Pictures from Stuttgart
Fantastic tournament here in Stuttgart. Great organization and a beautiful setting. Some good tennis too! Here are some pics to start with:
Haas returns
Yes, Tommy Haas is back on the tour after a year absence due to injury. [Why Haas has struggled so much with injuries over the year is hard to know, he sure seems to have a playing style and technique that’s ideal for not getting injuries, but some bodies are just more injury prone, I […]
Let the grass season begin
It’s time to get the grass shoes out and pray for sun. This is the grass season in tennis, courtesy of ATP World Tour website: Interesting questions to ponder: Can Wawrinka play well on grass courts after his fantastic French Open performance? Will Djokovic’s confidence be hampered after the surprising loss at Roland Garros? Can […]
Stan the Champ
It didn’t go five sets, but was still a fantastic battle. I don’t know if I should be surprised that Stan the Man Wawrinka overpowered the world number one in four sets: 4-6 6-4 6-3 6-4, but I’m definitely IMPRESSED. How did he beat the almost supernaturally talented Djokovic? He played with more aggression and […]
Great fight, but Nole too good
It was going to be three sets. Djokovic had won two sets rather convincingly and had three break points in the third set. He was simply too good for a rather subdued Murray. But the wind picked up, Andy started to pump his fist for every point, and suddenly the super solid Djokovic started to […]
Djokovic destroys Nadal
Sounds a bit drastic to say that when the first set was so competitive, but to me the scoreline was never in doubt. Nadal lacked depth on his groundstrokes from the start and Djokovic raced to a 4-0 lead. But Nadal relaxed a bit after getting one of the service breaks back and Djokovic started […]
Federer outgunned in the wind
Federer had a great draw and seemed to be in form. He looked destined to be in the final. But the competition is sterner these days and Stan Wawrinka seems to be back in good form after a slump. In very windy conditions (unfavourable for Federer usually), Wawrinka was the best player and won in […]
Nadal vs Djokovic etc
Yeah, the Roland Garros quarter-finals 2015 is all about what should really be a final, 9-time winner Nadal vs world number one and clay-court nemesis, Djokovic. But there are other matches too of course. This is what you need to watch: Tsonga vs Nishikori Cowabonga Tsonga is back in good shape and being the remaining […]
The Hardest Worker on Court
The headline gives it away of course. It’s obvious I’m talking about David Ferrer. He has just won the fifth set against spectacular Italian Simone Bolelli by the scoreline of 6-3 1-6 5-7 6-0 6-1. Yes, in the last two sets he lost one game. And Bolelli didn’t make endless unforced errors (which he’s prone […]
First day at Roland Garros
It was a pretty eventful first day at the French Open. Federer beat Falla handily 6-3 6-3 6-4, but was still annoyed. Why? Because the tournament’s security had once again let him down when a fan had entered the court during his match to take a picture with him. Apparently it had happened at practice […]
