Will keep an eye on Giraldo, I think he beat someone of note in the Australian Open.
Gulbis (my favourite out of the younger generation) doing a bit better of late. Reached the QF at Barcelona losing to Verdasco. Expected him to put up more of a fight. Now he has beaten Baghdatis 2 and 2. I think he's got amazing potential but it doesn't translate into his performances.

Why couldn't he have landed in Murray's quarter or something?

Lleyton Hewitt was up a set and break vs. Youzhny.
Gave up the second set, and at 3-3 in the third set he yells out to himself "PLAY YOUR ****ING GAME MATE" after he got into a slice-fest with Youzhny.
Commentators then say "We have to apologise for that. A little bit of anglo-saxon from the Australian"

Massive win for him after some awful results in Houston and Barcelona. Got lucky early as Youzhny looked really off - particularly when volleying - but played some fine tennis later and got some good time on court. Hopefully he carries that into a win against GGL, but I can't see him beating Verdasco from there.
Think the doubles in Barcelona really helped him, too.

Have such a man-crush on Łukasz Kubot these days. That Wikipedia photo...
Would consider turning.
In all reality, can't wait until he starts putting some consistent tennis together. Capable of being at least top thirty for mine.

Where's Gustavo Kuerten these days?

Virat Kohli (c)
Since retirement he has settled down in his place of birth, the Brazilian island of Florianopolis, where he enjoys being an active member of life in the lakeside town of Lagoa da Conceição. He still enjoys teaching and playing tennis with the local enthusiasts and is known to enjoy some sake after a match down at the local Mexican restaurant Cafe do Sol. In his hometown, he is known as the "Cachorro Grande" (literally Big Dog but "Big Cheese" is a term more commonly used in the English language).
He is an avid surfer and can sometimes be seen surfing at Praia Brava where he has an apartment.
Kuerten has been accepted to a drama course on Ceart, Center of Arts at UDESC - Santa Catarina State University in Florianópolis. He began his studies there on February 16, 2009.[3][4]

Kuerten recently played at Miami during the Sony Ericsson Open in a fund-raising exo for the Chile earthquake victims.

Gave up a huge lead early which is disappointing.
Wish Almagro would stfu with this grunting well after he's hit the ball, too.

Fed down in the 2nd set vs. Gulbis 1-4. Won the first 6-2 though.
If he loses his first singles match on clay this season, wow.
Would be a huge scalp for Gulbis, but I'm sure he'll go down in the third like he did last time.
Still, Federer start caring about Masters 1000's you prick.
