booooooooo this is deb's job...Boooooooooo

Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I think ESPN will show:

1-5pm: Mauresmo vs. Ivanovic --> Hrbaty vs. Ferrer

7-9pm: Nadal vs. T. Johansson

Aw, thanks RDucky... I knew I wasn't gonna be home in time, though.

Yeah, HF, I'd say that's what ESPN will show, except they might show Kim/Elena tape-delayed at 10 instead of the guys - how great is that - not an American in SIGHT!!!!!!!!! :banana:

the text is up at the tourney site, though, if joeb wants to paste it in for those who have trouble with PDF.

Please paste, joeb. :)

and okay fine



GO NADAL

Haha, it was too good to be true.

Tomorrow ESPN is showing an "encore presentation" of Williams vs. Williams at 3 pm.

Of course, hrbatyfan! Shouldn't really be surprising. And they're also showing the women (Kim/Elena) at night at 10 instead of Rafa/ToJo

Of course, hrbatyfan! Shouldn't really be surprising. And they're also showing the women (Kim/Elena) at night at 10 instead of Rafa/ToJo

are you kidding???

:mad:

I so feel like denegrating ESPN and the women's game right now, but it doesn't even matter. One of these days maybe I can infiltrate ESPN's programming department.

i'm sorry joeb but what a piss poor attempt for an OOP thread!

Of course, hrbatyfan! Shouldn't really be surprising. And they're also showing the women (Kim/Elena) at night at 10 instead of Rafa/ToJo


where did you see that :confused: on espn.com it still says they're showing the mens qf's...

i'm sorry joeb but what a piss poor attempt for an OOP thread!
yeah no shit.
booooooooo this is deb's job...Boooooooooo

i get both dominator and nadal on the box :sport:

where the f**k is deb - take control woman!!!

Haha, it was too good to be true.

Tomorrow ESPN is showing an "encore presentation" of Williams vs. Williams at 3 pm.

OMG :mad: :mad: :mad:

Haha, it was too good to be true.

NO WAY...im stuck watching it now..my remote dont work and i dont wanna get up to turn it off.

Vamos Nadal!!!!

good luck Tojo :)

Tim Henman VS Roger Federer
I will bet on Tim Henman this time. Roger Federer is absolutely OFF FORM now and has been feeing very unwell and sick this week having vomit many times and that can be show in his recent match with Ancic and Zabaleta. He play with tons of backhand error during match with Zabaleta. And he played with Ancic hours ago with lot of backhand and forehand unforced error which he normally could easily hit. He must be feeling physically weak and mentally tired now having to deal with his medical condition now. This time, he would be against verteran and experience Tim Henman. With Henman aggressive play, Federer would find it to keep up with the tempo and rythm of the match for sure base on his current medical condition and lousy play. Henman has been great in this tournament and not losing a set yet! Morever, Henman leads 6-3 in H2H with Federer winning the last 2 but that isn't important at all as Henman will sure want to revenge and win in this prestigous tournament. I will put 20 stakes in this match! Odds is juicy now. Grab it while its still there. Donate to me if you like my edge picks. Thanks!

Tim Henman to win at odds of 8 @ betfair

Goooooooooo THOMAS and JONAS/MAX!!

:clap2: Good luck players! :clap2:

ESPN/2 really want me to get some work done tomorrow. :lol:

rant mode on :shout:

I taped Venus/Serena because the schedule said ESPN2 was showing it in the wee hours. We don't need an encore of the tape delay. :fiery:

There's so much great tennis still going on. Turn the cameras on and just roll on court! How about the great matches we haven't seen this tournament? PLAY THOSE!! :mad:

When is ESPN going to lift the ban on watching Rafa?!?!! They parse shots of him out like they're afraid the American public will actually get to know and like this great player!

GGRRRRRR...

rant mode off :angel:

NOONE BELIEVES THAT JOHANSSON COULD CAUSE AN UPSET HERE?

good luck to dom & andre

NOONE BELIEVES THAT JOHANSSON COULD CAUSE AN UPSET HERE?

It's possible. But, my non-betting money is on Rafa. :)

Good luck to Dominik and Tojo:bounce:!!!!!!!!

Vamos Rafa!!! :bigclap: ... Go Dominator! :yeah:

:bounce: Vamos Rafael!!! :bounce:

um TSN is showing the ESPN 10:00 session at midnight. And if i get girls......... roar.

Anyone knows when and where the 4th doubles quarter is played?
Perhaps it's a walk-over???

