Vamos Delpo!

Good luck tomorrow in kooyang!

I'm too torn now between him and Andy in QF,but at least they have other matches before that for my pleasure.

I think Delpo will easily reach the QFs, but his chances against Murray are quite slight. Anyway, I strongly hope for a great performance! VAMOS DELPO!

I really want to see how he does against Murray. He's gotten close to beating him in the past.

What is wrong with Juan he is behind Chardy 4 to 1 in the lst Set!

misst89 · 01-19-2013, 06:24 PM

I dont want to venture into the GM board. I know how everyone will just be making fun of him now. He just had a bad day but its just a little setback. It happens to all the big guys, they dip in form from time to time.

He'll bounce back, he should have played a proper tourny instead of an exho.

Don't worry, I'm in GM to defend him

Does anyone know what the trainer gave him twice yesterday? He wasn't injured, which is good of course, but he looked drained and out of energy from the start (maybe the heat, not sure), lacking power in his shots. I suppose the trainer gave him some energy supplements maybe. I'm not very worried about this loss, better have happened at AO than any other Slam as this is his worst shot at a Slam title (maybe along with Wimbledon), but would love to know what was going on. He played great in the first two rounds.

My full analysis of the match is here if anyone is interested. I'm sure Delpo will bounce back strong, we just need to keep supporting him

lucyfur · 01-19-2013, 08:14 PM

Maybe he was sick? Anyway I heard it was cool, maybe that caused the court too slow down?
Btw I didn't see the match, i only saw his 1st one.

Naudio Spanlatine · 01-20-2013, 02:12 AM

I am BEYOND pissed, HOW the living hell did he lose to Chardy i mean who loses to fucking Chardy.

I will NOT forgive him for that lost. But i will still cheer him on.

*sighs* The life of a sports fan.

I don't mind that he lost to Chardy, Chardy is a very good shot maker and has a massive serve, he's beaten Andy Roddick and Andy Murray before, but because of how poorly he played Delpo at Cincy it just surprised me.

It looked like just a pill, maybe to keep his energy up. Of course Delpo said he was fine in the presser, but I think it was one of those days where he felt slow. I mean it is comforting that he was able to push it to 5 knowing how much Chardy outplayed him. Few changes here and there, and he could have taken it.

Thank god for you there. I feel like its us against everyone else sometimes.

Prodigy. · 01-20-2013, 06:26 PM

DelPo will come back stronger

Mae · 01-20-2013, 10:51 PM

I also thought he looked ill right from the start of the Match, but I didn't see him taking any pills. So I have no idea what that was about maybe stomach trouble? These tennis players with all the traveling they have to do I don't know how they manage to stay as well as they do!

misst89 · 02-09-2013, 03:23 PM

anyone going to rotterdam?

cobalt60 · 02-09-2013, 06:08 PM

Ask the mod "Carlita"- she might be. There was a time when many posters went but I think they don't post or rarely post on MTF anymore.
