Really? :D :worship::worship:

Alex :woohoo: :rocker2:

My first doubles final :D

btw, sorry for my suicidal Ferrer pick :unsure: :lol:

Congrats on your first doubles final. :) I still can't believe that we made it this far. I sucked in doubles since the French Open (2 wins and 8 losses :help: ), but it completely changed this week. You don't have to be sorry for your Ferrer pick. You were on a roll in the first few days. It all evens out.

Alex/Renato..congrats guys!!!:worship: :bounce::worship:

Thank you very much Lavi. :) :hug:

:eek: I will????

Oh my, the pressure!!! :unsure:
Good luck :) It would be nice :D

:eek: I will????

Oh my, the pressure!!! :unsure:
Oh Peta, you're so down to earth :p :smooch:

Skywalker was the only player I wouldn't have beaten :(

That's why he's no. 1 :p ;)

That's why he's no. 1 :p ;)

True, but Aiken might pass him here :p

I have matches on TV too, but Acasuso vs Wawrinka wasn't played on a shown court :smash: :p


I didnt watch it too, I mainly watch Rafael Nadal's matches + some of the players I never watched so I can know what is their game

True, but Aiken might pass him here :p
he can ?

Well, no camera in that court so just ppl who were in cincy could watch this match :p I think I knew all players, but wanted to see Querrey's tennis evolution.
Sometimes watching matches give me false impressions of my picks :tape:

he can ?

If he win and I stop my run here :)

Yeah , sometimes is better to just follow the results , many tt players doesnt follow matches live, but still do well

TT Stats Day6



Robredo 4 - 4 Ferrero
Roddick 6 - 2 Gonzalez

I watch as many matches as I can - doesn't help too much though.

A Skywalker vs Aiken final would be great :D
What do they need, Markus? :p

If he win and I stop my run here :)
he's so close :scared:?

A Skywalker vs Aiken final would be great :D
What do they need, Markus? :p

Aiken needs Robredo

AS needs Gonzalez and Ferrero or if only one of them wins, TB will decide :wavey:

Aiken needs Robredo

AS needs Gonzalez and Ferrero or if only one of them wins, TB will decide :wavey:

Yeah , I chose Gonzo , his game is really impressive these weeks + I would like him to win this match

So actually robredo vs ferrero match doesnt matter , the tie break match is more important, it will decide the winner

Aiken needs Robredo

AS needs Gonzalez and Ferrero or if only one of them wins, TB will decide :wavey:
Well, so I think final will be PaulHopkins vs Sheva :p

Hopefully JCF wins this one!

We have a new leader, but anything can still happen in New Haven. It's very close at the top and 6 players can still win the US Open Series.
