    CTC had complete patience in the first game, then maybe a little too eager to shut up shop in the second and made enough mistakes to snowball into this performance. A shame.

    Smashing against lcw is not the way to win

    LCW's fitness level is not too bad to be able to win a punishing rally

    CTC's performance thus far would have beaten both the other semifinalist.

    CTC relies too much on his speed and raw power to win most of his matches, not so much on his technique which is not bad but not among the very best.

    Now for the pending pain of the Adcock flick serves getting smashed down.

    When G.Adcock served low yesterday (once) the crowd just laughed, that's how unexpected it is.

    Chris Adcock's lion tattoo on his left arm is a turn-off, I don't know why. Not that I dislike lions,on the contrary, but a tattoo is a different thing.
