:help:

A bit early for some of us ;)

Damn, he lost the first set :(

4-6. Nice job, Jo-Willy. Thank you so much http://www.yoursmileys.ru/ssmile/negative/s0942.gif

:help:

You're taking this too seriously. From the scoreboard he just looks dead tired to me.

Barely surviving his own service games, not even bothering on Nieminem's. At least he won't get bageled like Del Potro.

Oh my god, set!

Boom that's what I call a hold-up. One point won on Jarko's serve in five games, then break to 15 and his only quasi-confortable service game of the set to clinch it.

total points won in second set JN : 41 JT : 36 :drink:

Crap.

Not a good start to the decider. He's barely winning anything on 2nd serve. Allez Jojo, I'd like to actually see him play finally :sad:

:sad:

Oranges: Jo has just returned from injury and Nemo is in good from. JWt will be back at his best down under (loves it there)..always performs there and he has time to recover from that injury of this. This match to jo is match practice. He was never going to be able to defend his points.

For anyone watchimg the match...does jo have an afro, or is his head shaved (Ao 2009)..or AO 2008 Hair style. Cheers

There is no stream as far as I know, just watching SB

Also does anyone have a stream?

whoops. Okay thanks. Why no steam its a 500 ffs. He will be better in shanghai hopefully (im dreaming paris 2008 from there)

That's the end of it :sad: See you in a week Jo, at least I hope there'll be coverage from day one for Shanghai.

:banghead: What perfect two days for me. http://www.yoursmileys.ru/ssmile/negative/s0942.gif

:crying2:

Finishingmove why are you lurking here. Do you even know who JWT is?. Good that Jo got something tennis under his belt and got a feel of the ball, Shanghai will be a better indication of his level. I also dont like it thats hes playing with that Babolat, was much better with the wilson. I know he said to jim courier that he liked it, but i dont know...

He lost 500 pts, but he had an awful first round, Nieminen played his best tennis last week

:dance:
He won his first match in Shanghai. Allez!

:dance:
He won his first match in Shanghai. Allez!

Phew, I was so nervous during his match, haven't seen it unfortunaely, only scoreboard (I am on work).:)

Welcome back to winning ways Jo! Such a long frustrating injury lay-off, not easy to get back to match fitness and dust the cobwebs, but take it a match at a time. Looking forward to great things ahead, especially in 2011.

Phew, I was so nervous during his match, haven't seen it unfortunaely, only scoreboard (I am on work).:)

at 8 o'clock i was just in the parisian tube and I just arrived at my office to look on fromsport the 3 last points of the match ! Jo looked powerful, and at the end like a kid who could play after a long time of rest ! so happy was his face !!!!

Good win today, happy to see him getting back on track.

me too

Jojo keeps marching on :bounce:

yes I hope so. Tomorow the rain will come again :devil: the opponent is mayer, a good round I think less complicated as for ririgasquette against the joker (djokovic) :p

Mayer proving to be a pest so far. Tsonga lacks concentration atm. He should pull though, hes clearly the much better player. Score is 7-5 2-3 30-15, Mayer a break up right now.

Tsonga getting frustrated easily as well

:woohoo: Quarter!

came back really well there, good to see. Has he got Muzza next?, god thats gonna be tough

I don't see the match, so why did you say "Mayer proving to be a pest so far" ?

:sad: Very poor performance from Jo today, completely awful.
Good luck in Europe Indoor Jo-Wi :hug:

poor result !!!! :devil:
i would like to see the best of him and other frenchies at Bercy !
