Brisbane R1: Duckworth def. Mahut 6-4 6-4

Are you serious?

Great win for the 19 year old!

Awesome! Duckworth was down 1*-4 first set. The 19 year old is a perfect 1-0 at tour level.

Duckworth! Awesome start to 2012. After a great 2011 :dance: Well deserved tough match up next against Simon.

It was a good draw for Duckie and he took advantage, excellent win. Great experience next round against most likely Simon.

What an epic name that is. I haven't seen this youngster play but boy will he get some stick just for his surname at MTF. Wish him luck in R2, especially if it's against Simon.

never in doubt

Nerver heard of him,who?Duckworth Lewis?

Mahut just got Ducked up!

I've watched Duckie play in AO WC playoffs and boy has the exact kind of game to frustrate Mahut on slow HC...NID I guess

Ducksauce :yeah:. Mahut :lol:.

Continuing with the form that got him through to the final of the wildcard playoff :) Good luck to him :yeah:

Roddickworthy

Lol I saw him the last summer winning this future (http://www.itftennis.com/mens/tournaments/tournamentresults.asp?tournament=1100024573&event=) here, but I didn't expect him to defeat Mahut.. I'm happy for him, I liked his game ;)

Anybody can beat Mahut and this young player done great in 2011.. and he can finally do something fo Australia on clay

Nice victory, waiting for Mitchell and Tomic now

well done duchy :bowdown:

always good to see mahut lose, on a serious note always good to see some fresh blood in the atp

Good win for Duckworth, hopefully this gives him the confidence to step up a class.

well done duckworth fantastic win!

For a moment there I was wondering what was up with the new Roddick nickname.

Nice win for Duckworth ;)

Said it once and I'll say it again, reading posts about Duckies can only be a positive thing for MTF. Get going up those rankings you Aussie wizard.

1 for 1 at ATP level, my guess is not many win their first match at this level. Loads of wins in futures and challengers last year, though especially on clay.

I saw him in Krakow Futures last year, but didn't expect he'll make it to top 300 so quick.

the 19 year old did well :)

Awesome! Duckworth was down 1*-4 first set. The 19 year old is a perfect 1-0 at tour level.

He should retire now with both the best record and greatest name in ATP history. Great win for the youngster.
