[EnriqueIG8]

You probably mean their encounter in the SF at the Olympic Games 2000 where Tommy won in 2 sets. Roger was 18 at that time.

I probably meant their encounter at Australian Open 2002 It was when Tommy won 8-6 in the fifth, and I guess Roger weared the outfit in my avatar right? That was the one

I understand what you mean I have to say I cried after that match as I was so happy for him that he finally got this trophy

Well no tears here, but almost. I was so happy. And when the Cantique Suisse (Swiss Anthem) came and you saw him and his tears it was enchanting to me. Forever in my heart that moment.

And Andy is still probably one of Roger's biggest fans

Yes that's what I like about Andy too. He once said. " I'd love to hate him, but he's such a damn nice guy "

We have the #1 in active and retired players in common

See, we're not that different after all. How great was the moment when Guga draw the heart in the RG clay. And his goodbye match against PHM.

I can't really ask for anything more personally. I love my job and am able to do what I like to do in my free time. The only wish I have is health for myself and the people who are important to me

I'd wish that to for you aswell as my own environment. We'll be good in the next year, Doris

Thanks for your kind words

Don't worry about it. Always kind words and praise for you.

Karin was in Zürich with me this week at the Roger-Rafa exho

You can find her on her livejournal:

http://solarfallsrealm.livejournal.com/

I'll go and read her livejournal when I have the time on my hands.
She's such a nice person too. Say Hi to her from me when you see her next time IRL.

[EnriqueIG8]

]Why do you like Roland Garros the most of the Grand Slam tournaments?

Have you ever been to Rotterdam? I was at the tournament earlier this year with Karin because we wanted to see Rafa but unfortunately he didn't play.

I don't know, probably because of the big clay battles. The most pleasant time of the year too. And Wimbledon is too traditional for me.
Australian Open is great too but a difficult time schedule for us in Europe, and US Open is too 'American' in my opinion.

Yes actually I have been to Rotterdam this year on Friday Night session. Watched Youzhny battle Monfils for 3 hrs, that was the only match I saw because Flo Mayer withdrew against Nole I Know and he won't come this year too. Well we have to do with Nole and Muzza which isn't bad also.

I think he and us fans will never forget this match Who knows what a victory in a best of 5 match against Rafa would have meant for his selfconfidence for other matches against him?

Yes I know. He could have defeated him in that one. Maybe another 1 or 2 RG's on his palmares wouldn't be that bad. Or his crushing loss at Wimby wouldn't have happened. Well we never know

This loss will always hurt

I didn't knew that you are a fan of him. When did you discover his music?

It must have been tough for you when he died. How did you found out about it?

Well I'm not his biggest fan but I admire him so much. I've watch the childhood movie and his interview with that English Pakistani. That was so difficult to watch, watching Michael cry during the interview. The guy has experienced so much, more bad things than good things but I hope he kinda enjoyed his life when he was doing what he loved most, performing on stage for his fans.

I think I discovered his music in the last year of elementary school when I was 11.

I told my mom immediately. I didn't cry or anything but I was pretty shocked. Of course he was in poor health but I didn't expect him to pass away so soon. And I found out because somebody popped up an MSN Name : The King of Pop is Dead. RIP

There's probably a lot which you would like to tell your dad if you would have the chance, right?

Yes, a lot to talk about. He didn't see me graduate, get my drivers license and much more. So much has happened in these last 6 years.
We probably wouldn't have eaten a lot during that dinner.

Good luck for it

What are you studying? You might have already told it in the Federer forum but I don't remember it now

Thank you Doris

I'm studying Management & Tourism, so I'm gonna get my management certificate to open my own store/restaurant anything else too.

Which losses can we blame on you?

I don't know at the moment which threads you have opened which didn't turned out the way we wanted

I think I've opened up the Paris Masters thread in 2009 in which he lost immediately to Benneteau

I suppose my threads only work for the big work aka GS's

Maybe we should make a contest about who should start the AO thread


Thanks for taking time to answer the questions Javier

Haha maybe we should. We'll throw that in the Fed forum on the 2nd of January, deal?

Of course the pleasure was all mine. Thanks for asking me these questions and taking the effort to read my answers as well!

Thanks for the answers, I think I know you a little bit better now.

Haha No strange crush, but indeed I do like Enrique Iglesias's music a lot.
I've been his concert twice, so yeah. I'm not a fan of his late 'dance' music stuff but I love his old albums.

Vivir, Quizas, Escape and Enrique are really good albums.
I don't like Julio though

I think you deserve a thread like this yourself, Nina

Classy name for a classy woman. My mom is a darling

No doubt...I would put it on my iPod.

Thanks for the answer

[EnriqueIG8]

Thanks for the questions Nat, hope you will enjoy reading the answers.

1. If you were a flower, what would it be?

Hyacinth(us) probably. Don't know why but it smells really good, just like me

2. Do you think spanking children should be allowed?

Haha spanking in a discipline way, yes. Spanking in a sexual way, a big no-no.

3. Are you a religious person? Why/ Why not?

I don't see myself as an atheist. I consider myself Catholic but not an extreme one. I believe there is something more in the world but the whole hell thing, doing everything by the bible that's what I don't believe.

4. Cats or dogs?

I don't like cats at all. Dogs over cats anytime, anyday, anywhere.

Say Hi to my dog, Kyra.



How can you not love that.

5. 5 MTF posters you'd take to a desert island

Since I'm a guy and I probably have my needs on that Island I have to go with 5 women.

1^ Nole Fan
2^ Nathaliia
3^ Tulipe
4^ Gretchen.

5^ Clay Death, to have some conversations with and battle with from time to time to keep myself sharp and strong.

6. Favourite subject at school / less favourite

Like; Geography. I like everything about other cultures, countries and the information about our planet.

Dislike; Math. I'm not bad it I just don't like working with numbers all day.

7. What are your perfect sleeping hours?

Probably from 3AM till 11AM. I'm not a morning person, don't have a big morning mood but I like to be awake till late and sleep till late .

8. Views on politics?

I don't vote everytime I get the chance but I would say my view on politics is social liberal.

9. Which movie/ novel hero do you resemble?

Superman. I can do anything, rescue you, look amazing in spandex and like Superman I have 1 weakness, not kryptonite but women

What does make you laugh the most?

Normally plain jokes wouldn't cut the mustard with me. I prefer stories from friends of me, or other people. You know stories that happened to them in real time.

http://www.theage.com.au/news/tennis...?page=fullpage

Thanks for the article mate. I'm gonna read it for sure. He did lose 8-6 in that match in the fifth, right?

Did you like the shirt from my avatar, too?
We're you a Fed fan in that time already

Originally Posted by Corey Feldman

You're right. It was the 5 setter against Nalbandian (in which he lost too) when he wore this. I remember he had a yellow shirt too that year, right?

[Corey Feldman]

yeah he wore that t-shirt and the yellow all of that 2003 season, not just at AO

i was a fan of Fed back then yes, but i was more for Henman at that time. both them lost horribly in R16 at that 2002 AO... Fed as you know to Haas (had mp's typically) and Henman blasted out by Bjorkman

[Nathaliia]

Thanks for the answers and your dog is fabulous
