anyone watching nalbandian match?

not watching it but following it through internet. He's up in the first set 4-0

thanx my friend

You're welcome, but now the live scores have frozen and have no idea what is going on...

scoreboard is frozen..........i only have the hewitt match on tv

The best I've got is:

Gaudio v Hewitt 6-1
Henman v Sanchez 5-3
Nalbandian v Mantilla 4-0

if anyone watching on tv can keep updating the scores it would be very much appreciated.

Gooooooo David !!! :yeah:

Anybody watch on tv?? What is the current stand??? :worship:

Nalbandian's match is not on tv, it won't be broadcasted...maybe that's why it's not updated

Gaudio hits an ace, score now 0-2 in the second, Hewitt to serve.

Hewitt his a crosscourt forehand winner, 15-0

Till the stupid Live Score froze, David was leading 4-0 (Ad-40)

how is nalbandian doing. it was 4-0 about 20 mins ago.

Hewitt double faults, 15-15, and a nice drop volley from Hewitt, it's 30-15

Wide forehand from Hewitt, 30-30. John Barret hasn't mentioned anything about David, so I don't know. A down the line forehand winner from Hewitt, and it's 40-30.

Henman breaks early in the 2nd, 6-3 *1-0

Gaudio hits a great dropshot, duece, but Hewitt hits a slider ace, Ad/40.

Man has Hewitt even had a break point?

news on Feliciano Lopez-Massu?

scoreboards working again, Nalbandian 6-0 2-2

nalbandian 6-0 2-2

Ok David won the first set 6-0 2-2

Gaudio hits a crosscourt backhand winner, duece. Long backhand from Gaudio makes it Ad/40

Nalbandian 6-0 2-2

Lopez 2-1* up.

Gaudio 6-1, 2-0*
Henman 6-3, 1*- 0
Nalbandian 6-0, 2-2*
FLo 2-1*

Gaudio hits a backhand return winner, duece. Hewitt gets a lucky net court, Ad/40

How poorly is Hewitt playing, Domino?

Feli up 2-1*

What happened to Hewitt 2001/2002??? He once was unbeatable and today he's just a shadow of himself

come on David Sanchez :devil:

wow Gaudio, peeling some potato :D

I think that Hewitt achieved so many of his goals so early -- winning first one slam, then Wimbledon, being No. 1 for so many weeks, great Davis Cup wins -- that he lost some of his drive. He wanted to relax a little and enjoy life. He's very young, so he'll regain his drive, it's just a matter of time. Agassi went through the same thing, only worse.

nalbandian breaks in the 2nd *4-3 up now

david breaks for 4-3 :)

Agassi is different. He wants to win all the time and Llleyton hasn't won shit on clay. There are some goals left.

massu also gets the break in the first againt Lopez 3*-2 up

anyone watching Henman vs Sanchez? whats going on?

When Agassi was ranked in the lower 100s and playing chalengers back in 1997/98, he didn't want to win all the time. And you forget that he used to skip Wimbledon because he was convinced he was shit on grass. At least Lleyton always enters Roland Garros.

Not watching it but can get game-by-game updates here:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/tennis/3645641.stm

I'm (foolishly) not gonna rule out Hewitt yet.

Yes!!!
david is up 6-0 5-3

Agassi worked hard after 1997/98 to win Roland Garros and he did it in 1999. Lleyton still has two more goals in his career. To win the Austrlian Open and Roland Garros. In my opinion he has the ability to win both but he's too lazy at the moment. He should work harder like Agassi did when he was out of the best 100 and played on challengers.

David Sanchez slowly getting back but its still on serve

5-4 Sanchez

I don't know what your problem with Henman is but you seem to be more concerned with putting energy into being negative about players you dislike than positive about players you like.

NOOOOO Felix breaks back

Nalbandian fucks up 5-5

I'm not sure that Hewitt is lazy, but I do think he's definitely not as focused on tennis as he was when he was 16-21. And he definitely wants to win the Aussie Open (he himself sounds doubtful about Roland Garros). He'll turn it around, I'm sure.

someone needs to unoaf lleyton :smash:

Massu with 2 breaks now, running away with the set,

looks like Sanchez Henman is going to a tb, neither are having trouble on their serves

Come on Tim, a break here would be nice.

And now David is 6-0 5-6...

guys i really dont think its that big a deal that Hewitt is losing, hes never been that good on clay. Gaudio, however is really really good and although the scoreline doesnt show it, Hewitt is putting up a real fight

he's definitely not as focused on tennis as he was when he was 16-21.

since he's together with kim ;)

Felix 6-5 in 2nd

David served for match at 5-4

someone needs to unoaf lleyton :smash:

I don't disagree with you. But it won't be Kim. Sadly, he seems to have taken on more of her attitude toward tennis, when she should have taken on his attitude back in 2000/2001. She's already thinking retirement and babies when she should be thinking about playing like a crazed maniac in grand slam finals.

nice hold Sanchez, phew 6-5
now break him

Venga David !!!!!!!!!