:bounce: Vamos Rafael!!! :bounce:

um TSN is showing the ESPN 10:00 session at midnight. And if i get girls......... roar.


you do get girls. see my LJ for the complete rant... :mad:

where the f**k is deb - take control woman!!!

:sad: you know that I have class. and I'm 3 hours earlier than Miami.... I can't help it :tears: But I feel so loved awwwwwwwww... it pains me to let you down, BG :awww:

the ESPN schedule is official on their site now. Amelie/Ivanovic at 1pm, Elena/Kimmy at night.

GOOOOO RAFA AND TIM!!!!!

Hrbaty / Ferrer are on ESPN2 at 3pm today...... Where's Rafa :sad:

Hrbaty / Ferrer are on ESPN2 at 3pm today...... Where's Rafa :sad:

Maybe, maybe not. The ticker last night said they would show an encore of the Williamses's match. Maybe they'll show it, but I wouldn't get my hopes up too high. I think we won't get to see the Rafa/ToJo match :(

C'mon Rafa what a chance for you to reach the final. Tojo then either Hrbaty/Ferrer. Can't ask for a better draw in a Masters Series

Hrbaty must fancy his chances to get to the final here, good records against both Johansson and Nadal and he can't lose to the Frog... can he? It would be a joke if the Frog managed to make the semis of an event like this.

Is Ferrer the frog? Why :confused:

He looks like one. He is the Frog to Soderling's Toad.

He looks like one. He is the Frog to Soderling's Toad.
:haha: a little bit

Hrbaty has beaten Ferrer twice on hardcourts, without losing a set, but with Hrbaty one can never tell.

Let's go Amelie! Dust off this teenager so I can see Hrbaty kick the crap outta Ferrer LIVE!

Mauresmo 6-1 *3-0, don't slow down.

wow what a tremendously exciting QF the WTA is giving us. Get Ferrer vs Hrbaty on!

Ferrer/Hrbaty won't start before 3pm and ESPN is going to show the Venus/Serena replay at 3pm :mad:

When I check Nasdaq's order of play it says Hrbaty/Ferrer is on immediately after the girls.

When I check Nasdaq's order of play it says Hrbaty/Ferrer is on immediately after the girls.

I hope so, but the PDF on the first page of this says not before 3pm :confused:

I guess Mauresmo wanted this match to be closer. She should have closed this out awhile ago.

hrbaty/ferrer is on at 3....fuckin espn is showing a replay of the williams match of yesterday, i just don't get it....i hate tennis coverage in north america, the rest of you around the world got it good

Was hilarious. Every game of Mauresmo I watched she lost. When I left the TV and did random stuff she won every game.

The Williams' match is about 1:40 long, so there is still some extra time as long as they go until 5PM as they say they will. What they will do with this extra time is anyone's guess.

good pick of mac hrbatyfan...there will never be another johnny mac

good pick of mac hrbatyfan...there will never be another johnny mac

Thanks. One of a kind for sure.

uh, first of all this match isn't played until tomorrow, so post in tomorrow's thread or at the gamblers lounge. and second, we all know Roger raises his game against worthy opponents (aka top10 players) so I wouldn't look into his last couple of matches too much. Federer in two, easily.

:bs: in advance if dent is poppin winners doesn't show hrbaty/ferrer live when they arrive on court..

The Williams' match is about 1:40 long, so there is still some extra time as long as they go until 5PM as they say they will. What they will do with this extra time is anyone's guess.
ESPN should just show the 2nd set. That way the blacks will be happy and yet everyone still gets to see how Serena coped down a set.

they shouldn't show anything and ban Serena from tennis! she lost me a shitload of money last night :sad:

wow what a tremendously exciting QF the WTA is giving us. Get Ferrer vs Hrbaty on!

:haha: i wish thomas v nadal was on at this earthly hour instead of like 4am :mad:!!!

natas, i don't think you should write that:

'That way the blacks will be happy'

it is not only blacks that like the williams, white people as well as other races like them too though i for 1 don't want to watch that match or any women's match for that matter...another good pic of mac with the shorts up lol

That wasn't meant to be offensive. Everyone knows ESPN is showing this because black people like basketball, which is shown two or three times a week on the station.

They should still only show the second set. The first was a wash at 6-1.

Hello all !!! :)

MTF white people like baketball more than black people.Do you know that ??

You are a real MTF ..You are proving it again & again!

Are you kidding? Do you even watch basketball? 9 times out of 10 there's 1 or 2 white guys on the court, most of which are foreign.

