Roko Karanusic cheering thread
Is it possible that there's no cheering thread for Roko?!? Well, if that's the case, then I'm starting one!
After qualifying for the 2008 AO and then reaching the QF of the Heilbronn challenger (he beat Berrer in the second round), he will reach a new career-high ranking when the January 28 rankings come out. Go, Roko!!!

Re: Roko Karanusic cheering thread
He struggled against Zib, I thought he might have a problem with Peya
This win is impressive
Good luck in QF

Re: Roko Karanusic cheering thread
Having reached the QF at Belgrade, Roko might reach a new career-high ranking next week (for sure if he reaches the SF). He doesn't have many points to defend over the next 2-3 months, so it's very possible that he'll break into the top 100 for the first time.
If that happens, and since Ancic will probably be back in the top 100 soon (if he remains healthy). there would be five Croats in the top 100. That would be impressive! I believe the record is four, which happened recently when Ljubicic, Karlovic, Cilic and Ancic were all among the top 100 at the same time.

Re: Roko Karanusic cheering thread
 Roko is in the semifinal
Bozoljac retired, and Roko will play against another Serb Viktor Troicki

Re: Roko Karanusic cheering thread
Now that he's in the SF, Roko is guaranteed to have a new career-high ranking, somewhere around 110-115. If he wins his next match, he'll move up to around 105. What's even better, he doesn't have many points to defend through the end of May (only 66).

Re: Roko Karanusic cheering thread
Roko lost only 1 set at this event, and shamefully he lost one to Tomas Zib  . |
