Puschkin or the voice of Wisdom:worship:

exactly,now he is n°8 in the world,he got a new statut he has to make the others respect him.
That was great to qualify for the TMC in shangai but it was a step to another level.The tough things begins NOW.
All these good opponents will see him differently I think.It will be tough cause he is the one to beat but richard will have to show he's not afraid of them and that he will do his job.Win matches.go!:drive:

Disgusting draw. :help:

 

[*julie*]

:wavey: It's nice to see you back Silver. Have a happy new year.

He is a bad draw for his opponents, not the other way round.

Unfortunately, I am not sure he realizes it. (I tend to forget it too :lol: )

It's not an easy draw but at least, it will be a good preparation for the AO.
Allez Richard! Get some confidence.

 

[PinkFeatherBoa]

Allez Richard!

Remember who's supposed to be the player to beat...:scratch:

 

[Schu]

That's pretty much what I said. He's in the top ten now and sooner or later he will have to face tough opponents, not always expecting an easy draw. Deal with it or go home. :shrug:

So true. I was reacting like a fan of the "old Richie" but now he is in the TOP 10, has overcome a pressure filled match in front of his home crowd, given Nadal a tough match and beaten Djoke in Shanghai, he SHOULD be able to deal with anyone in this draw. We'll know in a few days if the old or the "new Richie" has come to Australia.

Allez Richie - just believe in yourself and stay fired up!

Anyone know of any live stream links for Sydney? I've been itching to see Richard live in action.

 

[*Sweet4Richard*]

Tough way to start the year, but he has to face the big names to improve. Allez!

channelsurfing.net always has good live feed.

 

[j'adore_richie]

Or use myp2p.eu, go to 'live sports' and click on tennis. It should have a few streams for different tournies.

Tough opening match.

Good luck, Richie. :bounce:

Mia, Richie most probably plays Stan in the second round.

Sorry that Stan lost to Murray. :hug:

But please let Richie do it to Stan as well if he faces. :devil:

To tell the truth, I prefer a rather early exit for Stan in Sydney. I want him fresh at AO.

Now, it's Richie's turn for a deep run. :rocker2:

Andreev lost to Johansson 1 st round last week in Doha 0-6 1-6. So he does not look like a monster. Wawrinka has to play a final today and travel to Australia thereafter, it won't be easy for him eihter. And as had been pointed out by others: Richard is nr 8 in the world now: He is a bad draw for his opponents, not the other way round.

Agree. They are all beatable players, if Richard will play well.

Thank you!

Just 1 or 2 days left before his first match in most likely yet another roller-coaster year.
