Yup, this should take him into the top 40.<br />Myabe next year he can have a break through and get into the top 20.<br />He can be a little erratic, but from what I saw in that match he canplay well from all areas of the court.

Its funny though... I keep reading that he just reached his first tennis masters series semis...<br />However he reached the finals in Rome where Guga beat him.<br />Silly Media needs to get it straight! <img src="eek.gif" border="0">

Its great to see a young guy who can play well on more than one surface.<br />He has not had good results on clay, and indoors.<br />If I'm not correct his sole singles title came indoors at copenhagen 2000. This year he reached the final there where he lost to tine Henman.

Does he ever -play doubles to work on his all round game? I recall him playing doubles with Ferrero on clay at some tournament this year...I dont think they got through qualifying though (could someone PLEASE explain to me why those two need to qualify for doubles?). What Ferrero is doing playing doubles on clay is beyond me...he hardly needs to improve his game there.<br />Anyways...I got off track with my babbling <img src="eek.gif" border="0"> lol

At least this will improve his ranking to the top 40 likely.<br />Perhaps he can have a top 32 seeeding by the French.
