I actually did watch the match. It was a close match, with a ton of winners from both players and some very exciting netplay by Tsonga. Djokovic tried hard, but he was not able to defeat a determined Tsonga in the end. Tsonga won his first ATP title, 7-6, 6-4.

The news is in french, but i didn't found it on any English sites.
federer "needs a break" and it's possible that he's going to pass the rest of the season. However, he's got huges hopes for 2009, such as recover his throne (aka N.1 rank). That surprise me a bit, espacially after his awesome US Open! |

Yeah, they could meet in the 3rd round. I fixed the original post (hopefully witht the right corrections this time).
Here's the draw in case anyone else wants to see it: http://www.mutuamad-mastersmadrid.co...s/2008/MDS.pdf

Nadal and Gulbis are playing now. Nadal leads 7-5, 1-4 (obviously trailing in the 2nd set).
I'm watching it here: http://www.justin.tv/superdeportes It's in Spanish (and interestingly enough for me, I just got back from Spanish class :lol) EDIT: Nadal won. Gulbis, once again, had a mental meltdown in the 3rd set.

6-4 federer
wow at Tsonga 3 DFs in the last game. Best point of the set was the one that setup the 2 set points. (after that point, the commentator referred to Federer as "the world's number 1" :lol ) commentators are still not used to him being number 2. Tsonga definitely felt the pressure of playing Federer in that game lets see if he can relax in the second set

It's amazing how many UEs Djokovic made during the rallies. At times, he's hitting the lines with ease, then the next he's missing. He wasn't playing Federer. He's playing gigantic, lumbering Karlovic. He tried to be too good when he didn't have to be.
It's a good thing I'm watching tennis more objectively now or I'd be insanely pissed/disappointed :lol |
