Grass bounces a bit lower than hard, so Delpo'll have to do a lot of bending down to sliced balls (is that Lleyton Hewitt beat him?!)...<br /><br />I remember Agassi saying (when he retired) that the Slams will be toing and froing between Switzerland and Spain. I think there may be a the odd detour to Britain and perhaps Serbia! And, mainly to annoy Topspin more than anything else, maybe, just maybe to France! :P2Handerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05694468226012362282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8948801468516043822.post-72059877656425037802010-02-08T04:26:37.630+00:002010-02-08T04:26:37.630+00:00Hi 2Hander, nice to see you back and sorry about y...Hi 2Hander, nice to see you back and sorry about your loss. Glad tennis was a welcomed distraction for you.<br /><br />You still think Randy has a slam in him? I'll probably get egg on my face for saying this in 5 months time, but I'm sticking a fork in him. <br /><br />Topspin - del Potro has signed himself up to Queens for the next 3 years. Me thinks he *really* wants Wimby now that he's gotten a slam on hard court.dootsiezhttp://allineedisapicketfence.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8948801468516043822.post-60283182436878170682010-02-06T00:42:49.910+00:002010-02-06T00:42:49.910+00:00Hi 2Hander,
I'm one of those new readers you ...Hi 2Hander,<br /><br />I'm one of those new readers you refer to in your post, but you don't need to introduce yourself to me because at one point I actually read the whole blog! (Believe me, I do have a life, but there were attenuating circumstances that day!)<br />I must tell you that I found your posts about the state of British tennis very interesting. I don't consider them rants at all. You know when somebody answers you a question that you hadn't realised you had asked yourself? That's exactly what happened to me when I read your posts.<br />I'm sure I'm not the only person who's looking forward to reading more of your posts.<br />And if this blog helps you to deal with your loss, then it's a win-win situation!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16638705023349852583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8948801468516043822.post-64833660883884659712010-02-05T07:32:56.214+00:002010-02-05T07:32:56.214+00:00...and must all Croat tennis players be over 6ft 4......and must <b>all</b> Croat tennis players be over 6ft 4in?! Otherwise the short arses can't play!!!<br /><br />Honestly, I haven't seen too much of him. Like Andy Boy said, he's a big man so low balls may trouble him. He seems to have quite a lot in the bag in terms of arsenal...I'll reserve judgement on him for now if I may.2Handerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05694468226012362282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8948801468516043822.post-52272543610124980212010-02-05T01:25:44.137+00:002010-02-05T01:25:44.137+00:00Great to have you back!

I'm keen to see what he can do on grass once he finds his feet on it. <br /><br />Oh and what say you about Marin Cilc? Is he "the new delpo"? I love that he's got Ivanisevic on his team now.Zafarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11909444215193865334noreply@blogger.com
