This was so expected. Harrison is typical hard court player and Dusan is solid on hard court. He is the best on clay.

 

Harrison is bad and btw mentally weak. Every time i've seen him play he was terrible, i thought it was nice chance for Lajović to show us did he really improved and I see now he didn't.

I watched first set and Dusan was disaster. For second I don't know.

Fritz surprisingly lost against Tiafoe ...

I think Zverev will have the same fate against Dodig.

 

On the womens side Beck is pretty close to qualify for the Olympics, this would mean that Lisicki and or Görges will miss Rio. :cry:

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

Well, Tiafoe has already had positive H2H with Fritz, I think it is 2-0 or 3-0 at junior level. Fritz apparently was under pressure as favourite for the win, big stage... he was rushing on many balls. First two sets were identical, with losers of them committing many errors, low serve percentage. But nevertheless, there were some great flashes from both. 

 

Zverev definitely has tough task, and he'll need to step up in order to win. 

 

The race is not over, though I am afraid Lisicki will definitely miss Rio. Upcoming period of year is not the one Sabine fancies the most.

Jesus, Ymer lost to Middelkoop :facepalm: Since Caltanisetta title last year, his results are really up and down with no some outstanding flash... I guess we'll need to wait for clay season. Curiously, his younger brother Mikael is much better on hard and fast courts.

    • I remember when I was a child and I was on holiday with my parents in Tunisia, I think in 1999? We were on a trip to the desert near the border with Algeria. The guide said something like that: Algeria is a few minutes from here but we won't go there because there is a war going on there and it's not safe.
    • Netanyahu is bad but unfortunately Hamas helps him maintain power. Every attack they make is a reinforcement of Netanyahu's rhetoric about the country's security, etc. In the fall of 2023, Netanyahu was already losing support and then suddenly a big Hamas attack on a festival near the Gaza Strip. Coincidence? It wouldn`t surprise me at all if Netanyahu knew about the plan for this attack but did nothing so that he would then have the tools to maintain his power. I also remember Ariel Sharon - he was probably even more radical than Netanyahu but he had a brain hemorrhage and fell into a coma.
    • Ah yes, post-colonial bickering never gets too old. Let me grab my popcorn!   Netanyahu is on a personal revenge mission to avenge his brother's death for his entire political life and people still act like they're surprised by his actions
    • MId-1962.  Almost all the Jews were driven out in a few days, even though they had been living there since Classical, pre-Muslim times.   Perhaps our friend could give us details of of any current Algerian plans to welcome them back, restore their property, guarantee their safety etc etc?    
    • In what year did Algeria free itself from French influence? 1960, exactly?
    • Or better, perhaps he'd like to tell us what happened to the 140,000 Jews who were living in Algeria in 1960, as against the 200 who live there now? 
    • There are still many people of Jewish origin in Central and Eastern Europe who have nothing to do with the state of Israel. What ties does Zelensky have to the state of Israel? Apart from he waś there as president of Ukraine and speaking in the Knesset? Nothing. In the power circles in Moscow there were/are many people of Jewish origin and what about that? A large part of the power apparatus of the USSR was based on Jews, especially in the years shortly after WWII.   Instead of constantly writing about Jews, would be better to tell me which country Algeria has better diplomatic relations with: Tunisia or Egypt?  
    • Handy guide for the perplexed.  
    • I`m a bit disappointed with the starts of the Italian team. I was counting on progress from last year. And here it looks like Bagnis is still very uneven. In Cortina there will be 3 competitions with medals to win and it would be a shame not to use our track to win 1-2 medals. The same goes for luge.
    • On the other hand Errani's serve doesn't make Paolini's task any easier... But Paolini is in a such good shape here, though, that I hope she wins her first title in the old Fed Cup. For Errani, it will be 4: 2009, 2010, 2013. So far, Roberta Vinci has 4 titles with Italy.
