Marat winning in doubles from Bryan-brohws... whooohooo!!  Great work! I've seen him missing some volleys and returns... but he also did great things there.. and at least they've won! jeeej! Mirnyi worked hard too... they played good together.. so I guess he's not too upset about yesterday ;D  Question.. does Marat begin to like the tiebreaks?? 3 against rodthingy... 3 against mirnyi.. 2 in doubles today...  He's practising them, so it seems  He won half of them.. so keep on practising boy.. and you'll win them all!! ;D The video thingy is great indeed  Eurosport broadcasts only the wta tournament in Moscow... so these video's are more than welcome |

Especially for Jiat!

It was quite a show! Maxim Mirniy/Marat Safin and the American brothers Bob and Mike Bryan staged a real spectacle on the centre court. Powerful serves of the Russian-Belorussian duo were matched by excellent teamwork and experience of the Americans. After winning the first set 7/5 Mirnyi and Safin had the chance to finish the match with triple match point in the tie-break. But at the decisive moments the Americans were more precise and composed, 7/6. The match was decided in the third set in which the scales fluctuated. This time Safin and Mirnyi who had teamed up for the first time got lucky in the tennis lottery, 7/6.

The Russian have messed up with the links. Probably didn't get to translating the press release yet. So I tried my best, have to run now!
