at the start, then Seppi cut down on the errors and played some good aggressive tennis and hitting some excellent backhand volleys.

Of course Seppi served it for at 5-4 and played an awful game, but he held out in the end. He was struggling there in the TB, but he got the W.

It was good to see that Seppi finally win a close match and make a QF, these two played another close one in Gstaad previously.

Bad luck Stef as I like him as well.

Nice for Seppi to win such a tough match like this. He nromally bottles it at the end, but at least he won this. Also some good points for the rankings which are very much needed.
 
#124 ·
Seppi is first one on today, auf gehts Andy.
 
#125 ·
Great performance from the Seppi winning 10 games in a row over Vassallo Arguello 6-4 6-0.

He was big tight and wasn't moving that well, but once he got the break back, he stayed positive and was able to control the rallies and cut out the errors and first semi final since Nottingham last year.
 
#126 ·
looks like he needs the slow start to win matches nowadays
 
#127 ·
He has done it.

Andy makes his 1st final on the ATP level defeating Andreev 6-4 4-6 7-6 (5).

Good tactics from Andy and when he was down in the service games, he didn't panic and played some intelligent tennis, good use of the dropshot and played a solid match.

He turned around a 0-4 in the H2H with Andreev as well and Igor was returning poorly and he might have underestimated the South Tyrolean sex machine after taking Gasquet.

Igor was hitting some good backhands down the line and Seppi fighting hard and varying the pace and that match with Koubek where he finally won 2 tiebreakers, helped him for sure.

Great week for Andy no matter what happens and he will be ranked around 89, which is a good thing.

He plays Mathieu, who is the huge favourite, but anything can happen.
