Marat played really great, he didnt let a few blips bring him down like usual, reminds me of the this years wimbledon play as well, deep concentration and not getting down even if he lost serve. losing the 2nd set was dissapointing cause i think he was the better play, probably the only real laspse in concentration (oh and the first game of the match as well lol) So happy and even better that the TGFR girls get to see him play more  |

BIG WIN!!!!!!!No dips, no braincramps, no distraction, just good tennis. WTF happened to him? I'm still in shock, lol! Annette, that's typical Marat!! There's no match without drama from him. And this one is probably the sweetest ever since Wimby. LMAO! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D It's a shame that this match is only a quarter-final. The level of play certainly is way beyond. So looking forward to dear Admin's report and comments!!!!! Oh, boy. I am in heaven.  |

LMAO. Did you leave the hamster in the locker room Big Yin? ;D Why do you all sound so surprised girls? ;D ;D Ye of little faith ... about time he got his arse back in gear though. I was about to trade him in for a budgie. Kiddin'. Well done. I knew it was only a matter of time. I believe SKY is showing the semis - brill. I'll be able to see that Wimbles magic on display again. Get on with it. You can stroke the furry slippers after the final. ;D |

I expected the worst when I went to check the scores for today, and ...  ... wait, what's that? Do my eyes deceive me? Marat. Won.?! ... excuse me while I almost fall out of my chair LOL ... Way to go! ;D Shame I missed it. And shame TTC's only had WTA coverage since DC ... thank god for Madrid next week.  Keep it up Marat!  |

SKY are NOT showing the semis! Bugger. It's an Austrian tournament. Is 365 showing the KC? What's the estimated GMT on this one?
It's a sunny day here ... the garden beckons ... but a semis showing has the stronger pull. ;D
Good luck Big Yin. Focus!

Just checked - 365 will livestream the match shortly. Gardening is on hold. PS That was a real 'girlie' match between Jelena and Elena. What kind of scoreline was that?  |
