TFC dont freak out.
I know Ivan should probably have like 4 titles this year and like 45-10 record, but it could be worse, he could have folded vs Monfils last week. clay and grass have never been Ivan best surface, 5-4on clay and 8-2 on grass

with Blake and gonzo and Haas(monday to Fed) losing, hopefully Youzhny will lose to soon, ivan will again stay with 50-75 pts of top 10
and he will stay at #7 in the race.
Im not worried at all for rest of the season, this has been a pattern for past 2 years, Ivan will come back during 2nd half and probably pick up 200+race pts.

Well,I mosty agree with you on this,it's true Ivan has a very good grass season,look at the past,and he won a title now!
Yes,Ivan could easily have 10 titles in career now :(
Baggy in Zagreb (I watched that :sad:),and Youzhny in Rotterdam were winnable matches,but I wont complain about the past now.

I am actually very satisfied with the grass season,but only that loss yesterday made me very mad on Ivan.
Especially those wasted chances in the fourth...
But ok,that's a finished story now,I am looking forward for the HC and Indoor season,and I hope Ivan will have great second half as you said,and will play his best again on his favourite surface.
But he will play in Umag first :tape:

Ivan plays Wayne Odesnik...0-6 career on ATP, seems like he plays clay alot :lol: should be a winner in 2 for Ivan :)

edit: he is 2-7 now, won 2 matches in Washington vs Garcia and JMDP, lost to Isner :lol: big server, only won 12pts on return and 0bps. again, if Ivan is in HC form, 6-3 6-4 :)

That was an amazing doubles match :worship:
I really enjoy watching Ivan play, he's got a great game!! A lovely service motion :hearts:
And he's really kind too :) He signed autographs for a few people, and me too :inlove:
And so tall :eek:
I really look forward to seeing him play again!

Yeah, I see he's playing tomorrow - hopefully rain won't screw with things :eek: - and hope him and Gonzo don't pull out of doubles. Bhupathi & Vizner against those two will be awesome :drool: if they play like they did today.
Ivan really looks fluid on court, nice motion - he's nice to watch play. I'd never really realized that before :shrug:

I'm so sad for Ivan :bigcry:
He lost 3-6 6-4 6-7 to Odezonik...
:sad: :hug:

I hope he and Fernando don't pull out of doubles...

:eek: :eek: :eek:

What is wrong with him?
Yeah he waits HC season so he would start playing great again :rolleyes:
Losing to Pavel and Odesnik, both way out of the top100 :eek:
I really hope he can do something next week because this is terrible :bigcry:
