Andy Murray vs Jo-Wilfried Tsonga — Wimbledon 2010

bit.ly Andy Murray and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga square off in the quarterfinals of Wimbledon. Murray is the only player left in the draw that has yet to drop a set. I think Tsonga needs to take an aggressive, first-strike approach vs Murray. Tsonga has a big serve and forehand but his backhand is weak and exploitable. If Murray is able to neutralize a lot of points he’ll work the ball to Tsonga’s backhand and have the advantage. Also look for the home crowd to give Murray a boost — particularly in tight spots. I think this X factor will be a big advantage for Murray, should he need it. Please join us for the Wimbledon final!

Players Report:

Thiemo De Bakker is facing up Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in the Barcelona open Bancsabadell atlantico 2010 match on Friday.

Jo-Wilfried Tsonga made another debut the following week in Barcelona at the 2010 Barcelona Open Banco Sabadell. This is because Jo has always been injured and has never participated in the start of the clay season before. He received a bye in the first round.

De Bakker started 2010 in much the same way he finished 2009. He reached the quarter-finals of the 2010 Aircel Chennai Open, after defeating the eighth seed, Rajeev Ram, and compatriot Robin Haase, he lost to Janko Tipsarevic. This would boost his ranking to number 81 in the world, and gave him a high enough ranking to receive direct entrance into the 2010 Australian Open – Men’s Singles. In his first Grand Slam in three years, the Dutchman was paired up against the 6th seed Andy Roddick. After a nervous first set, De Bakker regained some composure and made a contest out of it, losing the second and third set by only one break each. De Bakker’s next tournament was his first ever Masters event, the 2010 BNP Paribas Open. He would win his opening match against Marcos Daniel in straight sets, before falling once again to Andy Roddick, the eventual finalist.

De Bakker played his second Masters event two weeks later the 2010 Sony Ericsson Open, winning his first round match against Rajeev Ram in straight sets, before falling again to the eventual finalist, this time Tomas Berdych. De Bakker’s next Masters event was the 2010 Monte-Carlo Rolex Masters, where he had to qualify this time. After defeating Eduardo Schwank, De Bakker lost to the five-time reigning champion, and world number two, Rafael Nadal. De Bakker lost this match in less than an hour, winning only one game in two sets. His next tournament was the 2010 Barcelona Open Banco Sabadell. He took out World No.58 Alejandro Falla 6-1 6-0, followed by a 7-6(5) 6-3 victory over World No.92 Daniel Gimeno-Traver. In the round of 16, he scored his best career victory by taking out World No.16 and former World No.1 Juan Carlos Ferrero 7-6(2) 3-6 7-6(4). Ferrero had a 18-2 record on clay for the year.

Rafael Nadal, Andy Roddick and Novak Djokovic have succumbed, one way or another, to the physical demands of the modern game as the Australian Open fillets the strong from the strongest – and now hard questions will be asked again of Jo-Wilfried Tsonga.

The hugely entertaining Frenchman with the untapped talent came through the second five-setter of his career, as Djokovic succumbed to a mysterious stomach complaint in their marathon quarter-final, and he must steel himself for the ultimate challenge: Roger Federer.

Federer’s own struggle was functional in the tennis sense, his finely tuned game deserting him entirely in a weird first set against Nikolay Davydenko before returning in time to see him through to the semi‑finals.

Roddick’s shoulder packed up on him at just the wrong time in the fourth round against Marin Cilic, who faces Andy ­Murray who, in turn, saw the physical degradation of Nadal in their quarter-final not so much as a bonus but a sad backdrop to the Spaniard’s departure.

So this is a tournament of attritional tests, as players as near to physical perfection as modern technology can facilitate crack under the pressure of stretching their bodies and spirits to the limit.

Djokovic was the most despondent. He had to leave the court for what is euphemistically called a toilet break but which, clearly, was a bit more traumatic than that, before losing 6-7, 7-6, 6-1, 3-6, 1-6 to Tsonga. How, we wondered, would Tsonga fare against Federer? “I don’t know and I don’t care,” was his curt response.

Djokovic, who had reasonable expectations of reaching the final, did say: “Jo played a great match,” before adding: “It was unfortunate that I couldn’t perform on the level that I wanted to in the fourth and fifth sets. It’s a bad way to go, not to be able to physically go [hard] through the whole match.”

