against Ivo Karlovic 6-4, 6-1 :yippee:

On clay, if he hadn't, it would have been a veeerrry bad sign.

Great job Juan Carlos ! :D

On clay, if he hadn't, it would have been a veeerrry bad sign.

He gave enough bad signs for one year ;)

WoW what a surprise :rolleyes:

I would like to see a re-match on grass. ;)
Ivo would kill him with 35+ aces. :)

:eek: are you sure?? i thought for sure karlovic had this one in the bag, especially on clay, his favorite surface ;)
congrats JCF :D

:banana: JC!

JC:banana: well done man, keep it up:yeah:!!!

hmm.. but this is Karlovic he's playing. I swear if we had to start each point on an underhand serve that I could give Ivo a run for his money!

:woohoo: congrats juanqui :worship:
please keep on playing like this :banana:

I am ridiculously happy about this win. :woohoo:

is his hair really long? anyone have a recent pic, i saw that he had a headband on and it seemed like he had a ponytail, wanted to hear about it

He hasn't got a ponytail he's just taken to wearing an awful bandana

well done JC.
Ferrero has offically recieved today the 1st WC for ATP Barcelona ! :)

gracias, alvarillo! buenas noticias!

do you have a report for us fr Valencia tournament as a linesman? ;)

Congrats JC! :bounce: :bigclap: :bounce:

Well done JCF :D
Keep it up :yeah:

lol, if JC hadnt won this it would have been the end!

vamos ferrero

yeah jc :banana: keep it up, loadsa points to be gained here!!! :woohoo: :yeah:

lotsa pts to be gained, but not until he reaches the 3rd round that he can start gaining. Me was nervous to check the score even it's only Dr Ivo he's playing, but after his last match where I expect a 3 setter and he ended up winning just 3 games, anything can happen. Now, just really regain some form that everyone has been saying that he is regaining. I need some concrete proof to be convinced. There is still hope for a seeding in RG. Best of luck.

WAY TO GO JCF!!!!! :bigclap:

JCF :woohoo:

Yeah I know that Juan Carlos beating Karlovic on clay is like saying who has better odds of surviving a fit line or an injured antelope in the middle of no where, but at least he beat someone he should have, maybe he can develop a bit of confidence and make a decent run here on this tournie. Good luck Juanqui! :)

Great job Juan Carlos! :yeah:

Sounds like he played pretty well too, which is so nice to hear. Only 8 unforced errors compared to Karlovic's 33.

Keep up it please! :hug: :D

That head diaper needs to go, but congrats Juan Carlos.

oops me and my typos, by the way I meant a "fit lion versus an injured antelope"....

that bandana looked like a bandage... looked like he got hit by a truck on his head! still, im happy too!

will someone please post a pic? i need to see this bandana atrocity!!

yayyyyyyyyyy I'm over the moooooooon :dance: :bounce: :woohoo: WELL DONE JC! :yeah:

he's wearing a bandana now????? :eek: why hide that beautiful hair :confused:

If this was on any other surface, we would not need a thread for this victory.

well, this isn't on any other surface.. so shut it :p :p :p he won, let us be happy for him :D

Heheehehee ok.

Please dont make joke of Ivo's talent, remember last year Ivo nearly won against champion Roger in Gastad. With his serve he can win any match against anyone on any surface, :D
but with his rest of the game, he can lose any match against anyone on any surface ;)

Yay Ferrero won... now for another win, por favor... time to turn this crap around...

All this celebrating of a simple first round win, shows how far he's dropped.

Pretty much.

At least Ferrero won this match. Maybe he can build on this.

He's a shadow of his former self.

All he's got now is movie star looks.

Maybe he can appear in Hidalgo II.

His game is pretty much the same, he plays well in spurts, it just not as effective as it used to be to tour players like it was 2 yrs ago.

Perhaps he should upgrade his equipments from 2 years ago.

he played with prince rackets 2 years ago and now he plays with head rackets ;)

Come on Ferrero, Marat is next. Do your best. :yeah:

Yay Ferrero won... now for another win, por favor... time to turn this crap around...{B}


Ferrero's stock will go up a few notches if he beats Safin tomorrow. Winning the first set could cause a 'blow up' in Marat's game. It would be a triumph of the rapier against the two-handed sword.