Massu 6-2 :eek:
he's hardly won a match all yr and suddenly in a TMS he wins one and next a set 62

:explode: shit, Gaudio, Henman and Nalbandian have all started to struggle for some reaosn

mantilla with set point

don't get me wrong. i'm a big fan of lleyton. i just want to see him back on track.

Mantilla 7-5

i expect the Grinder to win the 3rd 6-3

Massu is awesome on clay, dont you remember his amazing streak in the autumn clay court stretch?

No!!!! Mantilla won the set 6-0 5-7

don't get me wrong. i'm a big fan of lleyton. i just want to see him back on track.

Me, too. I'd like to see him travel with his parents as much as he did back in 2000/2001, because they do a great job motivating him, much better than any of his coaches or Kim. Having them there definitely works for him.

Don't tell me Sanchez is gonna snatch this set.

Gaston breaks again *6-5

3-2 Gaudio - double fault from Lleyton
3-3 Gaudio can't get back a deep forehand from Lleyton

Boiled Egg, where are you mate? You're uncharacteristically quiet. ;)

* Fucking Hell Man!!!

Be agressive & hit the winners!!! If you can beat Kuerten in Brazil, Costa in Barcelona *** then you can deal with Gaudio! Don't let the fans forget who you are & what your made of...

Well done David Nalbandian to get back on serve :D Vamos!

Henman had MP, now BP down

Sanchez gets a break back after saving 2 MPS, *2-5. I wouldn't be surprised to see Boiled Egg re appear.

Gaudio does this so many times i can't get angry at him anymore.. it's so sad...

Anyone watching the match, or all folowing lives-scores?

Hopefully Lleyton can keep this up and get what seemed to eb a very unlikely victory.

Anyone watching the match, or all folowing lives-scores?
I am watching the Hewitt match, if that's the one you mean?

Lleyton just broke to love.

How's Lleyton playing now, Raquel?

Yes, David held his service! 4-4

Lleyton breaks to love.

Is David having troubles with his serving now?

Gaudio is a true chocker

Henman better not choke here.

I fell asleep watching the 3rd set :zzz:

Henman serving for match 5-3

How's Lleyton playing now, Raquel?
He is making a lot less unforced errors than he was through most of the second set, but still more than usual from him. He fought very well when it mattered though. He is also hitting quite a few double faults, but playing smart in the long rallies and not going for too much like in the first set.

Gaudio :o :mad:

I am watching the Hewitt match, if that's the one you mean?

Lleyton just broke to love.
Yeah I was talking about that match.

Come on Lleyton, HOLD!

Thanks for the info, Raquel. Well played Lleyton, 2-0*.

Yes, David held his service! 4-4
Jazz he just broke again, now serving for the match!! :D

Henman flukes a shot, hit middle of net and somehow crawled over
would have been 15-30 and not 30-15

now 40-15 :o
all over :zzz:

the Vampire will bite him tomorrow

Yes!!!! David broke him! Now he's serving for match! 5-4

mantilla chocked

Massu serving for the match 5-4

Henman fluked his way all through the match, how dare he even win a point against the far superior Sanchez.

Gaston Gaudio........ he makes WTA players serves look good.

a master of choking not seen anywhere else.
he does it over and over and over again :rolleyes:

massu will beat henman tomorrow ;)

Oh David don't pull a Gaudio please...

come on nalbandian. don't lose your serve now.

BP Lleyton.

Hewitt now 3-0 in the 3rd :)

i can't believe nalbandian. what does he want??????

Felix breaks 5-5

i think that's it for nalbandian :( his chance has gone!!!!

David :sad: :sad:
Keep fighting!

Lleyton 4-0 :)

4-0 Hewitt.

early in the 2nd set you could get 25/1 on a Hewitt win.

lleyton is an expert when it comes to turn around a match :)

Gaudio too ...the other way around :)

David and Felix into 3rd set tiebreak. Come on David!!!

FS tiebreaker :eek:

Yeah GO Lleyton:D!!!

I still don't think Lleyton is home and dry yet.

El Vampiro won 62 64

Come on, Nalby!

Gaston Gaudio........ he makes WTA players serves look good.

a master of choking not seen anywhere else.
he does it over and over and over again :rolleyes:

Just the way Federer and Ferrero chocked in those Davis Cup matches against Lleyton ;) ?

David 4-2 up in TB :D

What's the score now with Hewitt/Gaudio??

Lleyton wins 1-6, 7-6, 6-1 :bounce:

2 mp's saved :woohoo:

Hewitt d. Gaudio 1-6 7-6 (5) 6-1 (saved 2 mps)

Mr Wimp goes down with a whimper :help:

2 mp's Nalby
Nalby won 7-4 in TB

David won!!! :bounce: 6-0, 5-7, 7-6

David was 0-3 down in the third

Well done David :worship:

Nalbandian d. Mantilla 6-0 5-7 7-6 (4)

now its nearly OAF time

OAF vs the Beast.

Nalby! :bounce:

David won!!!!!

bloody hell!!!!! that was hard work just watching!!!!

yeah well done Lleyton:D!!!

I was so tense, thank god he won!!! LOL!!!

