I just checked his results on the ATP site. His previous best win was over a world #128. Way to go, PLD!!!

Apparently Harrison has been sick, but he was sick yesterday and Hanescu couldn't beat him, so it is to PLD's credit.

Welcome, Bassoon (do you play one?)

Absolutely to his credit. I'll be pulling for him tomorrow against Hasse. And yes, I do play (the bassoon, not tennis!)

Congrats to him! Very happy he was able to take this opportunity and get his first ATP win.

Welcome bassoon

It was quite a while back but Duclos beat Lopez (#64 then) in first round of Rogers Cup qualies in '07. I'm pretty sure that was his best win to date.

I predict a quarterfinal finish for PLD here. I expect him to get his ranking up with this result. way to go PLD!

I predict a championship next week too, at the US Open.

Impressed none the less today with Duclos.

Robin is actually serving better today than he did in his demolition of James Blake. This is somewhat normal for Robin.

misty1 · 08-24-2011, 08:55 PM

did he really?

i dont know i didnt follow that match..at one point his first serve at one point was down to 24%

also at some point there was a long pause in the score..maybe one of them is injured?

i m just have never seen robin's serve so low and i know thats a weapon for him

misty1 · 08-24-2011, 08:56 PM

robin broke for 6-5 and will serve for the match

0-15

0-30

15-30

30-30

deuce(missed what happened)

***Snowwy*** · 08-24-2011, 08:58 PM

PLD just had a BP to stay in the match, lost it though.

***Snowwy*** · 08-24-2011, 08:59 PM

It went, 30-40, 40-40 (2nd serve), A-40 (2nd serve). 7-5.

misty1 · 08-24-2011, 09:00 PM

hasse wins 6-4, 7-5

Awesome win by pld, Thats twice where he takes advantage of very fortunate LL spots. Seems like hes adopted a very more agressive playing style lately, hes been playing real well lately hopefully he can continue to bring this level.
