Well, we didn't have one yet as Olga mentioned in the chat thread and since I've never started one before I wanted to test my luck. :p

OK, here's Paulo's draw for Indian Wells:

Paulo is playing tomorrow (Sat), he's 2nd on Court 4 after a WTA match.

COURT 4 start 11:00 am
[22] A Szavay (HUN) vs E Gallovits (ROU) - WTA
[32] P Mathieu (FRA) vs P Starace (ITA) - ATP

Hope he can win this one, since next round (potentially) against Murray will be televised for sure.

Good luck Paulo, Starace on hard really should be beatable for him.

Paulo won finally!!! :woohoo: 6-4 6-7 (11 :eek:) 6-4

Murray next. :unsure:

I'd like to think he could beat Murray but he really seemed to struggle today. However it was his 1st match back in a while, so maybe he'll play better in a couple of days. Also what I saw of Murray today really didn't impress me... I really hope Paulo can play a good match against him!

I'd like to think he could beat Murray.
I know that Murray is 2-0 against Paolo, but I somehow have the feeling that the match-up wouldn't be so bad for him and that he has a serious chance against a recovering Murray.

Oh, Paulo almosts caused a heart attack! :eek: All those missed MP's in the second set tie-break... Leaves me wondering how he managed to win the third set with only 39% first serve in and having been a break down! Great win after the break! :bigclap:



Murray didn't impress me either, too many UE's, which is unusual for him. So hopefully Paulo will get his chances. Allez! :bounce:

Schedule's out and Paulo and Murray are the 1st match on Stadium 1 (11am PDT).
I hope I get home in time, C'mon Paulo.

Oh and Paulo also has a surprise doubles match with Marat tomorrow (replacing Tsonga/Ancic) against Melo/Sa. This match is 4th up on Court 6. :lol: They'll get some early practise before their Miami doubles match! Vamos guys!
 
#20 ·
What a nice surprise! :hearts:

I hope Paulo stays focused on his singles match. (Although it might be difficult since he has Marat to look forward to in the afternoon :lol:)


Vamos all the way! :rocker2:

Whoa, Marat and Paulo :rocker2: If only looks could win a tennis match, these two would kill the Bryans! :p

Good match, Paulo! I actually would have preferred him to play Gulbis :lol:
