Order of Play Friday

Matches include:

Gonzalez vs Safin
El Aynaoui vs. Del Potro
Mathieu vs. Cilic
Lee vs. Bolelli

That's a tough test for Safin against presumably the tournament favourite... I see he's lost the last four ATP matches against Gonzalez, though he did beat him in that strange Kooyong thing at the start of the year.

Of course you never know with Marat... :wacko:

Pleasing to see El Aynaoui there. :)

yeah, definitely a toughie for marat - although gonzo hasn';t been doing brilliantly this year, so we'll see.....here's hoping :pray:

i guess hope took a holiday :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

and the Maroccan is through to his first semi in god knows how long... :)

Order of Play Saturday

Starting 1pm:
[1] P Mathieu (FRA) vs S Bolelli (ITA)
[2] F Gonzalez (CHI) vs [Q] Y El Aynaoui (MAR)

Delighted he's got this far but Younes will do well to avoid :bread: today I fear... :(

... though he may be consoled by a fair-sized cheque and jumping the best part of 100 places in the rankings :ok:

Singles - Semifinals
S Bolelli (ITA) d [1] P Mathieu (FRA) 76(1) 46 76(4)
[2] F Gonzalez (CHI) d [Q] Y El Aynaoui (MAR) 36 64 63

so, your finalists are:

Singles - Final
S Bolelli (ITA) vs [2] F Gonzalez (CHI)

(not before 3.00pm)

Bolelli ended up losing 6-7(4) 7-6(4) 3-6

But he did great to get back from 0-3 down in the second set breaker. Hitting 2 stunning backhands in a row.

And he's so near to being top 50 where he belongs. I told you guys a year ago in Miami he's be top 30 one day, I really hope he proves me right..... :pray:
