I was hoping this video would still be up. It's so sweet. :)
He was playing at a Polish Challenger in 2005.

JBdV translated it: "I would like to thank all the Polish people who cheered for me, and all the pretty girls who came to see me play"

:lol: I love the fact cohka didn't understand what he said and had to come to MTF to get the compliment!

In the category "mini-videos", you also have another classic when he's asked for an ATP report in Hamburg who will win the 2006 World Cup:

(Or the longer version to appreciate better his refreshing answer in the middle of all the boring predictions - well, apart Murray who is hilarious):

Merci!
I'd love to see again the highlights of his match against Gaudio in Hamburg 2006, btw. I uploaded the highlights of the match on MTF at the time, but I don't have it anymore and Youtube and Dailymotion deleted my videos, unfortunately.

There still are videos of the shorts sequence on Youtube, but the deleted highlights video was also showing the rest of the match. And it isn't available anymore on ATPmastersseries.tv either.
Gilles meant at the time it was the best match he had ever played.

The highlights video is from AMS.tv, so it's just a few points (and I don't always get their points selection), not the whole TB. But at least you can see the MP if you've missed it.

If you haven't seen the 3rd set, I'll try to convert the file or edit out some parts so it isn't too big. I'll take a look at it later.

Of course I'm thrilled by Simon's victory, I'm not a Tsonga fan, but I feel sorry for Jo-Wilfried, he seems so lost now..

(Truc, j'avais fait une recherche sur youtube et j'avais pas vu la vid, donc merci d'avoir poster le lien, il aurait troop pu mener 5-0 en plus :lol: et il se fait mené 2-3)

Like last time, I recorded the stream, btw, if anybody missed the match and is interested.
(But like last time, I can't compress it or edit it without having a synchronization problem :shrug: , so it's a 500 MB file).

Gilles tearing his hair out after having missed his 3 rebreak chances in the last game:

I've spent most of the day catching up with all the stuff on this thread and I'm still laughing at this

GILLESEX NOT HAPPY. GILLESEX RIP HAIR. VERY MAD.
:haha::haha::haha: brilliant!

I've put together a wee web page with stuff I've found here and elsewhere - is it my imagination or does he not have his own official site? :confused:

My (very basic) page is here if anyone fancies a look - Truc I've linked to a few of your videos, and your blog - how would you like credited? :)

I've never seen a video with highlights of his matches in Marseille, I only know the report on Dailymotion with his interview after his win. There aren't that many videos with him on Youtube.
I have the final on DVD, if you wanted to check something in particular.

I ripped my DVD of the Marseille final and tried a new filesharing service, which seemed amazing because it uploaded the big file in no time, but I hadn't realized it's more a Youtube service, you can't download it now. :-/
Here's the link I got:
http://www.eatlime.com/play_093576B0-FE71-48F3-1032-0288766D0081 (the match probably isn't complete because my browser crashed during the upload)

I was looking for a service like Megaupload. The file has 973 Mo, where can I upload it with a decent upload/download speed?
(The ripped file has "hiccups" anyway, maybe you can take a look at the first 10 minutes and tell me if you're interested in the big file before I upload it somewhere else. The pic quality of the MPEG4 file is a bit better, of course, but it's "sputtering" too at times.)
