Good results to wake up to!

Well done Paulo. Now to give Novak a good match please.

Vamos Paulo/Marat in the doubles too (I wonder if they'll lose in a match TB

Good match, Paulo!

Please, at least, keep it close!

tufani · 03-29-2009, 11:52 PM

The match will start shortly. Good luck, Paulo!!

PinkFeatherBoa · 03-29-2009, 11:56 PM

Finally Paulo time. 3/3 Frenchies won so far, Paulo do your job!

Bonne chance, I just hope for some good form at last.

tufani · 03-30-2009, 12:27 AM

After 2 service games played only 35% first serves in. 3 BPs saved already.

Is it me, or he looks a bit tired right from the start of the match?

tufani · 03-30-2009, 12:38 AM

Paulo missed 2 BPs in fourth game and then got broken straight away. He serves really poorly so far, 4 doubles in 3 games.

Come on, Paulo!!

tufani · 03-30-2009, 12:40 AM

A lot of shots are missed by few inches, really frustrating.

PinkFeatherBoa · 03-30-2009, 01:00 AM

He looked tired to me as well, Olga. He did have a long wait to start (over 3 hours after expected time).

Yep, really a match of close misses. His serve need

though. At least his BH is looking better.

OMG, rain suddenly.

tufani · 03-30-2009, 01:02 AM

Another BP opportunity missed at 4-5 - he had a great chance in that rally, Nole got a bit lucky with the net cord. So the first set goes to Djokovic.

I hope Paulo at least keeps up this level of play in the second set. And does something with the serve

It's 30-0 on Paulo's game when the rain interrupts the match.

tufani · 03-30-2009, 01:06 AM

Jenny! I had an impression that he walked on the court right after having had a shower!

It seems that rain won't stop shortly.
