i dunno if this thread already exists
but i though it would be useful to know what tournament he plans to enter
so we always know what tourny's next etc.
or talk about the future tournaments

Oct. 3-9: no tournament
Oct. 10-16: Vienna
Oct. 17-23: Madrid
Oct. 24-30: Basel
Oct.31-Nov. 6: Paris

that's it for this year i guess as he won't be among the last eight i think

 

[french-guru]

this is great. thanks Corinna

:sigh: Juan will win nothing this year again.

 

[Corinna]

glad you like it

don't give up hope juanquical

 

[jinruferrero]

as far as i know,Juanqui will enter Oct. 10-16: Vienna
Oct. 17-23: Madrid
and Paris.
it's so difficult that he win title.

 

[Corinna]

he is on the entry list of basel to, i think - but rogi is too

 

[RogiFan88]

To tell you the truth, I think Rogi is the least of Juanqui's problems at Basel cos Rogi never wins his hometown tournament (although I'm sure he's determined to win it this year finally). Basel draws a tough field including Nadal, Nalbandian, Coria, and Henman, plus Hrbaty, Stepanek, Gonzalez, Srichaphan, and this year Berdych.

There'll be no title for Juanqui in 2005...although I see that Bjorkman just won his first title in three years in Vietnam, so it's not impossible for 2006, but Jonas is a better fighter than Juanqui is.

Does the regular season really end the first week of November?

 

[casillas_girl]

I thought Juanqui was going to play the challenger in Mons next weekend!
Too bad isn't comming then!

 

[RogiFan88]

Does the regular season really end the first week of November?

I guess so, Sol...Paris is the last tournament of the regular season and it starts Oct 31. Here's the calendar: http://www.atptennis.com/en/tournaments/fullcalendar/

I hope he does play all of those tournaments so that he can at least get closer to his goal of ending the year in the Top 15. But he has to do really well because he has about 200 or more points to make up and some good indoor players ahead of him in the entry rankings: Hrbaty, Stepanek, and Ljubicic. Also indoor carpet is probably his weakest surface, and he has never done well in Paris indoors.

don't give up hope juanquical

"We have to live in the present!" Robredo said.

I give hope to Juan many times,but I can't be out of touch with reality.

That Tommy is right,but he can't win a title this year too. :yawn:

 

[Corinna]

yeah maybe he can't win a title - but iwould be even satisfied if he did well

 

[I♥[email protected]!c]

So do I.If he loses to Federer and top players in tight sets surely I'm satisfied.Nobody is perfect. Now his first aim is winning in straight sets against average/lower ranking players,don't tell me he loses finally even he has a break or mp.

 

[Corinna]

he should have won the match against behrend
but he moved so much in the rankings this year - so i am quite satisfied with the year - he just has to win a title next year

 

[I♥[email protected]!c]

Yeah,in the beginning of this year I don't expect he can climb the top 15.
I guess next year his new title is on hard court but not on clay.

 

[Corinna]

i wonder why he isn't that brilliant on clay as he used to be :shrug: perhaps he practised more on grass orr hard?

 

[I♥[email protected]!c]

Yeah he has some good rallies but I think his body can't let him win many x hours matches on clay in each tourney.Also he wants to be next Lopez. :haha: I mean in Spain almost everyone is good at clay,who thinks Juan is special? :shrug:

 

[Corinna]

perhaps he should focus on grass and rafa wouldn't be a danger anymore
honestly i want him to win Rg one more time please

 

[I♥[email protected]!c]

Nadal even said he wants to win wimby! :haha:
I want him to win a new one,but we know he is so hard to do that.

 

[Corinna]

i wouldn't care what GS it is - the most important thing is that he wins one
but a normal title would be okay too
