actually no I take it back these last few games have been even more dire. What the heck was this. Disgraceful.

Ouch, scoreline .

Didn't watch, wasn't surprised that he lost, shocked by the scoreline, glad the season is over.

Whatever is going on with you Gilles, please sort it out over the off season. Other than that, have a good rest in the off season. Cheers.

Gilles! 6-4 6-0. Poor end to the season

I was there. I so wished for a 1 to show up in the second set, but Gilles was out of luck. Lots of errors and just when a line judge called the ball out at 40-30 for 5-0, Monaco challenges and it's in... Even the help of line judges didn't work today, it was horrible to watch. My sister (not a Gilou fan) even asked me "how does he manage to stay in the top 20 with a game like this?" I drag her to Gilou and then she gets to watch this I wonder if I manage to drag her to one of his matches ever again.

when I see Forget at matches, I think he is there because of the davis cup team. I hope sooooo much that next year they will be in the final and win.

I didn't know at all that Gillou plays interclubs too. I hope he'll get enought time to be with his family and rest.
I wonder what they mean by changing his play. I think I've read this somewhere..

thank you for your wish! last year I wrote about Roland Garros, my teacher liked it, and I hope he will like this-year-one too.

Its so funny I am not the only one to incorporate tennis into regular schoolwork. In high school my two subjects to choose from for my German oral exam were my favorite thing to watch on tv or my favorite sport. I had to take it during Wimbledon, so guess what I talked about? And for Dutch everyone needed to choose a topic for an elucidation (my dictionary tells me this, it's similar to pleading in court). I chose the topic of smaller vs bigger tennis rackets, cause I read a little piece in the newspaper that morning about McEnroe commenting on bigger rackets making tennis easier for hard hitters. My teacher gave me a funny look, but was curious to find out what I'd make of it. In the end I got the highest grade of my class

Ok, on topic again. I don't think interclubs interfere very much with the off season. From what I read and understood it's only in weekends and if it's similar to the German version, it's more like an exho for players like Gilles. I've visited this kind of competition in Germany and everyone is always very relaxed. Ok, they are bummed when they lose, but the feeling is gone a lot sooner than in regular matches.
Who wants to change his play?

I moved this conversation here from the video thread, I didn't know where else to put it, but the video thread is for videos.

Thanks for the news.
Now I want to go, this area is beautiful and having Gilou there makes it even better.

[Gillouthe best]

Well, he is going to have a lot of events to play in, as he has played Interclubs, from 13-15th. in Caen and an exho with Lopez, Ferrer, Almagro, Robredo and Raonic in Bilbao(Spain).Here is the link: http://www.masterstenisbilbao.es/art...les-simon.html

congratulations

I don't know exactly who. I don't find where I've read it, I think here in one of the threads, but I don't find.
I will look for it.
