Am I the only one who thinks the tournament website is cr@p?
Good results for the Germans here, with Kiefer knocking out 3rd seed Mathieu, and Schuettler taking out 7th seed Benneteau, both in straight sets. :clap:
Bjoern Phay is also through, meaning that all the Germans in the draw have made it to the second round. :)

gasquet or hewitt for this title please. but if the 1 or 2 seed is not interested, i'll take kiefer to surprise. great start yesterday knocking out mathieu rather easily :)

Gasquet will play his childhood hero Santoro in the semifinals.
Schuettler knocked out Hewitt! :o
The other German still left in the draw didn't fare so well though; Kiefer had to retire in his match against Olivier Rochus. :(
So it's
Gasquet-Santoro
Schuettler-Rochus
in the semis.

Gasquet has had a good run but he is so unpredictable that I would not put money on him even wih Hewitt out.
If he wins and gets a good run at Tokyo, he can easily get back on track to the Shangai race!!!

Gasquet took out Santoro 6-0 6-3. Schuettler, after knocking out Hewitt, disappointingly fell 4-6 4-6 to Rochus.

And Richard did it. He was the highest seed and did not falter. Certainly not a great opposition but delivering when everyone expects it is not that easy.
Now he is fully back in the Shangai race. :ok:

Gasquet takes the title 6-3 6-4 against Olivier Rochus.
Allez Richard!
As the ATP website notes, he has now won titles on all four surfaces. He has moved from 16th to 14th in the race --- what's more important, he is now less than thirty points behind current No. 8 Blake. A good run at one of the MS events would probably enable him to qualify for Shanghai ... but, as always with Gasquet, let's wait and see. :rolleyes:

Agreed! :ok:
Having Gasquet in the mix at Shanghai would definitely spice the contest up even more this year, as he is a really dangerous player on his day.
But let's not have Gasquet and Djokovic both in Roger's half, please ... :)
