Is the Rome site working for everyone?

Is the Rome site working for everyone?
for me at the moment: yes, it works fine

damn, Kiwi breaks too early... he should have better saved this break for the end of the set, he's not going to hold it the whole 1st set anyway, I think :scared:

Kiefer *2:0 wow

damn early break for Kiefer

I'm guessing that you aren't supporting "Sexy Stepanek?" ;)

Weasel and Mathieu actually. :)

I want Kiefer to win today.

kiwiiiiiiii :banana:

Does anyone in the UK know if sky have interactive coverage of the play? I want to watch the Haas v Kiefer game, anyone know if it is being shown?

Thanks

kiwiiiiiiii :banana:
relax ;) he found thousands of ways to blow the breaks against Gaudio last time and I'm sure he will lose his serve again this time as well

Come on Brad Pitt :D

they are playing really reallly long rallies either that or score board is lagging

relax ;) he found thousands of ways to blow the breaks against Gaudio last time and I'm sure he will lose his serve again this time as well
And it looks like hes about to do the same again...

Haas break point...

Morning all

BRAD BROKE!!! SHOW ME DA MONEY! :D $$$$$$$$$$

saved!

this Haas and Kiefer must be playing moonballs

come on Fernando :bounce:

Anyone got a direct link to the scoreboard please.

http://www.telecomitaliamasters.it/ isn't working for me.

Morning all

Still celebrating after Feli's great performance.

Come on Kiefer, dislike is reason enough to win this match, just think Haas is Becker as a person and not in tennis ability.

pff Mario:rolleyes:
1-3:mad:

break point saved again Kiefer

Anyone got a direct link to the scoreboard please.

Yes, I´ve always loved circus :)

They are showing Coria-Gonzales..what a boring match

what a dogfight from these two Germans!

If anyone wants to watch live tennis from Rome on your computer then visit www.sportingstreams.com

Well Kiefer is having in there if nothing else

Steppy! :yeah:

what a dogfight from these two Germans!
what a joke claycourt tennis is, isn't it?

http://lss.atptennis.com/2005/0416/frameset.asp?eventid=0416&bgcolour=2E4A3B&lang=EN
Thanks, much appreciated.

*4/1 Steppy :eek: :eek:

Stepanek breaks Mario twice. I love this $hit! :D

what a joke claycourt tennis is, isn't it?

this gmae could possibly last for three hours

Haas:(

Haas vs Kiefer is good for hardcourt, indoor or grass.... but I don't like it being played on clay at all
it's never good if these two play against each other and on clay Kiefer sucks more than Haas, normally

sportingstream is not FREE

They are showing Coria-Gonzales..what a boring match

Did u enjoy more Roddick-Rusedski yesterday?

c'mon Ancic break back!

Fuck Haas:(

sportingstream is not FREE

£1 a week... :rolleyes: You wont be poor :lol:

Kiwi :bounce:
vamos Gonzo

Did u enjoy more Roddick-Rusedski yesterday?

kinda :lol:

what a joke claycourt tennis is, isn't it?

No bigger joke than servefests that are 7-6 6-7 7-6 6-7 33-31 with the ball in play for 10 mins in the whole match.

Fuck Haas:(
Don't so hard on him, according to own statements he has at the moment more difficult problems off the court

Did u enjoy more Roddick-Rusedski yesterday?

That was the epitome of claycourt tennis.

Don't so hard on him, according to own statements he has at the moment more difficult problems off the court

I´ve heard about those personal problems, do u know what kind they are, Neely?

Yes, I´ve always loved circus :)

I was watching the match and thought you'd loved every minute.

socreline does not really reflect story...both players having trouble wirth service..except that Kiefer managed to capitalized

Mario, Break, stupid... :(

you idiot Mario:rolleyes::rolleyes:

Cmon HAAS!!!!!!!!!:(

Mario keeps making first sevefaults... :(

That was the epitome of claycourt tennis.

Yes, good session the one I had yesterday, Roddick, Rusedski, T.Johansson, J.Johansson and Lalo, the best thing is that avoided zapping... And btw, yesterday I found even more evidences of López being Carlsen´s son :D

Well played Step, cruising.

Hold Fernando

I was watching the match and thought you'd loved every minute.

You gotta love Lalo for those good laughs.

Haas needs to take this game to built his confidence and then try to break Kiefer once to make it at least to three points

Yes, good session the one I had yesterday, Roddick, Rusedski, T.Johansson, J.Johansson and Lalo, the best thing is that avoided zapping... And btw, yesterday I found even more evidences of López being Carlsen´s son :D

Seppi didn't even have to play that well yesterday that was the funny thing. I'll be out soon and off watching these novices play today.

Mario break... :(

Vamos Gonza!!!!!!

I´ve heard about those personal problems, do u know what kind they are, Neely?
After the match against Pavel he was asked about that and he said that he prefers not talking about and to keep it private. He only said he must work on it to get over it to put other things behind him when he is playing tennis.

LOL, I really hope not, he has already had enough injuries the last months and other picky things in his private life... so just another injury wouldn't do him good, to say the least.
