Oh the carnage! Opening day at Wimbledon has come and gone, and half of those who took the court today are disappointed. The other half are not. (Deep - I know…)
I got home from work today and flipped through the draw to see who was still alive and kickin’. This morning I mentioned that Lleyton […]
Like one it says in one of those old western movies I used to watch with my pa, “You fit a good fight, Querrey.”
And he did. Sam Querrey was ousted by Novak Djokovic at the Monte Carlo Masters 6-4, 6-0 in the quarters, but boy, did Querrey give the American tennis fans something to bank […]
I called David Nalbandian for the semifinals of the Pacific Life Open, and I was wrong. For those of you who don’t like me, embrace this moment because it won’t be lasting long.
What a match thoughbetween the world number seven and Mardy Fish who is ranked, oh - uh - yes, 98 in the world. […]
Gah. Lleyton Hewitt. He won. That was me eating my words. Now let’s move on.
In other news, David Nalbandian? Cremated. Burnt toast. Hasta la pasta in three sets (6-1, 6-2, 6-3) by Juan Carlos Ferrero. and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga took out Richard Gasquet in four. Is it going to be Tsonga in the final with Roger?
For […]
With the Australian Open set to kick off tomorrow, I need to get my preview of the men’s side of the tournament in before the first serve is hit.

What’s going on Down Under? They’re dropping like flies!
David Nalbandian withdrew from the Kooyong tournament after suffering a back injury while warming up with Marat Safin. Nalbandian wrapped up the 2007 season with a flurry of a pair of wins over both Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal. Psh, no big deal. Riiiiiight.
Nalbandian is now on the […]
The wait is over and the top eight are set to go in Shanghai for the Masters Cup title. Drawings for the round-robin groups put Roger Federer, Andy Roddick, Nikolay Davydenko and Fernando Gonzalez in the Red Group.
The Gold Group - obviously - has the other top four players in the world: Rafael Nadal, David […]
Is it time to make room for a third at the top of the ranks? For quite some time, Nadal and Federer have separated themselves from the rest of the pack. Federer has set himself beyond Nadal even. However, for the second time in as many tournaments, David Nalbandian has won his second title at […]
I don’t know where I was yesterday when the big man fell, but unseeded David Nalbandian stepped up to the plate and chopped down the largest tree in the forest…after taking down the second and third largest trees earlier in the tournament.
Nalbandian won in Madrid by coming from a set down (1-6, 6-3, 6-3) to […]
