Exciting Matches Await In The Rome, Italy Masters
Exciting Matches Await In The Rome, Italy Masters | 
Rome. Tennis. Vittorio Selmi … I’m indulging in word association…. If you don’t know Vito Selmi then I’m sorry for you… Without a doubt he is a large part of the reason the ATP World Tour exists. Vittorio is a great friend of Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal… I think Vito was the reason that “the boys” always showed each other such great respect and have a true fondness for each other…. Vito lives in Rome and always shows the players true Italian hospitality. (Count on Max Mirnyi sharing a pasta dinner )…
ROME. TENNIS. I’m looking at the men’s singles draw. There are some tough match ups: Nadal has a bye then plays the winner of a Qualies and Bellucci. Wow. Bellucci sure gave the Djoker a scare. He is coached by Larry Pasos the coach of Gustavo Kuerton.
Karlovic vs .Cilic playing for the champs of Croatia…
Bagdatis vs Tsonga and the winner faces Federer ….
Two Qualies play each other. That’s always fun. A qualifier vs a qualifier…
There’s two spots in the draw where a q plays a q. Weird. …the winner in the other side faces Djokovic…
Xavier malisse vs Garcia-Lopez with the winner playing Andy Murray….(Did he trim his fro yet ?)..
Alexander Dolgopolov plays Potito Starace…
Andy Roddick plays Giles Simon…
Fernando Verdasco plays Milos Raonic….
Sam Querrey plays Kevin Anderson…
I’m closing with the famous 10sballs.com position on Mens Doubles. The current scoring system stinks. The luck factor plays too big a role. Two mens semis today in Madrid were decided by the dumb third breaker …if you split sets.(So you each have one real set ) Then the first to ten. …Bob and Mike Bryan beat John Isner and Sam Querrey 12-10 in “third thingie ” and Llodra and Zimonjic beat Cilic and Ljubicic 12-10 ….
