What was Gaston thinking? Take a look
http://artsweb.uwaterloo.ca/~jdu/fil...%20tweener.wmv He had an easy forehand winner but decides he wants to do something special and really screws it up. This was in the 2nd set while he was only a break behind.

Re: What was Gaston thinking? Take a look
I'm telling you, Andre said later it was stupid to make that shot in such situation, and Gaudio said that he "made it cuz he wanted to, if you make it they say 'you're a star', if you miss it 'you are a jerk'"
Both of them are right IMO
Thanks for the video

Re: What was Gaston thinking? Take a look
thats Gaudio, take it or leave it.
He did the same thing in the AO against Hrbaty and won the point.
It might not be the most effective play... but I like it anyway  |

Re: What was Gaston thinking? Take a look
i liked Cliffy's comment afterwards: "come on! that's why you get the big bucks!" 
talk about a stupid decision at a stupid time.

It's good, but not the best, IMO! I had worked under a few graduates from that school many, many years ago. |

Re: What was Gaston thinking? Take a look
It was a silly shot, but that's just how Gaston is.. As he said, he did it because he wanted to do it, and that is cause he really wants to enjoy while he plays, stupid but if it turned good, very entertaining!