But you do agree that ESPN should show only the 2nd set right? Do you care about the men's match? Or just looking for an excuse to call someone racist?

seriously, ESPN should just show all the matches. I hear they have enough channels and it's not like there's much else going, NBA regular season => boring

Well, like I said, when this sad excuse for a sport 'women's college basketball' gets through then there will be more time to expand the current tennis timeslots and show more coverage. Like hrbatyfan said, how they use the extra coverage is anyone's best guess.

Man, where did you hear those bad news about Federer's health? I couldn't read it in any place......tell us, please! :eek: :eek: :eek:

MTF ..Do you know about viewership ??

Idiot you make me laugh !

So if a team has 2-3 white guys that means whites don't like basketball ??

Most viewership of basketball games is from whites...whites buy the most tickets & they attend most basketball games.

ESPN shows basketball games because AMERICA wants it.

You don't know jack $hit about America.GTFO


I hope they don't show any tennis ....you don't deserve it.MTF.. :o

I don't know you personally and I won't label you a racist. Your previous statements in this regard are offensive to me and maybe many others. I enjoy what Venus and Serena bring to tennis. I do not want to see the match replayed in this time slot, however. I believe those ladies have many more fans than those of one racial component. I and many other Americans have enjoyed playing and watching basketball all of our lives. Just last night I received an email from someone who went to see pro basketball this weekend. She was thrilled and she is not black to my knowledge. I never asked her racial background because it's not important to me as she is a beautiful person inside and out.

Although you are entitled to your opinion as a living human being, please don't type those types of statements here. Thanks. :)

He doesn't know jack $hit about AMERICA

Do you have the statistics to back this up? Didn't think so. Viewership fuels athlete's to market their own products. Most of these athletes are African American. Don't you know anything about the stock market?

ESPN shows basketball games because AMERICA wants it.
So, you're telling me ESPN shows hockey because America wants it? Do you really have a business sense of how Gross National Product affects marketing?

I hope they don't show any tennis ....you don't deserve it.MTF..
So you hope the very argument you're defending isn't shown? Pat yourself on the back for that one, champ!

I don't need to reply to you anymore. You do a great job of turning your own posts inside out.

By the way. I saw your first post. You don't need to post it a second time. Though I'm sure you knew that. You know everything else about how American forums work.

hey guys, the tennis has actually started. Ferrer starting well 1-0 30-0*

Go Ferrer!

Vamos Ferrer !!! :)

i'm on ferrer +195 as well as ferrer +3 games

Come on Dom...

15-40, 2 bp for Ferrer. looks like my money is going down the drain again :sad:

Ferrer *2-0

2-0 ferrer

2-0 Ferrer

hold now you genius

lol dom :smash:

Ferrer is one hell of a player on hardcourt if he's on. I like that.

what a great start, ferrer you little beauty, he's outrallying Dominik regularly

there will be quite a few breaks in this match as the courts are slow and neither player has a huge serve...i took ferrer simply b/c he must be playing fairly solid with his recent wins, he is younger, hrbaty can be hit and miss, and the odds ofcourse

NAT,

MTF ...Find the stats yourself & slap yourself with the results.

How many basketball games you have attended.

Don't reply to me ..MTF you don't deserve any explanation..GTFO

Although you are entitled to your opinion as a living human being
Everything I have stated in this thread is a through and through fact.

Guess what? They are showing the first set. Way to go! I'm sure nobody has TiVo or a tape recorder to record last night's match, or ESPN (the very facking network that shows the same sports show with the same results every facking hour).

hi term

Bilbo, are you forgetting something?

cya Hrbaty, match over ;)

whats wrong with hrbaty?

come on dom wake the hell up

0 winners and 10 unforced by hrbaty, it's like he's playing safin at this year's aussie open all over again lol

Ferrer 3 love. Baty down a break.

there will be quite a few breaks in this match as the courts are slow and neither player has a huge serve...i took ferrer simply b/c he must be playing fairly solid with his recent wins, he is younger, hrbaty can be hit and miss, and the odds ofcourse

i'm big on ferrer

nice play from the Dominator so far: 20% first serve and 10 unforced errors in 16 points

anyone think hrbaty is looking very nervous?

It's called Ferrer has started on fire, and Dominik has started like crap. Relax.

