Qualified defeating David Rice 62 64. I think Christian needs to work on his forehand. There were too many times where his forehand landed short.

Christian got the last spot in the AOWC Playoff, kinda a surprise. Don't think he will win, but hopefully it will be a good experience.

Massively improved Christian Harrison: Really liked what I saw today during his practice with Tommy Haas. What a difference the last 6 months have made, taller, stronger, better. Big Up Side to move up the rankings. Think will see some positive results from the young Harrison in the coming year.

Christian will play Tim Smyczek tomorrow in the AO Wildcard Playoffs. His match is on center court, so it will likely be streamed. Edit: meant to say Friday.

Well, Tim's in amazing form... Honestly Ryan probably would have lost to him as well if they played, so it's all good.

I find Christian a true pleasure to watch, I really hope he moves up the ranking and gets to play some bigger tournaments soon!

Benji, nice to hear from you again Where were you when I needed you to curse at Williams (since I don't have the heart to do it)?

Ryan Harrison

Harrison vs. Harrison timed basketball fitness challenge after a couple of sets on court this afternoon. If you can't tell by the look on my face, I am tired.
