wow what a field for a challenger, robin haase is 2nd last direct acceptance, hopefully he can show his claycourt form

Most of them are new. I am quite surprised as well, but oh well ;) All the big cities want one, I guess :p

guess marrakech can be very happy with the players they get

guess marrakech can be very happy with the players they get

Yes, great list. Scheveningen won't get such a field, despite being a bigger Challenger. Marrakech profits from very good scheduling ;)

come on BRACCIO!!!

Allez Guillermo !!!!!!!!!!

Please score

Please score

The tournament hasn't started, I'm sure somebody would update us once it does :)

didn't knew morrocco had so many challengers

This country gets more and more interesting for all kind of business (I will have some to do there soon , but do not tell my tax inspector yet !)), maybe sponsoring a tennis tournament is some way to make money roll and move. I won't bother as long as players and fans enjoy , and tennis clubs are more pleasant than cold penthouses where they play some challengers. It is time to have new players from this country, as the ones we know are over 28, and WC in those tournaments make them improve.

Coria OUT he will come back in Ostrava....

http://www.tennis.com/news/ticker.aspxCoria delays his comeback again, and now plans to play in the Ostrava challenger on April 30 instead of the Marrakech challenger on April 16. Coria was originally scheduled to come back at Houston in two weeks' time.

El Aynaoui will get a Wild Card for sure.
Go Younes !

El Aynaoui will get a Wild Card for sure.
Go Younes !

Is he going to play there? He should, seeing how weak the field is.

The field is not that weak cause Younes is not even in the alternates list.
And yes, he will play there according to him and to the tournament managers.

Good luck to Alves.

Is he going to play there? He should, seeing how weak the field is.

maybe you think this is an atp event then it would have been weak but for a challenger this is a very strong field

Go Gil!

maybe you think this is an atp event then it would have been weak but for a challenger this is a very strong field

Oh so it is a challenger tournament. Yes I thought it was a atp one. Confused it with the casablanca atp tournament. :)

Thank you :D http://andymurray.com/community/extensions/Vanillacons/smilies/love/flowers.gif

If he opts for it, it's his.

Casablanca is a 75k tournament. Marrakech is a 100k tournament. I think you can only ask for a SE if you want to play an equal or lower tournament that you have reached semi finals.

Casablanca is a 75k tournament. Marrakech is a 100k tournament. I think you can only ask for a SE if you want to play an equal or lower tournament that you have reached semi finals.

Ah, yes, you are probably right. I thought Casablanca > Marrakech and didn't look.

Main Draw: http://www.atptennis.com/en/common/TrackIt.asp?file=http://www.atptennis.com/1/posting/2007/3585/mds.pdf

no :p you can ask for a TMS SE if you lose in a ISG SF :p Cilic is in the draw.

Konstatinos Economidis (GRE) vs qualifier
(2) Kristian Pless (DEN) vs Robin Haase (NED)

this is much tougher for marin than casablanca was. i hope he can keep the streak going

Marin is allowed to lose :aplot: I dont think his fitness can work for so long in spite of spirit and confidence :p

just to test, Marin :cool:

Not a bad first round draw for Robin although Pless won in St. Brieuw he isn't really a claycourt player, guess Robin can handle him on clay as he did on hardcourt. But it is his first claycourt game this season......

Gil has the game to beat Zverev on clay. Let's see if he can get some points here before going to Casablanca and Estoril...

i think that konstantinos has easy draw.!!!!!!!!!!!!!go kostas!!!!!!!!!!!

How on Earth Gulbis managed to lose a set to Ziadi :o

I hate Mr. Rain.... :sobbing:

I cant follow Marin :tears:

Gulbis score please

is it still raining?

Ernests 3-6 5-*2

at my webpage now, not sure whether it is fresh :unsure:

It's an old score and yes, it is still raining.

is it still raining?

i think so ,but now they update the berlocq score to 4 all in the first set !

then whats the new?

Personally I think the Berlocq score was just updated, not played. They all started matches at 11 and in every match there are higher scores than in Berlocq-Luczak, they both like to keep ball in play and probably there were deuces as well.

Go, Charly!

is it still raining?
