Don't hate Del Potro, he did what he had to do. And they were nice hugging at the net.

Re: 2009 Piccies Thread!!!
I haven't been able to see the videos yet... 
I think it's a good thing he ended his career with Del Potro,cause he always expressed his appreciation towards Marat.
Marat,so...see you soon,right?

Marat's teary eyes when watching the screen during the ceremony were killing me, as well as the hugging piccies with JMDP.

Re: 2009 Piccies Thread!!!
This is the first time I've seen Marat actually cuddle his opponent at the net with any emotion, it was just really nice, it looked comforting, I know he's a big tough guy and stuff but he was pretty emotional watching himself over the years on the big screen, it looked like he felt like I did out there today. Happy, sad and relieved.

So well put, Burrow. The fact that Marat went back for seconds (see below, Delpo looking v pleased with himself) showed how much he felt the bittersweetness of the occasion. This was certainly the most lingering net hug I've seen him do, perhaps inevitable given the occasion. Imagine if his opponent had been Roger!
The Wimby 2008 net hug with Djokovic was awkward for sure. Nole hesitated a bit which made Marat look overly keen in comparison! It's just the photos made it look more intimate than it really was.
"OK, Juan, let's get this manly display of affection over with ..."

Re: 2009 Piccies Thread!!!
Thanks for all the pics!
Awww, Juan Martin was so cute!
How long will it be before those "affectionate" pics end up in the GM funny photos thread?

JMDP!  He even signed Marat's name on the camera, what an understanding soul he is.
Maybe the pics are in that thread already? This one spread like wildfire across the internet last year.
