In reply to: Raj Dugi posted an update in the group Pro Tennis Talk I was watching the raonic match with harrisson at sap open, san jose. very impressed with how well he is doing now when compared to last year. big difference. […] ViewWho would you guys say could give up his Top 10 spot to make room for Milos? 5 to 10 are: Ferrer, Tsonga, Berdych, Fish, Tipsarevic and Del Potro. The only guy I think Milos can consistently beat at the moment is Tipsaevic, who I’m surprised is No. 9. 11 to 15 are: Almagro, Simon, Isner, Monfils and Gasquet. I believe he’ll be in this 11…[Read more]

Pro Tennis Talk 6 days, 18 hours agoMilos gave a smart radio interview for the tournament in San Jose. He was smart, the hosts, Razor and Mr. T., not so much. I’ve attached the podcast page below. I can’t seem to zero in on the exact podcast, but it’s under the above hosts’ name:

But Llodra is reeeeealy good. Much improved in singles, also. Thanks to Mauresmo, I hear.

Pro Tennis Talk 1 week, 2 days ago · updated 1 week, 2 days agoI must have missed the intrecate strategy. Why is Raonic not playing Tsonga this tournament? Neither the first match nor this do-or-die singles match. Poor Dancevic is the proverbial lamb.

Ok. This explains the last match:

LOL. Any chance you can stop by the store next week and show me how to access tennis programming via browser?

Are you wanting a link to the Davis Cup? Not sure what access you’re needing, but here’s the link:

Brent:
you can watch live streaming here, i think they may charge a fee for that.

I have also seen for free on tsn.ca (the australian open, some matches were broadcast online, great picture, smooth streaming)
Thanks,

Pro Tennis Talk 1 week, 3 days ago · updated 1 week, 3 days agoWow. Milos needs to work on his doubles, especially if Team Canada is looking at this pairing for the Olympics. A bit of a leadfoot out there, kinda reminding me of Herman Munster.

He wasn’t the best at doubles. That’s for sure.

Canada: Frank Dancevic, Daniel Nestor, Vasek Pospisil & Milos Raonic France: […] ViewNever underestimate the ambivalence of the French. If the Canadians can take an early lead, sometimes guys like Monfils just go away. Llodra, too. He can get down on himself. If Simon were there, different story. He’s the scrappiest one of all.
Do you have a big crew going?

If the French are disinterested, I feel they’ll have a shot. But pound for pound, that’s a mighty good squad from France.
Am I wrong about this? (hope so)

Not the one I wanted. Gutted.

I didn’t stay up to watch it. I did catch some during the day today at work. It looked like a good match though. Rafa needs to go back to the drawing board again :p Or else it’s just a match up that doesn’t work in his favor. Like how Fed just can’t get past Rafa.

yeahhh! As great as it was to be there, I did find the energy a little lacking! I couldn’t tell if it was just me or what but the first day of singles was a little blah for me ha ha.

Tsonga was pretty awesome to watch. He moves really well for a big guy but that’s no surprise. Pospisil did a couple really good drops shots that I was sure he would never get to and not only did he run them down, he got it back over with interest. Dancevic has a pretty decent first serve, when he got it in and even the kick second serve…[Read more]
