[Sombrerero loco]

GL bemelmans, pospisil, roger-vasselin

[Sauletekis]

This tournament seems it's not even italian. Almost no italians in MD (at least without a WC) and played in Indoor Carpet.

[Kante]

Chvojka and Struff (ALT) out, Giannessi in.

WC's to Andreas Seppi and Simone Bolelli. Farrukh Dustow asked for another one.

As a matter of fact the vast majority of gardenesi don't even speak italian as their first language, mostly their dialetto ladino and german.

Seppi can't be playing closer to home than in this event, he is truly at home soil and hope he can take advantage of the WC and get the title. Tricky list.

[The Bulldog]

I love this tournament, now.

Wanted Ruben to win this now, but now Seppi would be better, I think, just because it would be nice for him to win a home event.

[Vinceremo]

Bolelli is so tactically stupid at times, took him like 1 full hour to realize that trying to just hit winners while standing several meters behind the baseline wasn't going to work could've saved quite a bit of energy. once he stepped in the court, De Voest was totally outclassed in the baseline exchanges.
