Wow this tournament is very strong. Because of Davis Cup I guess.

GL bedene, kuznetsov, marti =)

Re: Week 14: Barletta (Entry List)

In the tournament website, Potito isn't here, why?

GL reid!

Re: Week 14: Barletta (Entry List)

lovely pic! gl to the spaniard army, especially to roberto bautista in his first clay game of the season!

 

[sheva07]

Re: Week 14: Barletta (Entry List)

Schoorel and Sijsling have to play Davis Cup as well. I guess they're out?

 

[Filo V.]

Re: Week 14: Barletta (Entry List)

Yes they are out. This list has been changed and unfortunately diminished a lot, Klizan and Ungur are also out, Beck is out. Fognini is taking a WC here and Bolelli might.

Re: Week 14: Barletta (Entry List)

one more match for krajinovic to qualify!

 

[Helevorn]

Re: Week 14: Barletta (Entry List)

main draw http://www.atpworldtour.com/posting/2012/60/mds.pdf

Re: Week 14: Barletta (Entry List)

Fognini's first tournament since his injury?

 

[Filo V.]

Re: Week 14: Barletta (Entry List)

Bedene vs Bolelli. Simone should have the weapons to take that match. If he does, he has a good draw to the semis. Although I would like Pere to also make the SF, so it's gonna be a hard match for me if the two play each other.

Fabio has a very easy draw and should make the semis here if he's in good shape. He needs the points with RG coming on the horizon so hopefully he can do what needs to be done.

Filippo has an good draw to the QF, at least. The only threat I see is Giannessi. Alessandro vs Filippo will be a good QF match should they play.

Victor has a good draw as well. Maybe Lojda can prove a threat in R2. Potito vs Victor will be a great QF match should they play.

Re: Week 14: Barletta (Entry List)

I'm going with a Bedene/Bolelli winner vs Starace final here. Poto loves these Italian challengers and brings his best. Bedene is the defending champ and will be motivated. If Simone can defeat him, I don't see him being stopped.

Re: Week 14: Barletta (Entry List)

Krajinovic vs Fognini R1, interesting.

 

[SapELee]

Re: Week 14: Barletta (Entry List)

GL to Krajinovic

 

[Henry Chinaski]

Re: Week 14: Barletta (Entry List)

Burzi was a late withdrawal from San Luis to accept a wildcard here.

That's some bullshit for whoever missed out on San Luis main draw (Hormazabal I think)

 

[ciprianned]

Re: Week 14: Barletta (Entry List)

GL Hane !

 

[Nathaliia]

Re: Week 14: Barletta (Entry List)

very interesting field, italians come in a very strong group, one of them really should escape with the title (bolelli i hope)

 

[Keyser Soze]

Re: Week 14: Barletta (Entry List)

31 years old Burzi breaking Riba's serve 6 out of 9 times to win comfortably 6-2 6-3 in 1 h 22 min. :worship:

 

[Filo V.]

Re: Week 14: Barletta (Entry List)

Burzi def. Riba 6-2 6-3
Olaso def. Cervantes 1-6 6-2 6-2

Did anyone see what happened to Pere? I mean, to lose THAT badly to someone like Burzi says it all. Was he looking ill/sick? Was Burzi on fire?
