Same here Floydy, when tennis finishes up for the season I am going to in a bit of trouble until it starts back up again because most of my focus has been on that and nothing else really. Starting to get back into NBA, but that is just tocover the gap until tennis starts again.

Anyways my tip for tonight is Safin in straight sets. Safin was pretty impressive once again and is managing to keep his emotions in check most of the time. The only problem is that he twisted his ankle last night - didn't really seem to affect him that much, but it could be a concern.

Last night was Stepaneks final and he was very emotional when he won - I am expecting a big let down from him tonight. Stepanek also had to come through qualifying which means he has played three extra matches compared to safin(1st rd bye). After his emotional win last night I think fatigue will be a factor for him. Stepanek did beat Safin in 3 sets the last time they played, but Safin has clicked his game up a few gears since then and I am pretty sure stepanek hasn't.

Good punting tonight and I hope you get a winner!
