Hello all, looks like some really great matches tomorrow. Too bad I'll be missing it all.

Nole faces Isnesr while Nadal faces Janowicz. Both big servers however JJ is out of form at the moment and I am not sue where Isner is these days.

Raonic vs Berdych, Gasquet vs Nishi, Dimitrov vs Delpo all going to be competitive. Paris is not seeing it's usual tanking fest I can tell you that.

Grigor played like crap today and if it wasn't for Fognini's constant clowning and injury in the second set Grigor would have lost. I don't think he has any chance against in-form Delpo.

I am watching Rafa's match right now on my DVR, he is not playing well at all. His serving is good, but his footwork is awful and he misses so many easy shots.

nadal gets rusty in a hurry.


that is ok. he has done his work for the year. now it does not really matter if he wins or not for the remainder of the season.


lets just say that he wins by just staying healthy. that is the most critical thing right now.

he is staring down history. no need to take excessive risk and get injured.

Delpo should win but I don't think Dimitrov is going to hand it on a plate. But they both should be relatively tired so a a messy error prone play from both won't be too surprising.

que pasa emma.



I have the order of play for tomorrow:


http://www.atpworldtour.com/Scores/schedule.aspx?EventId=352




they will look to improve a little bit tomorrow.


no telling what is going to happen here in paris. my guess is that one of the following 3 will snatch the title:

1. del potro
2. nole
3. Federer



not sure what is going on with the world famous coach Florian Meier. his marketing director was going to post a couple of cool instructional videos yesterday here at Camelot.

they may had more pressing matters to tend to.


I will email them again. they agreed that it was mutually beneficial to both parties (us and them) to do something like that.

That Florian Meier thing is impressive, herc. Maybe I can ask Sampras to stop by and post us a note. Is all within my power, baby!

Actually it's not too far fetched. I know someone who knows Sampras quite well. In fact, I can ask Andy to stop by. You never know!

Cycling-Hesjedal doped more than 10 years ago - 2012 Giro winnerReuters 5 hours ago



 Content preferences Done * Former Giro winner Hesjedal admits to previously doping

* Canadian says it was short-lived and over 10 years ago (Adds USADA reaction)

By Julien Pretot

PARIS, Oct 30 (Reuters) - Canadian Ryder Hesjedal, winner of the 2012 Giro d'Italia, became the latest rider to admit to a troubled past when he said on Wednesday he had doped "more than 10 years ago".

"I have loved and lived this sport but more than a decade ago I chose the wrong path," said the Garmin-Sharp rider in a statement.

"Even though those mistakes happened more than 10 years ago, and they were short-lived, it does not change the fact I made them and I have lived with that and been sorry for it ever since."

The statement came in response to allegations by Dane Michael Rasmussen who said earlier on Wednesday he taught Hesjedal how to take the banned blood-booster erythropoietin (EPO) in 2003.

Rasmussen was kicked out of his Rabobank team while was leading the Tour de France in 2007 for having lied about his whereabouts to doping authorities.

His claims were made in a book, from which extracts were published by Danish newspaper Politiken on Wednesday.

Rasmussen was at Rabobank in 2003 while Hesjedal, then a mountain bike rider, was in the Dutch outfit's development team.

"I believe that being truthful will help the sport continue to move forward, and over a year ago when I was contacted by anti-doping authorities, I was open and honest about my past," said Hesjedal.

The Canadian was one of several riders - past and present - and managers to be called on to testify by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) in the case against Lance Armstrong, who was stripped of his seven Tour de France titles for doping.

I am just trying out different looks for now.

i wanted to see if the Wimbledon look works a little bit because of the connection between Camelot and England.


and of course we can keep changing the cover images as we move along.
