Roddick.   Doparawdy zadziwiajÂące...

Wczoraj na korcie obok trenowaÂł jakiÂś facet i tak mi Seppiego przypominaÂł. Widocznie siĂŞ zapatrzyÂł na nasz mecz, bo ja teÂż graÂłem nieÂźle, ale statystyka Bp wynosiÂła jakieÂś 2/13 i byÂły to zazwyczaj przeÂłamania powrotne WÂłoch mĂłgÂł zrobiĂŚ Nadalowi wiĂŞkszÂą krzywdĂŞ, ale niestety sporo swoich szans przegapiÂł. ZaskoczyÂł mnie rafa tym, Âże kilka razy w trudnych momentach aplikowaÂł po asie, by serwisem zaÂżegnaĂŚ niebezpieczeĂąstwo. Generalnie Nadal gra Âśrednio (jednak lepiej niÂż w Kanadzie), na PHM zapewne wystarczy.
Co do Roddicka to, podobnie jak Bizon, czuÂłem, Âże bĂŞdzie to trudny mecz. Niemniej 2-setowa poraÂżka zaskoczyÂła. Widocznie kukurydziany Sam nie rezygnuje z walki o USO Series
