Got nothing against Safin, just a bet with Roddick in it.

 

[roostersgal4eva]

fair enough

 

[Roddy]

Good game, but you always felt the A-Rod had his measure....

 

[Arcadion]

Yes! Go Roddick!

 

[Arcadion]

Safin has a better form so Safin in straight sets.

Oh yeah? So what happened?

 

[bus24]

Go the A-Rod

 

[red+black]

Safin has a better form so Safin in straight sets.

What a stupid call

Roddick's great for tennis. He is a top player, has a great sense of humour, and is always generous in his praise for an opponent who he has lost to. He's a breath of fresh air in a stuffy world of self-absorbed so-called "champions".

BTW: I don't include Federer in that group ... he IS a champion.

As people have said, Safin can beat anyone in the world, but he wont do it tonight. Roddick in four sets, with Safin taking the second.

You're a genius...

or was it a lucky guess???

Well said
Back to Marat, he is also great for the game. Always amusing to see how many pieces his racquet will be in
Need more headcases like him!

I thought that one would of gone to 5 sets, but Roddick just did it easy in the end.

That was a great match between two players. I'm a big Safin fan but I was very impressed by Roddick's performance.

Whether you like Roddick's personality or not you can't deny how much he's improved since Jimmy Connors came on board to coach him. Some of the shots Roddick was playing wasn't feasible for him even a year ago.
