Roland Garros R2: Albert Montanes def. Ruben Ramirez-Hidalgo 6-7(5) 6-4 6-1 6-2

The better player won :shrug: After the first set, he destroyed him :yeah:

Phew! At a set and a break down I was :scared:

Congrats to Albert on taking advantage of the choke and injury. Onto Prostejov for Ruben.

Ruben:hug:

Set and break up:( But still a nice tournament:p

RRH was well in it for the first 2 sets, but then just fell apart. I really couldn't imagine Montanes losing it though

Albert has a good chance against Youzhny, but I hope Misha wins

thank goodness for this

Montanes picking up some valuable points here. R4 very possible.

Congrats to Albert on taking advantage of the choke and injury. Onto Prostejov for Ruben.
Not only was he injured, but he also choked? :rolleyes:

Too good Montanes!!! :worship: Beat Youzhny and make round 4! :woohoo:

i survived in suicide tennis, picking montanes :lol:

anyway, great victory. hope he beats youzhny

Not only was he injured, but he also choked? :rolleyes:

That was said out of anger :o:sad: But yes, he was injured. He was up a set and a break. He was so close.

Was he actually injured or are you just surmising?

The Mountains is a dangerous floater in the draw I think.

I love it when people choke vs my players. Makes for a nice change
6-7 2-4 to
6-7 6-4 6-1 6-2

RRH took an injury timeout before/in set 4.

RRH - isn't that a cool name? Reminds me of Highlander.

Congratulations crazy Albert!

Congratulations crazy Albert!

You shouldn't have gravedigged this thread. It reminded me when Fognini defeated Montanes thus reaching (and fortunately not playing) the QFs :facepalm:.
