Absolutely. If money was no object and I didn't work, then I would go to everything - but the point is there are lots of tournaments within a convenient distance from my home (especially in the Spring and early Summer) - so why spend a week of my holidays in November when I could have a week in the Austrian mountains in July or Monte Carlo in April?

Definitely! lol!

I would love to go to the Austrian mountains in July - Nico always does well in Kitz.

And Monte Carlo is one of my dream tournaments. It just looks beautiful there. Though I was a little bummed because I thought it was still very elegant and sophisticated like in Cary Grant movie with the casinos but I heard that it isn't like that anymore. Oh well...still would like to go.

I wish money wasn't an object either - that I was independently wealthy and didn't have to work because yup - I'd be at every tournament!!! Gonna have to win the lottery though for that to happen...lol!

Good luck to Nico in Paris and to all Nico's fans everywhere. I hope your nightmare year will end. Buena suerte y Vamos to Nico.

Paris draw is out.

Nico got Max in the first round.

He should just go home. Why waste the time and money?

Oh well, this season s*cked so why should his last draw be any different?

Thanks for posting the draw!

Probably doesn't matter which part of the draw he's in - he won't get by Max anyway.

Don't be so pessimistic NicoFan !!! Maybe, he'll win !! You know Max can be in a bad day !!

I know, but 5 straight losses in the row and then getting Max.

Nico will feel like he's a goalkeep rather than a tennis player.

And its not for me that I want him to go home. I hate thinking of him suffering so much. My sweet chico...

But yes, he's my fighter and Max could serve like sh*t. One can only hope...

I can imagine that french kissing Nico would be awesome...

Yeah, there's something about Nico that inspires such thoughts.... I think we're forming a line here Nicofan!

And the draw isn't good but I still hold out hope Nico can/will get a win. He CAN do it I know that, he just has to get on the court and see himself as a winner. Buena Suerte Nico!!!

[Fergie]

Crappy draw ... Nico will finish the year losing 6 matchs in a row

We do have to be positive. It will be tough, but we just have to send him positive cosmic vibes... We have to believe in him until the last ball is hit.

About that line...unless we are all tall, blonde, and look like models...I think we'll be waiting a long time...lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[french-guru]

I am average height, latina, have brown eyes, and black short hair, where would I be in the line, surely not in the back!
