We have our own ball kid at the tournament great!
Their were loads of press at the LA airport, dare i say it David Beckham's arrival may have overshadowed Marat's arrival just a bit. But it was crazy
Seems LA is the place to be at the moment, let the good time roll Marat!!!!
UDACHI MARAT
I think draw takes place Friday Evening

VAMOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL ;D VAMOS MARAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Guccione in the 1st round will be interesting - a big server who plays a good serve-volley game. Pushed Kolya to the edge at Wimbledon and is an able player on fast surfaces. But Marat should win & hopefully santoro will lose  UDACHI MARAT!!!!!! |

Watched Guccione v Davydenko at Wimbledon - and I saw him play Bogdanovich. I wouldn't take him lightly - he's got a pretty heavy serve and he's got good hands at the net. Keep him on the baseline, take him wide and then get in to the net before him. Go for his backhand as well when he's on the baseline. PS Rafa, that pic is still making me cry. God bless you. You have made my year. ;D I've been grinning all day and have my copy of the pic in my purse ... in preparation for my first meeting on Monday morning at 10am. |
