I don't really understand why is here Kubot. Maybe Davis Cup???? But I hope then continues in South American clay then.

Btw good luck Łukasz and Ernests!! :cheerleader: :bounce:

Re: Zagreb Entry List (updated December 20, 2011)

Ljubicic, Cilic, Gulbis, Juzni, Baghdatis, Karlovic, Dodig... great list.
And Haase, Rosol, Petzschner, Devvarman (maybe not at indoors tournament) can play great tennis.
I like that big stars like Baghdatis, Gulbis, Juzni so like to play in Zagreb.

Thay really should to give WC to Berrer. God, he deserved that!
One (Q)WC should go to Mate Pavic.

PS One WC will go to Veic. All previous champions will play on tre tournament!

I also was suprised that the list is that good, better than the previous two years I think. I rather thought this year will be very bad as there is another tournament in Europe that week now (Montpellier, prior it was Johannesburg) but Montpellier have an even better list. I'm really suprised so many want to play a tournament right after AO and right before Davis Cup.

Oh yeah and I think as well that Berrer deserves a WC here as a two time runner-up.

Yes they made mistake.

It's hard to make strong tournament on that given date, plus there is DC rubber now.

Cilic, Gulbis :yeah:

Re: Zagreb Entry List (updated December 20, 2011)

Bogo a top 3 seed? I don't even know what to say to that.

Re: Zagreb Entry List/Fact Sheet (updated January 16, 2012)

The Croats that are taking part of this tournament and a few names like Petzschner and Baghdatis are the ones that helped this list to look pretty descent.

Re: Zagreb Entry List/Fact Sheet (updated January 16, 2012)

I don't think de Croatian DC players should be happy if they reach the final considering the DC tie being in Japan next Friday.

But the list looks nice because of the Croats and Baghdatis, Youzhny, Haase, Petzschner and Garcia-Lopez!

Re: Zagreb Entry List/Fact Sheet (updated January 16, 2012)

Don't forget Gulbis, Stakhovsky (one or two times finalist) and even Devvarman.

Re: Zagreb Entry List/Fact Sheet (updated January 16, 2012)

Mečzer and Davydenko asked for WC. That would be first time that Russian is in Zagreb while Melzer is regular guesst.

Will Cilic really play there ? Will he be ready ?

Yes, he said a while ago he's skipping Chennai and Australian Open, and his first tournament of the year will be Zagreb

Are you going to Dom Sportova?

Re: Zagreb Entry List/Fact Sheet (updated January 21, 2012)

Month ago he said he will skip Chennai and AO and Zagreb will be his first tournament in the new season. There is no any word in croatian newspaper he won't play. It would be for sure because it's just 6 days to start of tournament.
There is one REALLY good thing: he said that he solved all his problems with knees for life-time. He had problem with inflammation of both knees. He (just; which actually isn't just) got injections in knees, didn't do any training for one month and that's it. He said he always had inflammation (what was obvious because he didn't go enough low in the knees). That will help for his career alot.
And he got 5 kilos more (from 82 to 87).
