Houston R2: Massu def. Sweeting 6-7 (5) 7-6 (3) 6-4

Typical Massu, 3 hours 25 minutes

Epic mugfest :lol:

Match lasted 3 weeks, the tours already in Rome.

Great stuff Nico, be great to see him make another run again.

Massu still has it in him :lol:

Nico :woohoo:

Unbelievably pathetic loss, but coming from Ryan, completely expected. Never before has a player so spectacularly managed to keep himself from making to the top-100.

amazing fight (as always) Nico :yeah:

hey 5 matches, 5 days for Sweeting - gave massu longest atp match of this year, in all tourneys -
i say Sweeting has heart
handled korolev nicely, after being only american to qualify for both miami and houston -

and face it - if he met querry and/or isner, he would beat them. He is a seriously better natural player with way more upside.
GO RYAN :yeah:

Never in doubt.

I was watching the livescore of this match until the first set and when Massú lost it after about one hour I thought to myself "Ah, Massú will win in three sets anyway".

Then hours later I log onto the Internet and this is the result.

Grande cojones Massu......

Noooo, what a chance for a breakthrough. Was 7-6 2-0 up...

Massu :worship:

vamos !

Massu must have most 3+ hrs matches in best of 3 sets ever! :lol:
