Re: Richie In The States- 2 Masters 1000. Indian Wells (11-03-2010)
I don't really know where to post this as there isn't a DC thread, but Forget called Richard as the 5th player in next week-end tie against Germany. I for myself am delighted, as I'll finally get to see him in flesh I might even catch a few practices But Forget never ceases to amaze me with his random out of the blue decision :lol:
Re: Richie In The States- 2 Masters 1000. Indian Wells (11-03-2010)
just heard Richard has been chosen to be on the Davis cup team for this first round
Good luck , Richard !
and then back on the plane to IW / Miami
I was wondering - had he not played DC - if he would have just gone straight from Mexico to California
but looks like a stop in France is in order
fear not , Missie and I will keep a close eye on Richard in IW
not that he can get in nearly as much trouble there as one can in Miami
a bit of golf maybe - and a few good restaurants - but not too much in the way of night life in the Cali Desert
( well , compared to South Beach , anyway )

Well,if the main reason for him losing the third set against Almagro despite holding a 4-0 lead, is fatigue or exhaustion, then he MIGHT have to improve drastically on his physical fitness as the FRENCH OPEN is very demanding in terms of fitness and being pretty lethargic after a 3 setter does not complement well with the fact that most of his GRAND SLAM matches has gone down the wire or even a 5 setter....Or maybe this is just a side effect from his new training regime from coach , Gabriel Markus? We will soon find it out and good luck in DC......GO GASQUET.......
:fiery::fiery::fiery: Forget obviously out to destroy Ricahrd. Why does he have to call him now??????? Why doesn't he let him do his build-up quietly with Gabriel away from the attention? Instead he forces him to interrupt everything for DC!

You're a love Immzb, thank you very much. I'll just need to wrestle the tv remote control from my husband and kids now as they don't like tennis! :lol: actually, I've just realised I'll be at work, no one had better touch my Sky plus!

I like Indian wells better than Miami but I don't like either of them much. I can't wait until the European clay court season starts. It's all my favourite, monte carlo is fab.

Not easy to go from outdoors clay courts to indoors on very fast surface.. A lot of people say Richard always plays well in practice and beats top players often. Still, encouraging practice result. I kinda hope they would put him for one of the singles matches...
