The World No. 2 Spaniard could play his first match against in-form Argentine Juan Ignacio Chela (who is off to a flying 20-6 start on the year. Beyond that, in the third round Nadal could face one of a quartet of threats – former World No. 1 Marat Safin, No. 16 seed Jarkko Nieminen, French wild card Paul-Henri Mathieu and Belgian Kristof Vliegen. Nadal begins his quest for a third consecutive Monte-Carlo title riding a 62-match win streak on clay. This is his first clay-court event of the year. So far in 2007 he has played exclusively on hard court, building a solid 17-5 record, which includes his seventh ATP Masters Series title at the Pacific Life Open in Indian Wells. Top seed Roger Federer, who lost to Nadal in four sets in last year’s final, will play his first match against a qualifier. He would expect to face either former Roland Garros champion Carlos Moya or 13th seed Mikhail Youzhny in the third round, with a possible fourth-round showdown with newly-crowned Sony Ericsson Open champion Novak Djokovic. No. 3 Nikolay Davydenko is seeded to meet No. 14 Marcos Baghdatis in the third round. No. 4 and Australian Open finalist Fernando Gonzalez is seeded to play former Roland Garros champion and two-time Monte-Carlo champion Juan Carlos Ferrero. Seventh seed and Monte Carlo resident Ivan Ljubicic faces a challenging opening match against the winner of Gael Monfils and Radek Stepanek, and could meet 11th seeded Frenchman Richard Gasquet in the third round. Those present at Saturday’s main draw ceremony in the VIP Village included players Marcos Baghdatis, Paul-Henri Mathieu and Novak Djokovic and Argentine legend and two-time Monte-Carlo champion Guillermo Vilas. ezekiel 04-15-2007, 03:21 PM something to fire you up http://images.sportsline.com/u/ap/photos/CIR104041509_1024x768.jpg PennyThePenguin 04-15-2007, 03:43 PM prettiest masters series :hearts: CassL 04-15-2007, 03:53 PM prettiest masters series :hearts: I know, and ATP wants to downgrade it :mad: PennyThePenguin 04-15-2007, 03:59 PM what do they know :ras: :ras: ataptc 04-15-2007, 04:19 PM Yeah the view is simply spectacular :hearts: (I've never really paid much attention to this event in the previous years :p ) belco 04-15-2007, 04:32 PM something to fire you up http://images.sportsline.com/u/ap/photos/CIR104041509_1024x768.jpg what a nice view...

Not good savesthedizzle 04-18-2007, 09:33 AM I am actually starting to feel ill. :( savesthedizzle 04-18-2007, 09:34 AM Is that Jelena there sitting next to Vajda? If so, I have an explanation for this. uglyamerican 04-18-2007, 09:36 AM I am actually starting to feel ill. :( Losing to a grand slam champion shouldn't make you ill. 1-0 Novak. I still like Novak's chances. Maya_4 04-18-2007, 09:36 AM It Was Close But It's 1:o For Nole!ajdeeeeeeeee Maya_4 04-18-2007, 09:37 AM Is that Jelena there sitting next to Vajda? If so, I have an explanation for this. YES IT'S HER! Jelena_78 04-18-2007, 09:37 AM 3 bpts Ajde Nole!!! Jelena is destracring him... savesthedizzle 04-18-2007, 09:38 AM Losing to a grand slam champion shouldn't make you ill. 1-0 Novak. I still like Novak's chances. Is that what all the people who lose to Ferrero get to say still too? And people who lose to Thomas Johansson? Gaudio is not that great anymore and Novak, if he wants people to respect his spot in the top 10 should not lose to people like this. It's not Novak losing that makes me ill, it's the way he's losing, playing craptastic tennis. He will just get broken back here. ataptc 04-18-2007, 09:38 AM He broke :banana: Jelena_78 04-18-2007, 09:38 AM Hvala Bogu! Ajde!!! savesthedizzle 04-18-2007, 09:40 AM He seems to have woken up a little bit but I'm still concerned. It's not like Nole to have a complete breakdown like that. Maya_4 04-18-2007, 09:40 AM Nole 2:0 Ajde uglyamerican 04-18-2007, 09:43 AM Df 0-30 savesthedizzle 04-18-2007, 09:45 AM Thank goodness. Where was Novak's brain for that second set? ataptc 04-18-2007, 09:45 AM What a mishit by Gaudio :o 4-0! :) Maya_4 04-18-2007, 09:46 AM Break!nole 4:0 Ajde Sad! Maya_4 04-18-2007, 09:48 AM O HVALA BOGU!:worship: 5:0:D ataptc 04-18-2007, 09:48 AM Thank goodness. Where was Novak's brain for that second set? Excited, thinking that he was gonna win easily maybe, and lost focus ataptc 04-18-2007, 09:49 AM If he could bagel Gaudio... :) uglyamerican 04-18-2007, 09:50 AM Thank goodness. Where was Novak's brain for that second set? Brain of a teenager. Mysterious territory. savesthedizzle 04-18-2007, 09:52 AM I just can't remember the last time Novak's brain took a vacation like that. If you had been watching Joe, it was just just really really poor. He went absolutely stupid. Usually Novak is one to stay focused, he's usually commended for his ability to do so. It's just very out of character, whether he is a teenager or not is irrelevant. I can't recall him doing that. :shrug: CassL 04-18-2007, 09:56 AM I left for a while after that dreadful second set, but he seems to do well now. uglyamerican 04-18-2007, 09:57 AM I just can't remember the last time Novak's brain took a vacation like that.

