Re: Buckle down and clench your teeth - USO 2012
Not a brutal draw, for a change. Still, won't be easy, Delpo especially.
Having Ferrer in the SF is easier than Murray, for sure, but he will be just as tiresome to beat.

Agreed but Delpo is having recurring wrist problems so he might not even make it to the Quarters.

Re: Buckle down and clench your teeth - USO 2012
Nole does not like easy draws  And I am not sure Ferrer will make SF. |

Re: Buckle down and clench your teeth - USO 2012
His draw is looking quite good  Of course Delpo can be dangerous, but apart from that I obviously prefer having Ferrer to Murray in semis.

Re: Buckle down and clench your teeth - USO 2012
Sorry, that draw in this thread was form my tweet. I mixed up some things.
This is the actual draw: 1Lorenzi, 2Q/Dutra Silva, 3Benneteau, 4Wawa/Dolgo, QFDelpo, SFTipsy/Ferru, FFed/Andy.

Re: Buckle down and clench your teeth - USO 2012
Obviously nothing is taken for granted (except Lorenzi, who I should be safe in saying is unjinxable), but pretty hilarious draw on paper

Dream of a draw, very doable. I know Delpo can be dangerous (he's the only one to win USO other than the Magnificent 3), but Nole loves these courts and he will be very motivated. For once Fed has a tough draw and Nole doesn't have Murray in his half. 
Of course a relatively easy draw doesn't guarantee anything. |

But WE like easy draws  I am sure if he reaches the SF he will be glad to face Ferrer instead of Murray !

Re: Buckle down and clench your teeth - USO 2012
SF: Ferrer, not Murray
QF: Del Potro, not Tsonga, Tipsy, Berdych
R4: Dolgo, not Gasquet, Raonic, Simon
R3: Benneteau, not Verdasco, Seppi, Querrey, Youzhny, Troicki, Lopez, Chardy
Prefer Ferrer to Murray / Dolgo to Raonic / Benneteau to Seppi or Querrey
But I don't think it's an easy draw. Is this SF effect? (Did they do this to disprove conspiracy theories?  ) Or this looks easier than it actually is because of all the tough draws that he's gotten this year? Anyway like you guys said, nothing is guaranteed. One match at a time! |

Re: Buckle down and clench your teeth - USO 2012
Nole got a really good draw. Happy that he'll only have to face Mugray or Fed
But I hope he faces Fed, Mugray seems to be playing well lately
