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

 

Who knows how this motivates Adam or Andreas or whatever brother they can come up with  

[hckošice 16,613]

btw apparently (according our medias, so not sure it´s absolutely true ) 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%

That's a pretty odd record.

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

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

Yeah, great to see that our players are finally beginning to find their top shape on clay, this is good news now right just before the clay season´s start...oh, wait

[Wanderer 1,738]

Tsitsipas is in masters semifinal  Saved two match points in the second set tie-break. 

[LDOG 2,477]

Zverev and Dimitrov loss means Del Potro achieves career high number 3

[Wanderer 1,738]

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

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!