Well done Lleyton :cool:

Max is looking rather gorgeous in that sleeveless top :drool: :o

Go the Beast!

Hewitt: ...........at least we still got another Chicken Plucker still alive
Massu has also been know to shoot chickens in his time ;)

^@@^ OH YEAH BABY,.the sweet smell of success!!

-> The casual observer will say "so what Lleyton beat Gaudio to get Rd3..."; however Hewitt's true fans will know that today's tournaround (1-6,7-6,6-1) was far more significant!!
* Let me be the 1st to say that today signals a great turnaround for Lleyton & the rest of his clay ambitions leading up to Rolland Garros, & also for the rest of the year.

# Nobody except Hewitt knows the true reason he's struggled in 03/04 & he's the only one who knows how to re-discover his top form.

I've already predicted that Rocky Llegs will win FO & judging by today's promising reversal of fortunes I'll stick by my fairytale vision of Hewitt holding the trophy somehow%%!!!%%

3 bp's Calleri
takes 3rd one *2-1

good luck Nikolay :) on soon

and go Marat !!!!!!!!!!!!

Marat breaks 1-0 :D :)

Calleri *4-1

Max is looking rather gorgeous in that sleeveless top :drool: :o


He was wearing that too when I saw him playing in Rotterdam :cool:

uh-oh... Oaf

14:28 Mirnyi is a sitting duck at the net for Safin, who is rooted in the middle of the baseline, and taking passing shots... the Russian breaks on his second point for 1-0

2-0 Oaf :)

14:32 Safin decides to stay back in his first service game and holds to 15 for 2-0...

2-1 Safin

Sorry to interupt the Safin saga, but...................

GUILLE!!!!
http://www.click-smilies.de/sammlung0304/huepfen/jumping-smiley-004.gifhttp://www.click-smilies.de/sammlung0304/huepfen/jumping-smiley-004.gifhttp://www.click-smilies.de/sammlung0304/huepfen/jumping-smiley-004.gif

14:36 Mirnyi isn't such gun-ho anymore and only attacks short balls if absolutely certain he can win the point, he gets his name on the scoreboard for the first time... 1-2

Marat *3-2 :D
Kolya 2-0 :)
Calleri 6-2
Pavel 3-1 and 2 bp's

14:43 Mirnyi serve-volleys his way to 2-3, but remains a break behind... there are plenty of spectators in the audience cheering on Safin now

safin 4-2*
calleri 6-2/*1-0
davydenko 3-1*
pavel *3-2

14:46 Safin continues to serve strongly and is now running to the net, to put away high floated shots from Mirnyi, who attempts to stay in the rallies... 4-2

14:49 Minryi with a service hold to love, Safin appears content to stay just the one break ahead... 3-4

14:53 Safin holds to 15 with Minryi unable to come up with the passing shots... very little for the fans to cheer... SAFIN leads 5-3...

Marat serve it out now *5-4 :)

Kolya *3-2

Marat 6-4 :yeah: :D
served it out to love :)

Come on JONAS!! Fight. http://www.click-smilies.de/sammlung0304/sauer/angry-smiley-022.gif

14:56 Mirnyi holds, but Safin's mind is on closing out the first set... the Belarusian seems unable to test his opponent... but this can change quickly...

14:58 FIRST SET SAFIN... a service hold to love, mixing up the pace and direction of the serves... 6-4... the 24-year-old certainly has a shot at the title this week...

:)

this might sound ridiculous, but what does "OAF" mean ? :)

I'm curious too about OAF meaning!!!

Marat breaks 2-1 :D :)

great BH CC return :D

he also had a brill FH angled dink pass CC as well to go 15-30

I'm curious too about OAF meaning!!!

just type OAF into google and find out :wavey:

An oaf is a rather stupid person (a fool), that's all. Don't know why it's spelled in CAPITALS, though!

this might sound ridiculous, but what does "OAF" mean ? :)

http://www.menstennisforums.com/showthread.php?t=9936&page=6&pp=15 ;)

However, Marat's OAF syndrome did not relapse today YET :p

Pavel 6-2 :)

Kolya serving for set 5-2 30-15 ;)

Marat held to 30 6-4 3-1

a great return drop shot winner from Max though

15:03 Mirnyi is forced to use all his reach at the net, as Safin seems to find a way to pass... a pretty good game for the 26-year-old, he holds for 1-0

15:06 In contrast to Mirnyi's struggles, Safin holds for 1-1 to love... the Russian's exploits in Estoril last week have certainly helped his confidence...

15:09 Safin BREAKS Mirnyi on his second point, as the Belarus star forces his first serves into court... at the change of ends, Safin leads 2-1, and is coasting through the match...

Calleri bt Escude 2&3

just type OAF into google and find out :wavey:


Can't find a decent meaning of this.

I'm portuguese and OAF is a soccer club here

15:14 Despite showing some court-craft with well-placed drop-shots and volleys, Mirnyi cannot claim a break point... Safin holds for 3-1...

15:15 Mirnyi returns to the net on both serves once more... Safin is playing superb tennis this afternoon, and making his opponent look very average...

Calleri d. Escude 62 63
