Tommy haas vs del potro tonight is a must see match.

It could go the distance.

Yep, this is the match of the today.

They're in the middle of a rain delay in the first SF, so Haas/DP could start late.

Hi everyone,

The Rogers Cup Montreal doubles draw is out, and Rafael Nadal/Pablo Andujar are indeed teamed up in the top half of the draw. But they've been slotted to play two other Spaniards right away. Their first round match is against David Ferrer/Feliciano Lopez.

Andy Murray is also playing doubles in the top half with Colin Fleming and they will play Benneteau/Zimonjic in the first round. They could meet Nadal/Andujar in the QF round if both teams make it through the second round.

No1e Djokovic is not playing doubles this year.

The Bryan brothers are the top seeds with 2nd seeds Granollers/M. Lopez slotted in the bottom half of the draw.

Other notable singles players playing doubles this week include Tomas Berdych, Stan Wawrinka, Tommy Haas, Grigor Dimitrov, Alex Dolgopolov, and Fabio Fognini.

Respectfully,
masterclass

que pasa general masterclass.


let me put it this way general: nadal is a fool if he expects to do well in singles here with doubles hanging on his shoulders.

he is wasting valuable/critical time that he could be using to work on his return of serve and his backhand.


doubles does not work for him. and now it can only mean compounding the knee issues.

I think you're wrong to get after Rafa for playing doubles. It's just a good hit-around for him, and he'll drop out if he goes deep in singles. Everything is about tuning up for the USO, and he has no points to defend. I doubt he takes the doubles seriously.

I am just worried about the knee princess moxie. he has a tendency to play too much in a hurry.

also he tends to play doubles from the baseline.

finally you don't really get to serve much or even practice return of serve much.


believe me. I know. I played doubles strictly for social purposes if and when I played it. it did not do anything for my singles game at all.

I could just go out and get a ton out of a 2-3 hour targeted practice session than I ever could out of a doubles match.

If you are planning to reveal out some of the interesting facts related to the ancient times, then you must immediately pack up your bags and rush to the shores of Scotland which is very popular all across the world for its ancient castles and palaces.


Today, Scotland is one of the most visited places of the world because it is densely crowded with a large number of historic palaces and castles. Scotland is the largest metropolises of the United Kingdom which is full of unrevealed facts related to the medieval periods.


Edinburgh is the capital city of Scotland which is very much famous as the home to a large number of ancient castles and landmarks. The Edinburgh Castle which is sited at the centre of the city is the one and only marvelous piece of structure which remind us of the well skilled ancient architecture. It is believed that the Edinburgh Castle was build up during the 12th century after the Scottish war. The castle was build up during the royal residence of King David I. This ancient castle proved to be the home for the royal families till the middle of 16th century.

It is still believed that the Edinburgh Castle proved out to be a site of conflict for most of the wars related to the Scottish independence. The most interesting fact related to this ancient and historic Edinburgh Castle is that this castle was constructed by the craters of the volcano. This ancient castle comprises so many historical facts that no other castle can compete with it. The Edinburgh Castle clearly highlights the Edinburgh sky laps and the pleasurable atmosphere of Scotland.
