ferru vs berdych could be interesting. lets see how berdych is able to bounce back from that first round loss.


here is the schedule:

here is a cool sig for a Federer fan:








I call this a super sig so something like this can only be used here at Camelot.

Ferrer/Berdych could go either way, but mainly because I don't know how fresh Ferrer is after such a brutal few weeks. If he's feeling OK, he should be able to take down Berdych.

somebody was saying the other day that they thought Berdych was not quite himself against wawrinka.

what was being suggested was that he was somewhat suboptimal with his movement. I did not see the entire match so I cannot really comment on berdych.


I think you are right general tented: it is hard to call this one. they both lost their first round matches.

they should come out more determined and more focused. ferru still amazes me given his age. the guy is going to finish the year at #3.

Rafa is playing like crap again, he was so lucky to win that tiebreak. I still don't get why he plays so many shots to Wawa's backhand, I understand it is Rafa's most comfortable shot (crosscourt forehand to opponents backhand) but he needs to avoid doing that or he will keep getting burned.

Excellent point. It is what he's comfortable with, and sometimes he gets away with murder, but it's also a dangerous move.

I think Fed will struggle against Gasquet judging by their first group matches. Delpo should beat Nole IMO, Nole looks spent.

I think you are right.



nole also has davis cup immediately following WTF. and davis cup is best of 5 sets format.

he pretty much has to secure 2 points for Serbia otherwise they could lose.



roger is still having a bit of a confidence crisis. I am going to have to agree. he may just struggle a little bit against gasquet.

terrible tennis from nadal. I am surprised that Spartan stan was not able to snatch a set at least.
