[marats]

Go for it Number 49 !

[CaliforniaSuds]

I'm thinking at least quarterfinals this run, maybe more!!!!

[SAFINNO1]

I dont think the Miami people like Marat Safin that much,
DRAW IS IN THE 1 POST

Henman rd 1
Hewitt rd 2
Schrichipan rd 3
Roddick rd 4 enough said

DAVAI MARAT

Also battle between Russia and England Marat and Misha v Tim and Greg.

Annie i know your out there!! ;D ;D

[highwoodchica]

could that be a crappier draw?! oh well i still believe. vamos marat! thanks for the draw info safinno1.
does anyone know if marat's going to that stars for stars party thing in miami? might get some new pics if so

[sabz]

and here was me hoping the draw would be kind!
henman, hewitt, schrichipan, roddick!!!! thats just not good!!!
and why oh why did marat have to go against tim!!! (and misha v greg!) WHY?!!!!
well now that i let that out, all i can say is DAVAI MARAT!!! lets hope he can spring MANY surprises during this tournament!! ;D

[Addie]

Surprises? Marat's going to need Harry Houdini antics for this draw! Oh, well. It'll be a real test for how he's doing!

[sabz]

To be honest, I dont see Tim beatin Marat (but then again it wouldnt surprise me if he did ) but for the 2nd round, the last time lleyton and marat met was in the auzzie open FINAL! that shows you how much things have changed since then!

[avalon]

the way lleyton is playing at the moment, Marat will walk all over him

[highwoodchica]

wasn't sure where to post this, but i saw on the atp's site that marat is now ranked 47th!!! he jumped six places!!!! well done darling! and sabz, hewitt is ranked 14th. yeah, things have REALLY changed.
even with this nasty draw, i've got my fingers crossed and vamos marat!

[emma]

Marat vs Tim
I really like Tim too

[ruth]

That will be a fun one!!

[ruth]

I'm beginning to think that Marat's opponents are incidental at this stage of the 'return'. He's not aimimg to win anything at the moment, just get match practice; but the earlier he gets knocked out in a tournament the longer he has to wait til the next one. So, it's not who he plays but how he plays that's important. Still, it gives the knee and the mind some recovery time. And more revision of that awful word 'patience'!

[marats]

Wow ........... what a draw !!!

Good luck Marat against Tim ! You can beat him !
Against difficult players play's Marat his best tennis !

[alsl]

Righty folks..some stats

Marat leads Henman 3-2 in H2H
The last time they played was the masters cup in houston (round robin).Marat won 6-2 7-6