Tsonga, meanwhile, moves on to where Djokovic had been striving. He was altogether more philosophical – and light-hearted. “Sometimes,” he said, “you have a problem with your forehand, some times with your backhand – and some times with your body. Today, he had some problem with his stomach, I think at the beginning of the third set. It’s good for me, bad for him. That’s it.”

He pointed out of his upcoming foe: “Roger played unbelievable today again, because Nikolay was in good shape, so it’s going to be tough. But, like today, I will give it everything.”

Tsonga has beaten Federer before but knows this is entirely different: he needs to produce an all-or-nothing attack. He reckons he will be a different player to the one who lost the final here in 2008. “Maybe I’m stronger, physically stronger. I think I have more than one way to play, and this is why I’m better.”

He put his good run here down to having time to get ready. “Maybe because I have time to prepare more than the other grand slams.”, because the season is long and we have to play a lot of tournaments. Some times it’s tough to be ready for Roland Garros and Wimbledon, and also the US Open, because we have to play so many tournaments.”

Federer was grilled after an exhausting match against Davydenko, a contest that had more twists than Home And Away, the Australian soap that took precedence in television coverage by the host ­broadcaster, Channel 7.

He had said he played best as a frontrunner; how did he cope going a set down? “I was in a tough situation at 6-2 and 3-1 down and 15-40 on my serve,” he said. “I knew I wasn’t looking very good. But that’s the beauty of five sets. I’m happy the way I was able to go on an incredible run and get the cushion with the extra break at the beginning of the fourth.”

At that point, Federer had won a staggering 13 games in a row – only to see Davydenko come back at him like a rottweiler looking for meat. He came through, however, securing a semi-final place for his 23rd straight grand slam, a stunning run. Federer revealed, however: “I was just a bit worried I was not going to make it this time in the semis. You always believe the streak is going to be broken.” Ultimately, they are all vulnerable.

There is a fair chance Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, who plays Novak Djokovic in a re-match of their 2008 Australian Open final, might do so, for it is possible to argue that going the wrong way at Melbourne Park two years ago cost him a grand slam title.

Holding a break point at 5-all in the fourth set, an opportunity that almost certainly would have seen the final go to a deciding fifth set, the Frenchman seemingly had his Serbian rival stricken at the net when a ball lobbed up to his forehand mid-court.

Thump it cross-court and the Frenchman takes the momentum into a one-set race for the title.

Instead, history shows that Tsonga crunched it down the line and the tiring Djokovic managed a reflex volley winner before hanging on in the tiebreaker to win.

Tsonga is confident of his chances having defeated the world No 3 four successive times following the Open final before falling in the Miami Masters last year.

Asked what he had learnt since the 2008 Open final, Tsonga was not certain.

“But I beat him four times, I think, since this moment, so I learned to beat him,” Tsonga said.

Third seed Djokovic had an easy passage through the fourth round against Pole Lukasz Kubot.

Conversely Tsonga was forced to battle hard to topple Spanish seed Nicolas Almagro, eventually triumphing 9-7 in the fifth set.

But the 24-year-old from Le Mans said the experience of winning a five-set encounter would stand him in good stead and promised to take the fight up to Djokovic tonight.

“Against him, I’ll stay aggressive, very aggressive and give everything,” Tsonga said.

Djokovic is aware the Frenchman can prove almost invincible if allowed to dictate terms and said he would attempt to alter the rhythm of the match.

“Jo can beat anyone if he’s really on the roll and if he starts hitting the ball well,” Djokovic said.

“I just to have keep pressuring him and just apply my style of game, not allow him to control the match.”

The other quarter-final today is between Roger Federer and Nikolay Davydenko.

Until November, this clash would have appeared a formality.

The Swiss star, after all, had beaten Davydenko in their first 10 outings. But in the semi-finals of the Masters Cup in London, Federer flinched late in the match, allowing Davydenko to claim a 6-2 4-6 7-5 victory. Incredibly, he posted an easier victory at the start of this season in Doha, winning 6-4 6-4. Federer said the biggest difference in Davydenko was his improved serve.
