Well done! 
Hope Gaston is feeling happy, too.

Yeah, I noticed the same.
Especially in the 2nd set. In the 1st game (Fish serving), Gaston came back from 40-0 to deuce but after some deuces finally no break. In the next game he was broken. But he broke back immediately.
Also, Gaston kept his service 40-0 at least a few times, while he often forced to deuces in Fish's services. |

Long way to go, but it's a win and that's all that counts.

He tried in the secound set....I would have dreaded to see him just giving up.
Just keep hanging in there Gaston |

The good thing is that Gaudio fought hard...and we should applaud him for that.

He didn't lose to Fish, which would have been far worse for his confidence, than losing to Roddick. Slowly but surely......
