What did Papa Gulbis do then?

I think I remember something about a coffee-related incident at the tournament restaurant... With a waiter... Or maybe it was with an umpire?  I don't think it was a big deal, and I think that's not the main reason Ernests was given a WC, Bresnik probably is.

Re: Mission Possible: Getting Back to the Top 100
If anyone´s interested and knows German here is a relatively new article about that story.. For those who don´t know german.. The article says that Ainars "threw" hot coffee on a waiter in the players lounge, because he was angry.. In some artciles it even says that Ainars was angry because he did not get any soup at 11.. But to be honest: If it really was like that (and Ainars fault), why should they give him the Wc now??
Doesn´t matter anyway.. Ernests gets hsi chance to receive some important points

Re: Mission Possible: Getting Back to the Top 100
Ernests is playing last match on center court tomorrow. He should beat Devvarman if he's healthy again, Devvarman got in on protected ranking and hasn't been playing well lately.

Re: Mission Possible: Getting Back to the Top 100
Does anyone know if there will be livestream? (not that any have been working well for me lately so I don't know why I bother asking)

Re: Mission Possible: Getting Back to the Top 100
Yes there is a livestream. Tennistv.com is covering it so the other streams should have good quality. You have 3 choices at http://www.lshunter.tv/tennis-live-streaming-video.html.

Re: Mission Possible: Getting Back to the Top 100
Is it a full moon by any chance? If I remember correctly Ernests said he does better with a full moon out!
