Monte-Carlo Update

Whooo! Dude he's lookin' strong ;)

People say he's in a title drought, but the King of Clay is back and has been in stellar form! Even the ATP World Tour website has said "Rafa in scary form" LOL. Anyway, Thursday was no different as he used his wand-in-the-shape-of-a-racquet and zapped Michael Berrer 60 61.

In the QF the King will next face Juan Carlos Fererro - another Spaniard/pro clay courter - who killed Tsonga in a similar way 61 36 75, although he sorta had to grip the wand a bit tighter and shout the magical spell...

Aww... Tsonga is so cute in this picture.

Nalbandian raced to the QFs by straight sets through Tommy Robredo while Phillip Kohlschreiber whooshed past fellow German Phillip Petzschner 63 64. Wow I'm starting to feel Harry Pottery...

The No.1 Seed - the Djoker - prevailed 64 64 over Stanislas Wawrinka (newly crowned Casablanca Champ) in the 4th Round, but had a bit of a tough go too, pulling off a Patronus Charm in the end ;)

Albert Montanes (the guy I remember for being a little shorter than the others) upset Cilic 64 64 apparently, who I think is kinda awesome so I posted a pic of him... while David Ferrer, 60 76 (4), and Fernando Verdasco, 57 63 63, also won... meaning that the QFs are... 5-eighths Spanish! :D

Peace out.
