I am out!

I lost to tdbches in 3 sets 3-6 7-6 6-7 I used Fish against his Murray.

Tough match with lost of lag and a 10 minute break prompted by tdbches after second set.

I quickly dropped my serve in first game, but regained composure and was pushing all the way through, holding quite comfortably till the rest of the match. After winning second set tie break with 7-4, I felt good going into the third, knowing I had plenty of chances to break in the previous set. But then came a break that disrupted what ever little momentum I had, especially so on returns....so it was time for another time break. I lost that one 7-3.

It was not easy to rally with Murray, but I think I did well in those and won majority of the short rallies. Sorry, no stats or replay. Next time I will try to remember to get them.

I had actually a good draw to go deep in this one, blew it. Hope Slicer can take it now!

Will do man. Just not sure what level Rodrigues is on. For the rest its easy.

Indiantonike(Tsonga) def. G.Dimitrov (Goffin) 6/4 6/4

Great baseline play from his side and poor game from me! Before 3-4 days I played great matches with goffin vs Ugadalou, Robbin and etc. But today I played very poor. Maybe my poor game is coming from that - from 1-2 days I'm playing only with Berdych(I don't know why ) and his style and Goffin's style are very different - berdych have great serve, he is very slow and maybe the greatest baseline player - on the other side goffin is very fast and he is better on the net, but his baseline play is a way worse that berdych. I didn't find my best play in the whole match, so I was very annoyed. Bad volleying, serving and defend play opposing the great server and baseline player like Indiantonike was in this match.

Good luck Indiantonike, if you play like this - I think that you can win the title in Uzbekistan!

[SlicerITST]

I did not really like using Goffin at all in my match. He is quick yes but i couldnt finish a point quickly. I should really stick to the big hitters. Thats more my playstyle. Points as quick as possible so there is less time for me to **** up.

Indiantonike def vlad449 7/6 - 7/5

A really tought match again with vlad ! This time I got my revenge

In the first set, I got 1 break point when I was leading 2-1. He saved it, and nothing particular happen in this set. We both played very well on our serve. I even served 76% of 1st serve. I think it was the first time I served like that During the set tie break, he got the first mini break and led 3-0. Then I come back to 3-2 with my serves, got 2 mini break to lead 3-4, 3-6, and finally 4-6.

Second set was exactly the same until 3-2. At this point, he broke me on his 2nd break point. The next game, I had 2 opportunies to immedialty break back, but he saved them. 5-2. I had no problem coming back to 5-3. At 30-30, I won the point and had a break point. For the first time in 5 sets against him, I managed to win one of mine break points (1/8 i think ...). And finally, I managed to break him one more time to turn around the second set !

That gonna be my first finale on the tour

[djarvik]

Indiantonike - you have improved a lot. I remember winning once against you in a close set, but never since. Starting last weekend you play on a different level man, good luck for the final.