0/11 for hrbaty. holy shit. this is the worst i've ever seen. :eek:

Hrbaty 40-15. Here we go!

go ferrer

Vamoooooooos David !!! :)

nice easy hold, hopefully he'll find some comfort out there and get into a rhythem

Hrbaty's having an absolute nightmare

bilbo, i should've loaded on ferrer +3 games like you did but i just put down a couple hundy...i got suckered into taking ivanovic +4.5 games to start the day as i was bored..should've put it all on ferrer...nadal looks pretty solid tonight, he never gets tired and tojo won't be able to be hitting balls at his head level all day

KOM IGEN JONAS and MAX!!!

NAT,

i see NAT is really popular around here ...

Ferrer serving at 87% efficiency. Surely this cannot keep up.

Evening fellas

Evening fellas


whats up mate :) ;)

Evening fellas
you got coverage of nadal later? :wavey:

Hrbaty must have gotten the telegram that I bet fake money on him :sad:

i have ferrer, nadal and of course clijsters. single bet each.

Hrbaty up 40-0. This is the Dom we gauge our eyes out for.

Deivid Spain drawing with Serbia, not too long left. You could really do with a win

i see NAT is really popular around here ...

Swisha,

LOL ! he is from Abu Dhabi ...what else you would expect ??

Evening fellas

:wavey:


:haha: ESPN is still advertising mens' quarter final action for tonight at 10PM. They should change their call letters to EVIL for taunting us poor fans. :lol:

Evening fellas

Hola.

i have ferrer, nadal and of course clijsters. single bet each.

i've got mauresmo, ferrer, nadal and clijsters on a parlay that pays 7.5, would be rather nice if it came off :D

Swisha,

LOL ! he is from Abu Dhabi ...what else you would expect ??
Do you mind? We're trying to commentate on a tennis match here?

It's called Ferrer has started on fire, and Dominik has started like crap. Relax.
We can't relax. It's just not the MTF way.

:eek: do u get thomas v nadal :eek:

What a pissmatch by England. Wankers. :(

Do you mind? We're trying to commentate on a tennis match here?
:haha:

15-0 Daveed.

Do you mind? We're trying to commentate on a tennis match here?


I don't mind @ all ....... :rolls:

Swisha,

just ignore him he is a clown ... ;)

wow great defence from ferrer, 40-0

What a pissmatch by England. Wankers. :(


oh yeah awful !!!

Was there a tight call that went to Ferrer? It showed 30-15, then 40-0.

Was there a tight call that went to Ferrer? It showed 30-15, then 40-0.
Hmmm.

you got coverage of nadal later? :wavey:

I don´t think so, but maybe they will surprise me. About Spain vs S&M looks like a 0-0 if there isn´t an error.

lol chloe, it's the amateur gamblers way not to relax and i doubt many here do this for a living....i know of only 1 person, that in cali that has wagered for 5 years straight (only on football, nothing else) and has earned nuff cash all those 5 years that would be very surprising to some...but it's almost impossible, about .5 percent or less of people can do it for a living, it takes capital to start with, and far too much discipline that none of us have..but betting sure is fun

Squish the frog Hrbaty.

Well if it was a bad call, Hrbaty is ticked off. 40-0 to 40-30!

ferrer 40-0 to deuce damn

40-0 --> Deuce. Come on.

:wavey:


:haha: ESPN is still advertising mens' quarter final action for tonight at 10PM. They should change their call letters to EVIL for taunting us poor fans. :lol:

i thought ESPN was only going to show kims match tonight :scratch: it'd be great if we got a mens QF tho

Wow, Hrbaty, nice start :o

ESPN.com says the women's match....

We can't relax. It's just not the MTF way.

:lol: That is so true! I just laugh when I read some of these comments - people cursing their favorites and throwing them love in the same statements, folks making assumptions about the quality of play from watching the score board. It's hilarious. The funniest is when a player is firmly in control of a match and their fans are still fretting.

Now, you know with Marat I deserve to be in the nut house for every match! :crazy: :haha:

good hold david, 5-2*

hold now jonas/max!!

Tough hold for Ferrer, but a step in the right direction for Dominik. Hold now.

lol chloe, it's the amateur gamblers way not to relax and i doubt many here do this for a living....i know of only 1 person, that in cali that has wagered for 5 years straight (only on football, nothing else) and has earned nuff cash all those 5 years that would be very surprising to some...but it's almost impossible, about .5 percent or less of people can do it for a living, it takes capital to start with, and far too much discipline that none of us have..but betting sure is fun

I tried betting for fun for a little while. It was, but then I made a couple of bad bets and it was all over. I promised myself that I wouldn't put in more than I started out with, and I stuck with that ;)

I think there are a couple people around here who do it for a living, but I may be mistaken.

