Simon Greul wieder in Dresden

http://www.atpdresden.com/atpdd/_images/simon_greul_06-tm.jpg (http://www.atpdresden.com/atpdd/_images/simon_greul_06.jpg)Simon wer? fragten sich die internationalen Medien im März des vergangenen Jahres, als plötzlich ein 24-jähriger Deutscher die Tenniswelt durcheinander wirbelte. Der Stuttgarter Simon Greul hatte bei seinem ersten Masters Turnier in Miami Größen wie Dominik Hrbaty und Tim Henman aus dem Turnier geworfen. Dabei wollte er als Qualifikant nur die erste Runde des Hauptfeldes erreichen. Erst der Amerikaner Andy Roddick konnte den unbekannten Deutschen im Achtelfinale stoppen. 2006 wurde das erfolgreichste Profijahr, seit Simon Greul 2000 auf der Tour startete. Nach seinem durchschlagenden Erfolg in den USA, sorgte er auch im Dresdner Waldpark für Furore, holte sich den 2. Ostdeutschen Sparkassen Cup. Im Finale besiegte der damals an zwei gesetzte Greul den Topgesetzten Janko Tipsarevic aus Serbien in zwei Sätzen. Anfang Juni gewann der Mann mit dem Einser-Abitur die Baden-Open in Ettlingen, um danach erstmals in Wimbledon aufzuschlagen. Ein weiterer Challenger-Titel folgte in Cordoba, bevor er in seinem Heimatort Stuttgart auch seinen weitaus bekannteren Landsmann Rainer Schüttler bezwang.
Greul schaffte in der Weltrangliste 2006 erstmals den Sprung unter die Top 100, seine bisher höchste Platzierung datiert
vom 30. Oktober 2006 mit Rang 75. Derzeit ist Greul die 82 der Welt.

Good luck to Matthias Bachinger.

Good luck Maximo Gonzalez, Brian Dabul and Diego Junqueira :)

One WC ist going to Florian Mayer, who will be top-seeded.

Another WC ist going to local player Christian Haupt.

That's awfully close from Wrocław. Too bad I'm even more awfully busy with studies. Maybe I can pull out going there for a day though.

Mayer is 2nd alt in Rome. I guess if he gets in there, he will flush his wildcard down the toilet. :)

I didn't know. But sounds possible. ;)

I only read about his WC in the videotext of mdr.

GL to werner "challenger king" eschauer!

Mayer really withdrew from Rome. Skips a Masters on his fave surface for playing a challenger. :lol:

So I was right. ;)

Harel Levy (ISR) vs Tobias Summerer (GER) is today?

There is something wrong with Dresden ATP profile anyway. I can understand they say "Prize money" is "0 $" (all went for appearance money for Mayer) but I can't understand why there's no OOP.

But on the official website we should go to "Download" and there's the OOP
http://www.atpdresden.com/atpdd/_downloads/order_to_play/OP.pdf

And there's no Levy's match.

Any score from today? Dustov maybe... ;)

This is one of the challengers that "thinks" :) some set by set update from central court does the job.

I hope Dustov won anyway.

(Yes, I called)

Thx mate

You're welcome :wavey:

Thx Black Mamba!

Mayer just needs to win this tournament to get his confidence back.
I think Eschauer is certainly one of the best Challenger Tour players out there and win over him would be only good for Flori.
At his best Mayer certainly is very good clay court player.

I hope Mayer can from now on produce something good on his tennis for
a while because now is the time to get matches on his belt and prove
Kühnen that he is a worth of DC line-up and prove to himself that he can
be again there at the top 30.

Good luck to Flori and Tobi. Make that German Final.

I guess Kamke will get a wc for Hamburg, so that his loss has something positive at least. :rocker2:

Jean-Christophe :sad:

Schukin :)

Mayer vs. Eschauer: 7:6, 1:2

Mayer def. Eschauer: 7:6, 6:4

c mon Schukin

any scores?

Florian :)

Summerer - Schukin

in a tie-break in the first set.

Mayer really withdrew from Rome. Skips a Masters on his fave surface for playing a challenger. :lol:

RIght now this is looking like a good decision, best case at Rome was 2nd round in my opinion but he'll get more points here.

No score?

Schukin 76 64

:) Yuri

flo :D

RIght now this is looking like a good decision, best case at Rome was 2nd round in my opinion but he'll get more points here.

But he doesn't need that points anyway. He doesn't use them. :shrug: The sense of making ranking points is to get into main draws of the top events.

Any news about Florian Mayer?

mayer 6-7 :armed:

mayer 6:7 2:3 :(

Mayer don't choke!

Florian what happend? where is your form? You have to will win today! 6:7 2:3 it's a joke? it's not funny!

Who's know what result? Maybe You Columbus?

No I only know what's written on the HP

6-7 5-5

it will be second tie break, I hope mayer will win!

unbelievable to lose 2 TBs, what a loser is Mayer

Florian :sad:

Yuri Schukin :woohoo: russian vodka :banana:
