Thought id make the first thread for kei's new season. He starts it off in Brisbane

he plays cedrik marcel-stebe in the first round and if he wins that it will be either ryan harrison or marcos baghdatis and andy murray looms in the QF

1st round singles begins on Monday but Kei is playing doubles today.
Andy Murray (GBR)/Marcos Baghdatis (CYP) v Kei Nishikori (JPN)/Santiago Giraldo (COL) - interesting combinations!

They're last on the Pat Rafter Arena.

Hi all, sorry I wasn't around. :eek: Was holidaying in Okinawa until yesterday! :)

So Kei hasn't changed his habit of dropping the first set. :eek:
He took the second set 6-1 but got broken in the first service game in the third set as I started watching streaming.... :(

0-2*

Hi misty, the weather wasn't that good except for the day we departed. :(
But it was fun. Much warmer than Tokyo and they have very good food. :)

*1-4 :(
Kei can't read Stebe's shots well?? Maybe because he's a lefty?
