AKA THE BRYAN BROTHERS!!!!!!! muhahaha I didn't comment on the ball bilbo issue yet. Can't believe it. It wouldn't get anymore TV viewers, because unless these models are naked, guys wouldn't care. Kremlin Cup had "prety" women standing bihend the player's benches for the same reason. I was annoyed by it... |

Yeah, nothing to add really. I hope Marat can still concentrate. It's a great chance for him to go far!

Fe-Lo is tiring himself out in the Vienna final right now. I wouldn't like Karlovic for 3 TBs again!  Hopefully Marat'll recover his return skills and will be able to break the opponent's serve whoever that'll be! And NO checking out the models, Marat!!!!! At the photos they look quite ugly anyway. But it'll be too bad them disturbing the flow of the game! OK, I'll get back to the Vienna final now. |

I am not very confident about Madrid I think there are a lot of dangerous players there for Marat, players he will come up against sooner rather than later and who he does not have a good record against. Andre as usual has an easy draw, IMO he always gets easy draws. We definately do not want him or Henman to do well. A lot of the players at Madrid are not in the runnings for Houston, but are hungry for a title and will go after this title, this puts more pressure on habibi;. I am glad that he is playing doubles with Andy Ram, they will hopefully beat the Bryan Brothers ;D and hopefully Andy will stay with Marat throughout and practise singles with him. Andy would be good support for Marat at this time. I noticed that poor Max had to qualify for the singles and got thru, it would be a real twist of fate if Marat ends up having to play him. The Kremlin cup was ideal for Marat, not that I am unhappy about Davydenko winning, and the doubles also with Igor, I am thrilled for them, but that title had Marat's name all over it, and so did the doubles after he and Max beat the Bryan Brothers. Okay got all of that off my chest as so to speak  Feel better now Good luck to habibi hope he can stay focused |
