Kiwi lost because he made more or less stupid mistakes but not because Robredo was better! That's what should make him confident now

I could watch from 2-1 in the 2nd set and Kiwi played really well and was an equal competitor. He had three break points (two in a row and one after deuce) in the 11th game, but couldn't convert them

In the next game he was down 0-40 and ended the match with a double fault

The first set tiebreak looks closer than it was because the commentator mentioned that Robredo has had a 6-1 lead in it already.

yes thats true he came back from 1:6 to 5:6 and had 2 services and made a easy volley error

good luck Kiwi!

[Neely]

I can't find his match on the scoreboard anymore, but in the live thread I read that the 4-3 lead a break.

I hope he was already up 40-0 in his next game as well

[Yappa]

I think the score was 4*:3, 30:15.
Hopefully he won't have to rely on PHM's choking skills and win it easily.

[Radical]

yeah Kiwi great win!

[Neely]

Very cool, the score looks rather easy. Stats are looking good as well!
I'm glad that he was able to finish it

[zveeen]

congrats Kiwi! keep going!