Hello tazs, maybe not none of us ;)

Hrbaty is slowly but surely cracking into the Ferrer serve.

As long as Ferrer is serving over 80% I'm not going to pull my hair out over Dominik not breaking. The troubling thing tho, are his unforced errors.

:eek: do u get thomas v nadal :eek:

N:fiery:! We get NO men's tennis today unless you count the snippet of Dent/Mayer they showed after Amelie's match. I'm distraught! :bigcry:

As long as Ferrer is serving over 80% I'm not going to pull my hair out over Dominik not breaking. The troubling thing tho, are his unforced errors.
Indeed. But it seems as though his aggressiveness is paying of on the receiving points.

Dominik is the complete opposite to yesterday. Against Monfils he was making virtually no UE's and working Monfils all over the court. Today he is spraying the ball wide or long an awful lot

:lol: That is so true! I just laugh when I read some of these comments - people cursing their favorites and throwing them love in the same statements, folks making assumptions about the quality of play from watching the score board.

I like reading score threads for those reasons too :yeah:

That said, I occasionally act ridiculous too :angel: I try to not to infer too much from the scoreboard, though ;)

OMG :eek:

what happenned to dominik???

hrbaty...what is goin ogn :confused:

Reminds of me when Dominik lost to Acasuso in Auckland because he was too tight for some odd reason.

BREAKING NEWS! Venus held at 5-0!!! :yawn:

As long as Ferrer is serving over 80% I'm not going to pull my hair out over Dominik not breaking. The troubling thing tho, are his unforced errors.

Yeah, thing is its not like he's getting too many cheap points off the serve anyway. Hrbaty is just making far too many errors when they get in rallies.

Not that I'm complaining :D

3 set points Ferrer

shit nooo jonas.max NOOO

3 SP Ferrer. Shit.

First set Ferrer 6-2 Vamos

phew duece...now get his game!!

Pathetic start, but whatever. If he wakes up I'll be happy, if not then oh well.

i thought ESPN was only going to show kims match tonight :scratch: it'd be great if we got a mens QF tho

Don't count on it, Sharon. :) I think they were going to show it originally, but, then decided to do a big change in scheduling for today.

nice first set dom

propz Ferrer

Hrbaty :o:o:o:o

Time to turn things up, Dominator.

break them now :D

83% Ferrer. Anybody have his normal MPH? Or is he just slowing down to get the ball in play?

You knocking Acasuso, thems are fighting words. :)

I wish he'd play like this against Gaudio.

Time to get it together.

looks like doms gonna be a big parlay killer today, so i'll have to make it up on the tail end with some more money on rafa and hope this type of result doesnt happen again

Good advice. :yeah:

Maybe. :)

I don't know he was tight about. New Zealand is his home away from home, I guess he felt like the favorite (which he was) and was thinking about the title he had to defend.

Nadal beat the hottest player on the tour besides Federer yesterday. It should be $$ in the bag.

Its about the same as usual. It's not really the serve thats doing the damage, its the huge amount of errors from Dominik.

wow, deivid and chloe, i'm impressed...good job

30-15 Ferrer. Break him Dom.

Maybe. :)

Acasuso is even cooler than Oscar Hernandez.

I wonder if Hrbaty will settle down or still hit the same shots out without taking anything off the shots.

Make a match out of this court time, Dominator! :clap2:

His only hope is that he starts to get in some really long points and he warms up his game, and wears down Ferrer at the same time.

Easy hold for Ferrer after more errors from Hrbaty, he just can't hit winners and is getting frustrated

Its about the same as usual. It's not really the serve thats doing the damage, its the huge amount of errors from Dominik.
Gracias, and I agree. Dom need to start going for more though now that he's behind.

3 UEs in the first game of the set. Nice start!

You watching it mate? I reckon he's extremely nervous, if he can shake it off he might have a chance. The long rallies are favouring Ferrer

They are even on Aces/DFs 0-0 Ferrer 3-3 Hrbaty

You watching it mate? I reckon he's extremely nervous, if he can shake it off he might have a chance. The long rallies are favouring Ferrer

Not watching it at all.

good start dom lol

You watching it mate?
Are you kidding? With Venus up 5-0 in the first set why would anybody want to watch live Men's QF action?

