They should move his match to center court after Murray....I suppose the still can...if they don't best case gulbis gets 2 sets in....it'll never finish today


And these ladies should play best of 1 set and never be on a court higher than 10

For the finals they could play race to 10 games and only play points during men's changeovers

I realize this may be considered blasphemy but Gulbis has been talked about at nauseating levels.

Gulbis grew up in a life of wealth. What has he won on the ATP tour? 3 singles titles to my knowledge on hard surface, some doubles, Delray beach...

I understand people have favorites and are fans of players/teams so that's cool.

hey bleed your comment on that LOL

Haas: "U have to earn everything. U can't buy ATP pts to buy ur ranking. It's not possible; otherwise Gulbis would be No. 1 in the world."

I'm just a fan

An he's good for the tour....breathes some life into a stuffy at times tour...kinda like Tsonga....guess that's why they r my favs


And I watch him play he has top 5 game when he wants it and he has dedicated himself which he currently is doing...

An he can beat the top 5 guys on any given day like Tsonga while guys ahead of him like a querry Raonic isner tipsarevic nishikori, etc. don't have his talent and will never be higher than what they are....I can assure you those top guys would rather see any of the other guys I mentioned than gulbis because he's an enigma....he can fall flat on his face or win playing the best level tennis you'll see on tour...again like Tsonga...for me it's watching a guy who has enough talent to be top 10/5 climb the rankings and isn't free to speak his mind and lighten up the tour....


Go go gulbis

I can appreciate that. I tend to root for those that i see as dedicated to excellence. :toast: to Gulbis making it happen. I hope i get that feeling so i can reap some rewards.

He hasn't won anything, but I've made a bunch off him, and hopefully more in this next match. I'm not a fan of anyone, really, but I enjoy watching Gulbis play more than almost any male player. I really like the way he plays, the way he serves, his strategy, and the fact that he plays better under pressure. Generally I find women's matches are harder fought than men's. Look at Almagro today for example. He's grown soft and lazy. He's playing a guy with a head full of beanbag stuffing and he can't be bothered to move his feet to get in position to make the best shot. His half-assed uncaring swipes cost me money, and I resent that. Probably fucked my parlay too. Too much money, living the good life. Being #10 is good enough. Ernests HAD that money to start with, and he may not practice because he's partying, but when he's on the court he tries as hard as he can - see that match against Nadal earlier this year, the top men's match of 2013 in my opinion, going by pure quality of play. Gulbis is a unique and interesting character. That's all.

At least Serena is a realist

When asked about a potential battle of the sexes against Andy Murray she said she doubted she would win a point

But then said she would do it if she could hit to doubles court and he could only hit to singles

Andy Murray wants the match to take place in Vegas

And then Djok said he would play Sharapova. His handicap should be he has to play her AS sharapova. Now that would be some quality entertainment.

Best thing Serena has said in a while.

Well back to watching the most lopsided thing on today, G.Zimmerman vs. T.martin

Grega Zemlja (SLO) def. Grigor Dimitrov (BUL) [29] 3-6 7-6(4) 3-6 6-4 11-9


There seems to be some people on Madjacks that were talking about how great Dimitrov is and what an amazing future he has. And some guy named kickserv has been saying on here how he is a ton of hype.

But we don't want to mention any names about those on here that are hyping Dimitrov.

Nope...we do not want to mention any names:facepalm:

some wishful thinking of adding another match under roof today:

If the refs are planning to put another match under the roof, they'll be delighted with Andy Murray's all-business performance so far. Up a double break, he leads 4-1.


upset city:

Only 10 of the Top 10 men?s and women?s seeds (6 men/4 women) have reached the 3rd round here. This is the joint-worst performance by Top 10 seeds at any Grand Slam event in the Open Era

kinda like you with raonic

dimitrov has a much better chance of going somewhere on tour than raonic...you'd be silly to argue otherwise

and he's sleeping with sharapova while raonic is trying to get with nishikori
