Vamos Rafa!!!
The King of Clay reign supreme again in Roland Garros as he avenges last year loss to Robin Soderling. Rafael Nadal is also back to the no. 1 spot in the world rankings and is unbeaten throughout the whole clay court season this year (kinda of "Clay Slam")! What an amazing feat! Im wondering if Babolat is the reason players are successful of the red dirt??? Both Schiavione and Nadal uses 'em.....
Rafa now has 5 Roland Garros title just one shy of the 6 titles held by legendary Bjorn Borg!!
List of Victims:
2005: Mariano Puerta 6–7(6), 6–3, 6–1, 7–5
2006: Roger Federer 1–6, 6–1, 6–4, 7–6(4)
2007: Roger Federer 6–3, 4–6, 6–3, 6–4
2008: Roger Federer 6–1, 6–3, 6–0
2010: Robin Soderling 6–4, 6–2, 6–4
Vamos Rafa!! Lets move on the grass season which will be just as exciting as it seems pretty open with Roger Federer as favourite alongside Andy Roddick and Andy Murray. Nikolay Davydenko's return would be interesting to keep a close eye and of cuz Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic are the dark horses for the grass season!! Adios Amigos!!

Burghley Open
The much anticipated Burghley Open
The hangover of the previous night has gotten into us, but it doesn't stop us from waking up early. Burghley Open beckons in the morning but the rain stopped us from playing. Undeterred, we waited for the rain to stop and adjusted our booking into the afternoon. The sun was crazy, sapping our energy away fighting the heat more than against our opponents. But nothing can stop us from playing today. Not the tiredness, not the rain, not the sun and not even a spoiled shoe as Lan will tell you.

Hiatus from Sengkang ATP Masters
The final booking for Compass Heights just ended. The court will be under going some renovation and so now we are stuck with the unavailability of a regular court again.
Today's game was decent. The court was partially wet but it didn't stop us from playing some good rallies. My Head Youtek Radical is starting to show signs of its true potential. It felt ten times more comfortable than the first time I used it. My forehand has never felt this comfortable. The popping sound that accompanies every single groundstroke makes one orgase.
I'll leave you with some photos of today's game...
