And even more woe for Ferrer.
After losing the 2nd set 0-6 he has dropped he 1st service game in the last.
7 games on the spin for the French lad.

Double break for the Fench lad now as he wins his 9th straight game.
3-0 with his serve to come!

That's poor for no 3. Especially if you want to remain no 3.
I don't think he will stay #3. Roddick and Gonzalez are better now, IMO. But, I think he will stay in the top 6.

The crazy thing is that the top 4 seeds have already fallen. Ferrer is the 5th seed and he's going down.

Ferrer finally stops the rot after losing 10 straight games. And he was a break point down in the game he held.
A matter of time I think. 4-1 to the French lad with his serve to come next.

Gicquel v Gasquet could be a really good match. Gicquel has been playing very solid tennis. He's an unusual player because he is almost 30 but he is still getting better. Late bloomer I guess. The match will be the old man v the kid.

Eat that.
After being a break up and losing the first set 4-6 Bennetaeu wins 12 of the next 13 games including 10 on the bounce to win 4-6 - 6-0 - 6-1
Great stuff!

Yeah 11 hour ahead from End of Sep - End of March 9 hours ahead for the other 6 months. Give a take a week or so depending on when they decide to change the clocks
