Re: Rogi at Dubai
Thanks GWH for the info. Aww poor Rafa, I was hoping he can get to his second final. But he'll have his many finals and trophys soon enough.
Good luck against Jarkko Rogi!  Please be careful, playing a lefty is tricky. |

Re: Rogi at Dubai
Come on Rogi, you have to beat two lefties now Jarkko first and I hope it's a good match by both with Roger winning.
Then if Rogi is successful take out Feli "I am So Beautiful Yet I Don't Have A Backhand" Lopez.

Re: Rogi at Dubai
Win this thing now!!!  
Lopez will be tough regardless of not having a bh. He's a Serve-Volleyer who has a big serve, so that could present some problems. he needs to return well, and pass well, while staying agressive and coming to net behind his own serve. |

Re: Rogi at Dubai
FEDERER: "The game was never over. I was down he deserved that first set, I thought he was the better player but I sneaked out of it. I'm really happy that for now the serve is saving me and feel much better on break points and hopefully it'll stay like this in the final."
FEDERER ON SUNDAY'S FINAL AGAINST LOPEZ (he's 2-0 lifetime against the Spaniard): "We played each other in Madrid last time and was lucky to beat him in a tough three-setter and beat him at Wimbledon that was really tough too."
HOPP, Roger! Go defend your title!!!

Re: Rogi at Dubai
Thanks for the quote Mrs. B! 
good job Rogi. LOL, I am wondering if they will show up with similar clothes and accessories tomorrow? The spectator on the far back can get confused who's who 
Good luck tomorrow Rogi. Another lefty, please be careful. Win your second title please! |

Re: Rogi at Dubai
Also, its really important for Roger to try and win ATLEAST 1 of the back-to-back TMS. He could lose his #1 spot, to Roddick or Ferrero, if he plays poorly there, or one of them wins it. Those 2 tourneys will be very important for him to perform well at, if he is to keep his #1 spot

Re: Rogi at Dubai
LOL MisterQ. Bah I want to see this match!
Hmmm, maybe one of the stat gurus here can let us know what Rogi need to do in the two TMSs to secure his #1? He's only defending first round at IW and 4th round at Nasdaq.
