Kenneth has been one of my favourite players for a while now! And since he hasn't got a thread, I decide to make one for him.

This week, Kenneth is in Indianopolis as the 12th seed. He had a bye in R1 and now plays the talented Marcos Baghdatis

good luck!

Kenneth is about to start is match on court 4!

Good luck Kenneth

Baghdatis is a tough opponent who took a set of Federer at US Open last year but good luck Kenneth!

I just extract this from an article about Rusedski:

Rusedski has a 4-0 record against 32-year-old Carlsen and the pair are due on court in the early hours of Friday morning, British time

I hope that Carlsen can get his first win against Greg!

Kenneth in LA

I found the LA Draw and where Kenneth was on it:

(1) AGASSI, Andre USA vs Q
CARLSEN, Kenneth DEN vs. KIM, Kevin USA
(WC) GOLDSTEIN, Paul USA vs SAULNIER, Cyril FRA
SRICHAPHAN, Paradorn THA vs (6) ANCIC, Mario CRO

(4) HAAS, Tommy GER vs KARLOVIC, Ivo CRO
MALISSE, Xavier BEL vs LEE, Hyung-Taik KOR
CHELA, Juan Ignacio ARG vs BAGHDATIS, Marcos CYP
FISH, Mardy USA vs (5) DENT, Taylor USA

(8) RUSEDSKI, Greg GBR vs Q
MULLER, Gilles LUX vs SPADEA, Vincent USA
GINEPRI, Robby USA vs ARTHURS, Wayne AUS
(WC) BLAKE, James USA vs (3) KIEFER, Nicolas GER

(7) GROSJEAN, Sebastien FRA vs MELLO, Ricardo BRA
Q vs (WC) MAMIIT, Cecil USA

This draw is quite tough, Kim did well at Indianapolis this week but I think Kenneth can win and maybe beat Agassi

Yep, I run into at Halle last year. It was after all matches were played and I was about to go home. I was round the players entrance to the stadium (didn't expect to still see someone) and he suddenly came out there. I was so surprised I didn't speak to him much. Asked for his autograph and off he was. There was no one else around and I was kinda angry about myself afterwards :(

Nice photos :yeah: He dresses very nicely :)

I'm not really a 'fan'...meaning that I don't pay close attention to his results, however... being a fan of many other scandinavians, I like to hope he will always do well. Looking at these pictures, he kind of reminds me of Niclas Larsson - Swedish Wheelchair Tennis player. :wavey:

Kristen.
