- SOME NEWS FROM DOWN UNDER ON THE HOPMAN CUP
-
- i am now currently watching the Men's game of Switzerland vs. Spain
- in which Swiss Davis Cup player Claudio Mezzadri (atp:97) is playing
- Emilo Sanchez (atp:21). The score to date is :
-
-
- spain - sanchez
- 4 5
- 6 2
- switzerland - mezzadri
-
- mezzadri, seems to have faltered after his first set, sanchez has not
- played any match for about 4 weeks, where as mezzadri has played a 3
- setter against japan''s yamamoto (i think!!) also, the hopman cup is
- played on either a hard-court or rebound ace not a clay court.
-
- In the earlier women's match, Manuela Malleva-Frag. lost 6-1 0-6 3-6
- to spain's arantxa sanchez
-
- tonite is the debut of the usa's malavai washington and mary joe
- fernandez.
-
- tommorrow (tues) the czech. republic play australia . the czech's are
- seeded second.
- and on tues. nite, a great 3 matches with ukraine vs. germany!!
- michael stich and steffi will strut their stuff. but be wary of andrei
- medvedev, his record against stich is "0-0" and had an impressive
- straight sets win against top 20 player thomas muster of holland
- yesterday. medvedev is similar to ivanisevic in his style of play,
- except he is somewhat less emotional. at only 18, see him rising as a
- real future star.
-
-
- cheers
