RG R1: Ancic beats up Seppi 6-2 7-6(1) 6-2

:worship:

Marrero most likely next.

Good work Ancic.

well start mario

Pathetic Seppi :fiery:

:awww: Andi
He was leading 4-1 in the 2nd when the stupid rain popped up :(

Congrats to Mario!

Seppi had 4-1 in the 2nd set, then had the chance to serve for the set, but as usual he couldn't do it.

Ancic handled the delays much better and should meet Federer in the 3rd round.

rain delay had quite the effect on this one. well done mario!

Good win, good cameback in second.

shame about the rain and loss of momentum in the 2nd set but nothing surprising about the result
Ancic is top 5 material IMO

Just started raining now as well.

:woohoo:

Seppi continues to prove he's the biggest choker on the ATP :zzz:

I suspect Seppi wasn't 100% for some reason, I wasn't impressed at all with Ancic on clay this season. We'll see how Ancic fares in the next rounds

You always seem to look for the excuse. Ancic matches up well with Seppi. There were rain interruptions and yes that means rain on both sides of the court.

Got to be able to adapt to the circumstances Ancic was able to do that and take his chances and Seppi wasn't. No, there is nothing wrong with Seppi physically.

super mario..!!!!

Mario :D If this match got a set or two longer it would be a lot bigger trouble for Mario to win it, I think he still isn't ready for long clay matches. Should beat Marrero and then a match against Federer.

Good win for Mario, Seppi failed to take his chances in the 2nd set.

Good win for Super Mario, I thought that this would be trickier match for him.

che straccione

che straccione

New italian word for me, thanks ;)

mario :D:D good luck next round!

Bravo Mario; my favourite wins against a player I dislike the most after Robredo; life can not be better...

Arriverderci Seppi....

:)

Good start Mario ;)

Another rather surprising scoreline if not result - well done to Ancic :)

Ancic!

I wxas in Roland Garros yesterday and I saw mario's match against seppi... He played very well except in the second set... I hope he will have a great match against federer but it will be very difficult!
