he just needed about three less hours than Nadal .no wonder if u analyze the style of play of each one .he could have won way easier too but of course he is a Calleri.

This is a seriously strange start to the season, I can't pick the winner of a match to save myself.

Thanks Calleri for helping me in PAW.

Congrats Gordo , although I thought there was a choke on it's way again at 6-3 5-2...

Moya

Yeah, seven of the eight seeds were defeated in the first or second round, with only Berdych remaining. Just another reminder that the Australian Open lead-up tournaments are a really poor indicator of who will do well at the AO.

Crazy ... I am disappointed with Carlos today. Perhaps he will do better in Melbourne now? But who am I to say that? I hope each year for a repeat of Moya in 1997, but my hopes are fading, must accept reality. He's lost in the first round in Melbourne for the last 3 years in a row ... I know he's getting older, but that Chennai semi against Nadal was superb. Surely he can give me a bit more hope this year? I'd even settle for him getting through 3 rounds in A.O.!!

GLAD calleri won. He is sexy and so is his backhand.

i as expecting Koubek to do it earlier

go and rest Charlie for the big one

Gordo . A good win for over Moya who was the runner-up at this tournament last year.

What the fuck?
Very strange but I think unfortunately very common with Carlos. On day he almost defeated Nadal and then....I lost words.... I am disappointed,but still fingers crosseed....

Carlos is playing very well. But he is no spring chicken. He has a limited supply of gas in the tank. Best to save what he has for the Australian Open. No surprises here. Carlos will have very few remaining chancing to do as well in a slam as he has for this one right now. Good to see he will start it rested, confident and with a satisfactory amount of matches played.

 

[Adler]

Not surprising. You should know why

 

[TheBoiledEgg]

Carlos........ but he got enough matches last week.
top 16 seed for him in AO, so hoping for a good run.

 

[jonny84]

I found it surprising that Moya lost.

 

[Gonzalez88]

Carlos was very very tired!!
