French Open: Mondays Play

Yesterday saw a mixture of play and breaks for the weather, however we did see the conclusion of two very good matches. The World number one seed Federrer took on the unseeded Frenchman Benneteau. Benneteau did play some great tennis, but unfortunately fell foul of some of the not so great tennis, allowing Federrer to beat him in straight sets 6-4 7-5 7-5.

Other men’s games included Fernando Gonzalez from Chile who saw off Robby Ginepri 7-6 (7-4) 6-3 6-1. Incidentally Gonzalez is to play Federrer in the quarter finals. The French crowd were absolutely delighted with Gael Monfils as he despatched Croatia’s Ivan Ljubicic from the tournament 7-6 4-6 6-3 6-2.

It was a sad day in the Womens games for top seed Maria…

The Hamburg Masters, established in 1892, is an annual tennis tournament for male professional players held in Hamburg, Germany. The event is part of the ATP Masters Series on the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) Tour. The tournament is played on clay courts. It is currently held every year in May. Prior to the establishment of the Tennis Masters Series in the early-1990s, the event was known as the German Open.
It has been announced that, from 2009, the tournament will be downgraded from a Masters event, seriously hindering its ability to attract the top players.

In 2007, Carlos Moya and Lleyton Hewitt were surprise semi-finalists. This year, both the Spaniard and the Australian are determined to repeat their successful runs at Rothenbaum. “I like playing in Hamburg; I’ve had some very good results here in the past.” Last year, the 27-year-old from Adelaide cruised into the quarter-finals, defeating Juan Ignacio Chela, Nikolay Davydenko, and Nicolas Almagro on the way. In the semis, however, he fell to Rafael Nadal from Spain in a tough three set match. …

Tim Henman Special

There is a lot of speculation on how far will Tim Henman go in this year’s Wimbledon. He has after all not been in very good form of late, however despite this, he remains our only hope of getting a British Tennis player into the final. Unfortunately the odds are against him.
