btw apparently (according our medias, so not sure it´s absolutely true :p) Kližan today with his 6th ATP title equaled Ernests Gulbis in the record books for most championship singles match victories without a loss (6 Finals played - 6 wins) in the history of the ATP World Tour.

 

but we must add also that in the doubles he has a record of 4 finals - 4 wins, at least in something tis guy is 100%  :p

That's a pretty odd record.

I never thought I'd say this sentence, but a Slovak guy just won the Kitzbuhel. :p ...pity in the "wrong" sport though :d

 

but anyway, congrats Kližo for the 6th ATP title (by this he now equaled Dominik Hrbatý in the amount of ATP tour titles in the top of SVK ranking)

 

ps. btw this was his 6th careers final and 6th win. I´ll never understand his head. never :lol:

Another Slovak makes it a great week for Slovakian tennis. Another Martin, with the first name Andrej, won the challenger tournament in Liberec :CZE.

  :SVK:cheer:

:GRE Tsitsipas beat Anderson :woohoo: Amazing! What a streak of top 10 wins!!! Thiem, Djokovic, Zverev and Anderson! :bowdown:

First Masters 1000 final! And damn luck, again top 10 player (most likely). Too bad, looks like the winning streak will be over. But still, this is great result! :cheer:

    • Unfortunate, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm looking forward to Thursday evening, when the team captain's meeting is over and we have our very first World Cup start list of the season. Always a cool moment to see who's there and everything  
    • Today I unpacked some of the boxes in which we have put my way too many books to move to our house, and I came across these beauty's I hadn't seen for a while     Absolutely recommended, tough to get for a decent price, but they are such an interesting read with lots of very interesting little stories! Still looking for at least 1900, 1904 and 1906, but not really in the right moment to spend money on that now, so the wait goes on  
    • Which I guess is part of why unfortunately 'our' first wild card attempt of the season was rejected last week  
    • The next chapter in the Krasnobaeva saga is upon us.   Looks like  Armenia have cut ties with her after only a few weeks. A person from their Federation has said, that they won't continue the relationship, because of her unprofessional and rude attitude towards the coaches and other officials. That includes: - having no respect to the coaches and their advise; - training without any motivation; - stops doing the routine and throws objects without any reason; - just lays on the floor and ignores the music.   When this was escalated with her mother, she mentioned that "Elvira has a strong temper and she was the same in Bulgaria and they tolerated her". Which of course is complete BS. If anyone attempted this shit here, they would be thrown out immediately.   And now  are wanting from her mother to return all finances they gave them, which she is refusing, so they will probably sue them. They will also inform other RG Federations about this situation, so they don't hire them.   My 2 cents on this is most likely Krasnobaeva was happy in BG and was forced out by her mother, so now she is sabotaging the move and be done with it.
    • Honestly Ruka is my favourite World Cup event of the whole season. Everybody is there. Later on there is always someone who skips one weekend or another . Not everybody takes part in Tour de ski. But here everyone shows up.
