They do not have much luck with the draws this week as well. Ani-VSP are playing second seeds All American team of Lammons and Withrow this week at Dallas ATP 250. Lammons and Withrow were runner up last year in this tournament beating Yuki and Saketh in the semi finals. Nothing to worry. They will...

Sahaja cannot get a break in these draws :( I guess she has to keep mixing it up. Play lower level tournaments were she should dominate. And then play these tournaments where once in while, she gets an easy draw to move up. Unfortunately none of these players really dominate 25k/50k challengers. So...

Can we have more smilies?

Things relevant 3 decades ago are no longer relevant today. Hardly six weeks of grass tennis in the year. Hence, we need to move to hard courts and clay courts. Likes of Sumit proves we have the technique to do well on clay courts. If low uneven courts are the main reason why our players struggled, ...

Sriram Balaji (IND) beat Aqeel Khan (PAK) 7-5, 6-3 We are up 2-0. While I agree Balaji is almost out of singles, RamK struggling against Aisam was hard to digest. Aisam was never a very good singles player. They said the court bounce was low. Maybe that hurt RamK. But I think that should have helped...

RamK saved 15-40 2BPs and held. Phew... 67(3) 44 Ok heard it from the Horse's mouth 15 40, just went big , just big with 2 aces to level it to duece. And not only an inspired opponent but more daunting was the crowd , never had seen such a partisan crowd it was exactly like Kargil our army climbing...

They can play challgers all round the year. Should they get direct entry into a ATP tournament, they should play it. The ranking volatility can be managed.

First round loss is roughly $3400 for the pair. Win in India might give them double of that. Costs in India are lower. So I guess economics suggest they should come to India. However, they need to go deep in India every week, as even one win tilts the equation in favour of the ATP tour game. This we...

Yes that analogy works.

But no denying as a 16 year old, these are highly encouraging results. I hope he is working on his fitness too.

I hope he gets the respect on this board. :D Rohan always got respect here, except during his spat with the big ego Leander. Even then, many like be supported him. So not fair to say he didn't get support here. There are forum members who love Leander, no matter what. I believe that's their right t...

Last year Rohan lost in first round. So all points of AO gets added....

Make a rule. Can't have more than one foreign striker in club level match, whether it's isl or any local league....

Sumit wins first set 6-2

He needs to be careful. His opponent is making too many errors. He cannot be complacent.

They were wr 25. So if we held them till 50 mins, it's good. Our defending was good. The keeper did a great job.

Attack looks weakish

Sumit wins

,6-4, ,6-4
