sports.yahoo.com/ten/news?slug=ap-kremlincup&prov=ap&type=lgnsDavydenko will next face seventh-seeded Marat Safin of Russia, who beat Julien Benneteau of France 6-4, 0-6, 6-2. Davydenko defeated Safin in the 2006 final. “I have no illusions,” Safin said. “Judging from his today’s match, he plays and moves perfectly. I think I have little chances, but why not to try. I have nothing to loose.” Davydenko won four straight games in the first set and five straight in the second to close out the match in 56 minutes. “The score speaks for itself,” Davydenko said. “I played confidently and controlled the match.” Safin, who didn’t win a game in the second set, took a 5-2 lead in the third and served the match out with an ace. “It was a strange match,” Safin said. “I should have played like I did in the first and the third set and it could have been finished in two sets. But there was something wrong with me in the second set.”

1. Congrats to Maratski on the win 2. Sets 1 and 3 sound encouraging but set 2 doesnt 3. He plays Kolya i know it sounds stupid cos its true but Kolya looks at home on this surface and has been ruthless so far 4. Marat is playing with no expectations so i advise his fans to take note themselves and wish for the best nonetheless COME ON MARAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

6 bloody 0? Was it the hamster playing in the second set? Big Yin, how many times do I have to say it? Get a grip! Forget about the furry slippers when you're on court. I ain't gonna flutter over to Moscow with a sack of fairy dust - that only applies to the green, green grass of Wimbles. Good grief. Davy Boy ain't gonna allow you that luxury tomorrow. I expect to be able to watch you on SKY in the semis - get on with it you muppet! Your harem have gone through enough. Focus, and just do it. Straight sets, or else ...

People are often unreasonable, irrational and self-centered! Forgive them anyway.

that must have made Jankovic very happy I'm sure it did...would've made me happy and inspired too! LOL OR maybe he's 'scouting' the competition for Dinara... ;D Anyway, I hope he does better on the next round against kolya...may the curse of the second set already passed...;-x
