Wavrinka Beats Federer & Wins Monte Carlo Masters
It was the first all-Swiss final in since 2000 when Rosset beat Federer and again Federer had to be the runner-up after Wavrinka came back from a first set loss with the scoreline: 4-6 7-6 6-2 in Wavrinka’s favour. For a Fed fan every loss hurts, especially when it’s in tournaments he’s never won before, […]
All-Swiss Final – Federer vs Wavrinka
It’s the first time since Federer lost to Rosset in Marseille 2000 that we have an all-Swiss final on the ATP Tour. That will take place after Wavrinka played a solid match in beating a likely tired David Ferrer 6-1 7-6 and an inspired Federer killed the hopes of the Serbian fans with his 7-5 […]

Coming into the quarter-finals you saw four big favorites: Wavrinka, Nadal, Federer and Djokovic. Wavrinka got tested against “Missile” Milos Raonic, but came through in the end 7-6 6-2.

Fed Express Arrives in Monte Carlo
Someone must have wound up Federer’s Rolex so he thought he had little time on court before an important appointment, because he raced to 5-0 in the style of someone fashionably in a hurry to win. Stepanek didn’t have time to do any of his usual funky moves before he found himself down a set […]

Fabio Houdini, I mean Fognini
In the first round of the Monte Carlo Masters Fabio Fognini took a Sunday (really Monday) walk, as he usually does in matches, and suddenly found himself down 7-5 5-2 30-0 against talented clay-courter Joao Sousa. Then he seemed to tell himself to stop walking and start running and suddenly he had turned the match […]
