Who do you see winning this match?

James Blake vs Agustin Calleri

 

[Horatio Caine]

tough one, but gun to my head I'd go with Blake.

 

[Jaap]

Should be a great tactical battle out there.

 

[Adler]

with great mental tourghness on both sides

 

[Henry Chinaski]

yeah gary kasparov will be tuning into this one hoping to learn something

 

[TMJordan]

Blake has got to be getting tired, QF's at Indian Wells and Miami and 8 sets of tennis in DC last weekend.

I'm sure Calleri has enjoyed his time off and trained on clay as he had two nice matches coming into this.

But in the end Blake will probaly find a way to win. I hope I'm wrong though.

 

[GustavoM_Fan]

Calleri choked badly the last 2 times he played vs Blake

 

[Bilbo]

[bad gambler]

There is going to be a lot of guile and finesse in this one.

Sight for sore eyes with 2 blockheads going at it.

 

[TankingTheSet]

All things being equal the slow clay should tip things into Calleri's favour I think, Blake may be flattered by the draw here to get this far (tired/jetlagged/unprepared Nishikori and a 15-year old, avarage age of his opponents 16.5 years).

 

[JimmyV]

James will probably win it, but if Calleri comes to play he could take it.

 

[Henry Chinaski]

rumour has it that these 2 have decided to play this match best of 5 after hearing of mtf's worst 5 set record thread so that at least one of them gets the chance to improve their abysmal record.

 

[Clay Death]

James will probably win it, but if Calleri comes to play he could take it.

calleri in 3. Blake owes him one.

 

[Kitty de Sade]

This should be a regular clinic, and my head says Blake.

Hoping for Gordo to prove that wrong though.

Calleri had him on the ropes on hard courts in connecticut. he was up 5-4, 40-0 on his own serve and proceeded to choke it away.

that was on hard courts which is Blake`s best surface.

i think Calleri should take this one. Blake`s high risk game pays very few dividends on dirt.
