Rafa does it every year.

What will give it to David this year?

to get in to Olympic Games 2012 David needs to be on higher position than Chela & Berlocq,
it means he needs 150 points in French Open?

[Stephan]

They have different tasks

Rafa - to win FO Rolland Garros, again be close to Nr1
Del Ponny - to get in to Top 8 (Tennis Masters Cup Tournament)
David - try to get in to Olympics...

Draw is out:

David will play vs. Ungur in Round 1 of Roland Garros 2012

[Stephan]

Yes, Ungur Adrian (Romania, Current Ranking 91) in R1,
and Roger Federer in Round 2 (if David will win in R1)

[Stephan]

[Stephan]

A. Roddick will be in R3 if David can overplay Federer

[nalbyfan]

Bad draw one more time, I would be thrilled if he beat the arrogant Rolex poseur but I don't really think he will...I'll be happy if he can take one set

[Björki]

[Stephan]

David has found solution vs. Federer: he already lost in R1 to Ungur (ranking 91)
A. Ungur 6 5 6 7
D. Nalbandian 3 7 4 5


I did not watch that match: lucky me...



Goodbye Grand Slam, goodbye Olympics (he will loose also in R1), goodbye David 2012...

[Stephan]

David is not alone: "old" N. Davydenko, L. Hewitt... also are out in R1...
time to retire...guys

[nalbyfan]

David is qualified for OG but he'll probably lose in 1st round so it's useless to go to London to show such a bad level of game
If he can't even beat a guy like Ungur, he has nothing to do in OG, especially to play for Argentina....poor Argies !!! They deserve a better embassador than david
