Another first round lost at an Slam don't no what going on with Orlando, his form seem to have drop an bit since winning the double at Youth Olympic Games or maybe he just losing interest in playing junior event IDK, but he going have to step it up soon, he have lot of point to defend this clay season.

I'm starting to see a pattern. He's a slow starter and needs matches to bring his A level.. If he survives the early rounds he'll be dangerous late in the tournaments. Overall I'm not impressed by his results since the Youth Olympic Games. I hope he can find some form in Europe soon.
