CAMELOT FANTASIES

i bet any money that there are at least 100,000 tennis forums out there.

and about 10 million forums of one kind or another.

elite Camelot tennis society sounds cooler to me.


that means we will try for quality people and we will try to stay a certain size.

and most forums are just too complex. people just want to post, chat a little bit about sports, look at pictures/images, and interact with some normal and familiar folks on somewhat regular basis.

normal people don't time for all the extra bullshit.

agreed. small family will be better for us.

it will take some time obviously but we will get there.

Grigor just won. Wooohoooooo

Next for Grigot is Struff. A tall guy, has power. Grigor should win but you never know with him

hopefully dimitrov can get on a bit of a roll here and take this title. it will be good for his confidence.

he has to really focus and go for the title.

I was just looking at the ATP calendar. What do you think about the following "schedule" for Rafa:

Jan. 13 - 26           Australian Open  (GS)
Feb. 3 - 9              Vina Del Mar        (ATP 250)
Feb 17 - 23           Rio                       (ATP 500)
Feb. 24 - Mar. 2    Acapulco              (ATP 500)
Mar. 3 - 15            Indian Wells        (Masters)
4-week break
Apr. 14 - 20          Monte Carlo         (Masters)

That is a total of 4,750 points. Rafa has 2,500 points to defend from 2013.

that looks optimal to me in terms of getting his motor going for RG. and once he has RG, everything else just becomes a bonus from my own vantage point.

also that makes him happy and keeps him happy come what may.

he is already committed to rio so we know its happening.


what we don't know is if he carlos moya will able to persuade him to play davis cup early next year.


he doesn't really need to defend indian wells next year. he will pick up points in rio and i think he takes back monte carlo next year. he will not be coming back from a 7 month layoff like he had to this year. the less hard court activity the better going into paris. it will safeguard the knee.

Well, I hope he doesn't go to Miami just like this year. This will give him almost a month off before the clay season.

Rio/Acapulco/IW are in consecutive weeks so I doubt he will play all of them but one can always hope
