Re: Week 5: Kazan Russia (Entry List)
very good play from Marius, hard to really say anything about Zopp, he's been facing cripples  (or Heliovaara whom he leads 5-0 h2h) |

Re: Week 5: Kazan Russia (Entry List)
Quite surprised to find Copil doing it well on Kazan again (won title last year). Two years ago he reached the final in Cremona coming from Q but vanished on weak performances. The same in 2011 after winning in Kazan. Hopefully he may have a quite more stable performance along the year in 2012 
On the other hand I`m glad to see Zopp in the final and I hope that he can win the title tomorrow as I reckon he is a top 100 material.

Last year, after Kazan, Marius faced some injuries, but this year I think he can reach top 150 at least.

Zopp has had a very fortunate draw, hopefully he can play well in the final and bring home his first Challenger title.

Re: Week 5: Kazan Russia (Entry List)
Copil fails to serve out the 2nd set and gives the racquet a serious thump back on serve now.

Indeed, but one of the line umpires shouted "out".
Also, in the first tiebreak at 2-0 for Marius, Zopp sent a ball out, but the umpires hadn't any reaction. Marius got nervous at that moment and he lost the first set.

Re: Week 5: Kazan Russia (Winner : Jurgen Zopp)
Good win, his first challenger title. 100 points also are nice, he has lot to defent in Bergamo, it takes some pressure off .

Re: Week 5: Kazan Russia (Winner : Jurgen Zopp)
deserved one tbh, but there was this one controversial moment
Zopp delivering lately; will be interesting to see how he'll do in ATP quallies (unfortunately for him when his ranking encourages to try the clay will start...)
