Rome FQR: Haase def. Malisse 6-3 3-6 6-4

Great fight from Robin here. But a typical result in X-Man's career. X-Man broke on his 5th break point at 2 all in the third set, only to get immediately re-broken. Then had *0-30 second serve at 4 all in the third and didn't break. Haase saved 10/12 BPs in the match.

Robin is beginning to put the mental side together with his game, good to see.

No more words for X, he's done.. :sad:

Clutch as usual from Robin

X isn't done, he's mentally horrible, and this has and will always be the case. He's been pretty OK this clay season, and that's a good sign for grass.

If the draw suits him, I see X reaching a 4th round at Wimbly, maybe even QF

No chance, he'll reach maximally the 3rd round, and that's pushing it..

Made the 4th round last year, so it's fairly possible.

No surprises here.

3 sets, 2 mugs, 1 match.

Muglisse is a disaster of a player, he should retire before he gets further chance to embarrass himself.

No, no, he should stay. Where else would we find entertainment in seeing mugs getting mentally beat?

we need points for the olympics Xavier :(

X had no chance - mentally weakest player in the Top 72 v mentally strongest player in the Top 72 :(

Robin :bounce: :worship: Taking out the trash and making it suffer :bowdown: Good luck in MD
