It has been miserable day for the Albiceleste representative in Day 3 of the Australian Open. Blame it on the surface, I supposed!!!
Agustin CALLERI had a black & white day as he lost in the singles event to Stefan KOUBEK of Austria 3-6, 6-7 & 6-7. He did manage to redeem himself in the men’s double event, alongside Juan Pablo BRZEZICKI, as they defeated the pairing of John ISNER (USA) & Ivo KARLOVIC (CRO) 7-6 & 6-3.
Here are other results of the day.
Men’s Double
Jose ACASUSO/Sergio ROITMAN lost to Werner ESCHAUER(AUT)/Florian MAYER(GER) 4-6 & 4-6
Maximo GONZALEZ/Juan MONACO lost to Bob/Mike BRYAN (USA) 3-6 & 2-6
In Day 4, David NALBANDIAN will once again face the crowd as he is up against another Aussie, this time Peter LUCZAK.
Juan Martin DEL POTRO is expected to face a tough encounter against the experienced Spaniard David FERRER.
The other fixture of the day will see Juan MONACO taking on Amer DELIC from the USA.
MONACO is through to the third round after beating American Amer DELIC in 5 sets.
ReplyDeleteHe won the first, lost the second, won the third, lost the fourth and won 8-6 in the fifth one.
Well done to PICO.
DEL POTRO is playing now (trailing 4-3 in the first set) against Spaniard David FERRER.
And NALBANDIAN will face P. LUCZAK later on (when I'll probably be sleeping...)
