i guess i'm qualified to open this thread

now confirmed: arnaud is on the entry list in melbourne

warm up tournaments: to be determined, which qualifying he'll play in.

Many protected ranking in the list you have to be 100 to enter directly. For his schedule nobody pulled out from Doha for the moment.

soulage · 12-20-2008, 04:39 PM

He goes in Doha according his interview today but he's still on alternates list for the moment so if nothing change no Brisbane. You can hear him here

Good luck to Arno!

First I added qualies, but I read the first post a little too quick

soulage · 01-09-2009, 10:00 AM

He's in the draw of Sydney's qualies. He should face Luczak first round but maybe some changes later because SE in main list hasn't been cleared. http://www.atpworldtour.com/en/commo...009/338/QS.pdf

i've just found out too... yeah anything can happen, players seem to be particularly 'mobile' the week before the aus open, and some may pull out any minute...

i'd better get ready, tomorrow will be a long day... keep me posted of any news, will ya please?

soulage · 01-09-2009, 10:37 AM

I hope your heart is not broken because he plays an Aussie

The oop is out: second match on court 1 maybe 10:30 local time and during the night for us

Luczak is just come back on tour but with jet lag and the warm it could be tough for Arnaud especially against a motivated Aussie but if he plays as well as against Roddick he can do it. Have a nice day tomorrow

Via · 01-09-2009, 10:41 AM

it is not warm at all right now in sydney. why, wasn't doha warm enough?

thanks... i wear a frenchie hat or even carry your flag to our tournaments, don't you know?

Marine · 01-09-2009, 07:01 PM

Via uses to be hated in these tournaments, when she supports frenchies vs aussies, I don't think she cares about his countrymen.

Kezzi · 01-09-2009, 08:28 PM

I'm confused with the calender, ofcourse it's Sydney first. I guess I am a week ahead of everyone on my own clock

I just want the AO to start, finally some tennis on tv again

So good luck Arno in qualies

Have a nice day Via!
And I heard that in Marseille there was snow (just like in NL) so I think Sydney will always be warmer

soulage · 01-09-2009, 11:00 PM

The match had just begin and Arnaud has already been broken with a really poor 1st serve

I will see the final score tomorrow now !

Hangdog · 01-10-2009, 03:53 AM

And you didn't miss a thing, Arnaud lost 6-2 6-4.

I guess the day hasn't been as long and exciting as it could be... Via

Maybe there is still a chance that Arnaud will play in doubles? The draw shoud be out later today.

Via · 01-10-2009, 05:57 AM

it was just a poor, poor match. arnaud made peter luczak look like andy roddick today

i never knew it was so hard to return peter's serves.

i don't know how jet-lagged he was, but he must be different player from doha, or he just wasn't trying.

i asked the guy sitting with bruno, if arnaud is playing doubles... he asked bruno for me, and bruno uttered a lot of stuff lol basically it's a no. they may be staying on for two days... something like that.
