Me too...You know why? Because the attitude of " I am showing no emotions either way, so I will not give my opponent any chance to see how I feel one way or the other.." has run its course and is not working any more. Maybe it is time to go the other way...what does he have to lose?

I suppose the silver lining is that the double faults point to him being a bit more aggressive, which could lead to greater confidence. This is definitely the best I've seen him play since early in the year. Even if he loses to del Potro, he'll be tough in Paris and at the WTF and, I think, will be stronger next year. Probably not 2012 strong, but at least not "Shankerer."