Hrbaty got lucky, smash was long but called in. 15-0, ue 15-15, ue 15-30

2 bp ferrer, double fault by dom

2 MP s Ferrer

ferrer breaks 6-2 *2-0 another double fault

It looks like Hrbaty could be heading for the exit.

15-40 man wake up :rolleyes:

You guys are right. They are about even on serve points. Ferrer gets more first ones in, and Dominik isn't pulling the trigger from the ground effectively.

2 MP s Ferrer

I agree....... :wavey:

Swisha,

Please put Hrbaty on your blacklist.

Thanks.

lol

Hrbaty changes his racquet I really don't think I've ever seen a top 50 player play this badly

GSM Ferrer

wow, deivid and chloe, i'm impressed...good job

Why, what did I do? ;)

0-2 Hrbaty. Tough crapola now.

What a pain in the ass. Nothing wrong with losing, but it's losing when you should be able to win.

Hrbaty is so bad...:sad: :mad:

worst perfomance i've ever seen

oh man, Hrbaty is throwing this one away, looks like an easy win for Ferrer. Ferrer in the semis, this is definately not the 5th GS.

truly awful from dom, 6-2 *3-0

Ferrer throws in an ace to cap off his 3 love lead.

I am not sure what is more brilliant Hrbaty's performance or the fact that people are losing money.

This tournie has lost it's credibility..Ferrer in semis with likes of Nadal, Federer, Agassi..?? NO WAY

this is just awful

How in the world is the Frog getting to the semis of a tournament like this??!! You know, he did beat Nadal in Stuttgart last year when the latter choked the match away... anyone care to lay a bet on Ferrer against Federer/Agassi in the final?

Swisha,

Please put Hrbaty on your blacklist.

Thanks.


this list is for big time chokers ...Hrbaty is just playing awful from the beginning ..to be honest i d rather like to lose a bet like this ...than with Hernych choking twice against PHM in IW ...

Pleaseeeeeeeee RAFA! redeem this PATHETICly worstly horriffically BAD ground game by HRBATY BODY!!!

between serena last night and hrbaty now, i'm pissing away my bankroll..looks like i may have to be desperate and load up alot on nadal to make up

This is probably Hrbaty's worst match of his life, at least in the last 8 years.

just don't retire now hrbaty, i'll be pissed

Hmm.. A lineman's error gives Hrbaty a 15-0 lead. Karma turning around for the Slovak?

Ok, but they all got a BREAK. Hrbaty on other side is playing like an amateur. :rolleyes:

one thing's for sure, I'm not betting against him anymore. 3 in a row man, unbelievable :(

Ferrer just needs to put the ball in play and Hrbaty will do the rest for him.

I'm not counting my chickens just yet. Ferrer's serve isn't exactly unbreakable and surely Hrbaty can't play this badly all match

Ok, but they all got a BREAK. Hrbaty on other side is playing like an amateur. :rolleyes:


LOL MK that is very true ... never saw him playing so bad

3-1 lets see what he can do

For those who are saying this is Hrbaty's worst match ever. How many would be saying that if they didn't have money on it.

Actually, this reminds of his Round of 16 match versus O. Rochus last year.

damn Hrbaty's being more solid......

Ferrer just needs to put the ball in play and Hrbaty will do the rest for him.


:haha: :haha:

0-15 GO DOMINIK!! This is where you grab the bull by the horns and ride these forehands like no tomorrow!!!!

For those who are saying this is Hrbaty's worst match ever. How many would be saying that if they didn't have money on it.

I only have virtual cash on it, but unless he turns it around, I am confident in saying it's his worst match in several, several years. :p

kom igen break em boys!

I've got coverage and I've got money on Ferrer. I can honestly say its been a truly awful performance by Hrbaty, I haven't seen enough of his matches to say if its his worst ever but he's been pretty terrible

Actually, this reminds of his Round of 16 match versus O. Rochus last year.

I am sorry when you lose 6-2 6-0 6-0 to Gambill that is a candidate for worst performance ever.

at least force a 3rd :confused:

Dominik had a golden chance to go up 0-30 in that game and missed an easy backhand. Ferrer runs away with the game and leads 6-2 4-1*

I've got coverage and I've got money on Ferrer. I can honestly say its been a truly awful performance by Hrbaty, I haven't seen enough of his matches to say if its his worst ever but he's been pretty terrible

I have seen worse and I have to leave work soon and I have this taped so I can laugh if it is this bad.

Goodness gracious DOM!! And adeegee proves your PATHETIC play visually!!!