It's just very out of character, whether he is a teenager or not is irrelevant. I can't recall him doing that. :shrug: I'm glad I'm not watching, then. His mental strength is one of my favorite things about him. 2006 TB master and all. His play dropped a little (I think because of mental issues) in the last set in Miami. I was getting a bit ill at that point. ataptc 04-18-2007, 10:00 AM He won finally. Gosh, I hope that breakdown in the 2nd set isn't serious and won't happen again savesthedizzle 04-18-2007, 10:01 AM I'm glad I'm not watching, then.

If he would have lost this match it would not have sat well with me at all. silverwhite 04-18-2007, 10:04 AM Unexpectedly close match :help: Good play in the 3rd set though. He needs to improve his first serve percentage in his next match. ataptc 04-18-2007, 10:06 AM His 2nd serve percentage too.. 47% is quite low uglyamerican 04-18-2007, 10:08 AM Unexpectedly close match :help: Good play in the 3rd set though.

In the GM poll I voted for Novak in 3.;) Maya_4 04-18-2007, 10:08 AM Nole has to play much better if he wants to beat Ferrer in the next round!:( Anyway I believe in him and I'm sure that he can do it!;) :worship: Björki 04-18-2007, 10:09 AM Nole :banana: silverwhite 04-18-2007, 10:13 AM In the GM poll I voted for Novak in 3.;) Gaudio hasn't played this well in a while. :lol: Saumon 04-18-2007, 11:04 AM phew! I had to leave after the 2nd set and was scared after the crap Marat produced yesterday :( PennyThePenguin 04-18-2007, 01:41 PM phew! thank goodness he won. AJDE NOLE!!! adynadal 04-18-2007, 06:16 PM I couldn`t watch the match today because i was at school but i must say that you are expecting to much from Nole-this was his first serious match on clay for the season and he played agains Gaston Gaudio-an ex-RG champion,who dispite not being in best shape is one of the clay court specialists so a 3-sets win is a wonderful start for Nole because it will help him to get used to the clay and the conditions as a whole!with every match he`ll improve and he`ll be playing better and better which means that at the 1/4 finals he`ll blow past Rogelio like a hurricane!Ajde Nole-best luck and thousand kisses for tomorrow! :banana: :yeah: :bigclap: :bounce: :worship: :kiss: :kiss: :kiss: Saumon 04-18-2007, 06:22 PM COURT DES PRINCES 10:00 M Mirnyi (BLR) vs R Soderling (SWE) [12] D Ferrer (ESP) vs [6] N Djokovic (SRB) I Andreev (RUS) vs [16] J Ferrero (ESP) [LL] G Garcia-Lopez (ESP) vs [Q] P Kohlschreiber (GER) Scotso 04-18-2007, 07:39 PM Awww, I got up for the match but didn't think anyone would be on here at the time, so I didn't come on. It was pretty frustrating. Nole should have won 6-1 6-1, not 6-1 3-6 6-1 :p he didn't play very well. he'll have to do a lot better against Ferrer... but I'm confident he will. this was his first match on clay. Scotso 04-18-2007, 07:41 PM COURT DES PRINCES 10:00 M Mirnyi (BLR) vs R Soderling (SWE) [12] D Ferrer (ESP) vs [6] N Djokovic (SRB) I Andreev (RUS) vs [16] J Ferrero (ESP) [LL] G Garcia-Lopez (ESP) vs [Q] P Kohlschreiber (GER) I'm glad he's on court 2, where I can actually see the ball. Hopefully they show this one on TTC. but Federer is on at the same time so who knows :rolleyes: not like his match will be interesting. savesthedizzle 04-19-2007, 12:00 AM I'm glad he's on court 2, where I can actually see the ball. Hopefully they show this one on TTC. but Federer is on at the same time so who knows :rolleyes: not like his match will be interesting. I think they are likely to show a large portion of it at some point during the day, if not live, at some other time because it is going to be a LOT more interesting than the Federer match. jennyian 04-19-2007, 03:09 AM Wow he is facing a very, very tough draw! All clay-court experts. But i believe in him! Scotso 04-19-2007, 04:12 AM I think, as Nole says, it depends on him. He can blow Ferrer off the court if he plays well. I want him to play Federer again... and I want him to beat him to finally shut him up. Scotso 04-19-2007, 04:13 AM Although I'm sure Federer would have a good excuse. :rolleyes: jennyian 04-19-2007, 06:49 AM Why? Does Federer not like Nolé? That's a shame, they are my 2 most favorite players. 001 04-19-2007, 08:52 AM how is jelena looking? did anyone make a photo of her? good luck nole!!!!! savesthedizzle 04-19-2007, 09:49 AM Novak is on the scoreboard. :D NikolaBGD 04-19-2007, 09:52 AM you have the stream on bwin...

NikolaBGD 04-19-2007, 10:07 AM Bad start:( Scotso 04-19-2007, 10:08 AM Yes, it does. I was worried about Ferrer :scared: hopefully Nole can work his way into this one.

Scotso 04-19-2007, 10:12 AM Robredo lose his match, this is the big chance for #5 I wish you hadn't said that. Robredo hasn't lost yet, and he's a big fighter. Also, Tomas is a bit of a headcase. Scotso 04-19-2007, 10:12 AM I'm also a Mac user, though I'm on a PC right now. :p I have an iMac. Scotso 04-19-2007, 10:13 AM 2-1* Nole :D break him again!

Yeah :D I have my VCR ready :rolls: :D :dance: I don't know what they did, but I can actually see the ball today. I think part of it is that it seems overcast today so the shadow on the clay makes the contrast with the ball better... I think it was sunnier the last few days. :) Scotso 04-19-2007, 10:14 AM 4-2* Berdych in the third. c'mon Tomas! savesthedizzle 04-19-2007, 10:14 AM I'm also a Mac user, though I'm on a PC right now. :p I have an iMac.
