Grosjean V Lapentti ATP SAT 4/23

DUlrich1227 · 04-23-05, 06:07 PM

I am not the best at writing (essay , thought , whatever .. but here goes..)

Ok lets start off with some stats.. Sebastian is 7-1 against Lapentti, the only loss coming on carpet in 99 .. The last win coming a few weeks ago in miami ..(6-3, 6-4)

Lappenti's journy in getting here came with some decent wins..but i wouldnt say they were against any "special" clay courters..lappentti plays 53% of his matches on clay. Looking at the match facts i would say his best win was against a tired ZIB. Kim (20% clay) Blake(20% Clay- and a 14-16 record in 3 set TB's)

Sebastiens journy to the semis has deffinitly suprised me ! Though it looked like sebastian was serving and playing well I think Andre gave a way the match in frustration. Seb did have quite a few aces though.. so who knows how motivated andre was ..

Seb's foes here.. Phau (30% clay player and a lossing record) with a 3 set win ,Hernandez (98% clay 147-88 record) with a 3 set win, But what really sticks out in my mind..is sebs losses prior to this... GG in miami (6-2, 6-3), Ferrer in Indian wells (6-2,3-6,6-1), TJ & JJ in davis cup (clay) all these players many steps above a lapenti in my book..Also Seb has not done much traveling he lives in s florida ( a few miles form me actually) and has played all recent matches on US soil (since 3/13) lapenti playing @ 4x as many matches between mexico , bermuda, etc.. (all atp events started in as Q)

Well in summing up this is were lapentis' little run in HOUSTON ENDS..Grosjean the better player , better form , and deffintly gets the EDGE

SEBASTIEN GROSJEAN (USA) -220
880 to win 400

S.GROSJEAN WINS 1ST SET -188
188 to win 100

and a samll stake on..
S.GROSJEAN WINS 2-1 +355

GL dave, yeah AA definately lost that match yesterday, grosjean didn't play all that well but AA couldn't serve for shit and just didn't make his shots. Don't think i've seen him play that poorly in quite some time. GL tonight
