... To get past the first couple of rounds in Grand Slams... He lost again, 6-4 6-4 6-4 to Jürgen Melzer. Does anyone have a theory on the fact that Ljubicic cannot get far in a Grand Slam tournament?
There goes another chance for Ljubo...SuperFurryAnimal 06-21-2005, 01:08 PM ... To get past the first couple of rounds in Grand Slams... He lost again, 6-4 6-4 6-4 to Jürgen Melzer. Does anyone have a theory on the fact that Ljubicic cannot get far in a Grand Slam tournament? Poljud 06-21-2005, 01:20 PM Back injury, since before French Open. SuperFurryAnimal 06-21-2005, 01:22 PM Yeah, but even before that he didn't ever reach beyond third round... Even though he has the potential. Especially on hc, ra and grass. RickDaStick 06-21-2005, 01:33 PM Though im not happy Ljubo lost but this gives him a chance to rest and i expect him to be the player he was earlier this year when the summer hardcourt seasons starts and do well at the Us open and then it will be his favorite surface the indoor carpet season where he will have his best results so its not that bad for Ljubo man. Jim Jones 06-21-2005, 01:59 PM The excuse was that Melzer was a Wimbledon junior champ :D Neely 06-21-2005, 02:23 PM yeah Jürgen!!!!!! :banana: :D :yeah: GoranIvanisevic546346 06-21-2005, 02:30 PM Ljubicic is choker, it si simple as that. goran_the_2nd 06-21-2005, 03:40 PM where is rducky now? :) anyway.. it's obvius now that he choke every time at GS. he was in junior finals here so noone can say that he dont like grass surface. it's just a mental block. Ančićka 06-21-2005, 04:21 PM :haha: croat123 06-21-2005, 04:22 PM ivan is a choker and he has mental problems when facing lefties. he himself has said that he hates playing them and that he feels he can't beet them. ys 06-21-2005, 04:55 PM And Llodra is doing well. Maybe he should get into Llodra's locker now? tinuviel_estel 06-21-2005, 06:36 PM And Llodra is doing well. Maybe he should get into Llodra's locker now? :lol::lol: so :sad: for Ljubo :sad: joeb_uk 06-21-2005, 06:37 PM The past few months he has really been struggling, i wonder if he burnt himself out :shrug: from the beginning of the year. croat123 06-21-2005, 06:38 PM he didn't burn himself out. he just hates clay and grass DanEd 06-21-2005, 07:58 PM he is not good on grass, THE USOPEN is the best grand slam for his game. RaVeR 06-21-2005, 08:36 PM pfff Ljubo :help::help::rolleyes: big mental problems :rolleyes: nkhera1 06-22-2005, 02:35 AM He is at his best on hardcourts. Its that simple. Doctor Dance 06-22-2005, 02:42 AM Ivan only plays well in smaller tournaments El Legenda 06-22-2005, 03:05 AM where is rducky now? :) anyway.. it's obvius now that he choke every time at GS. he was in junior finals here so noone can say that he dont like grass surface. it's just a mental block. I was at work...what happend to Karlovic :haha: You will be kissing chokers as$ when DC start again. just like you did vs USA Deivid23 06-22-2005, 05:52 AM It´s how hype works, early in the year Ljubicic was best player in the world after Federer, and now he´s a mug. Wait and see for threads claiming him as a top 5 material when summer hard courts and later indoor season come. Exodus 06-22-2005, 05:55 AM Give Ljubicic a break, you will be able to say the same thing to Nadal as well SuperFurryAnimal 06-22-2005, 10:05 AM Give Ljubicic a break, you will be able to say the same thing to Nadal as well Of course not... This thread is about why Ljubo cannot play well at Grand Slam tournaments... And you can't say Nadal can't play well at GS... At least there's one where he's played pretty well! goran_the_2nd 06-22-2005, 01:12 PM ah.. problem is not in the surface or form, he was in good form at AO, and he likes that surface also, but he managed to lost in first round there also :( I was at work...what happend to Karlovic :haha: You will be kissing chokers as$ when DC start again. just like you did vs USA well, karlovic was def. in five, and not easy, in three. :devil: no, i wont be kissing anyone's ass, as i dont have same problem as you do. and btw, i like ljubicic, and he's great player, but he choke every time at GS, that's a fact and even you (ljubo's ass kisser) cant denied that. also.. i hate to se any croatian player to lose, but i like to see when guy's like you have to eat their words. El Legenda 06-23-2005, 02:38 AM also.. i hate to se any croatian player to lose, but i like to see when guy's like you have to eat their words. and what words are those...i believe i was the one that said Ivan was probly gonna lose in 1st round. knowing his history with lefties. tangerine_dream 06-23-2005, 03:32 AM Jurgen :banana: Ivan clearly doesn't have what it takes to be a grand slam champion. He should stick to challengers. :) Kristen 06-23-2005, 03:42 AM Jurgen :banana: Ivan clearly doesn't have what it takes to be a grand slam champion. He should stick to challengers. :) :haha: So harsh...and in a funny way, so noone had better bad rep you! :mad: lol :wavey: | |
