Tennis musings.

I'm watching Cilic hurtle towards losing to Del Potro. From whom he took the frist set. And he looked so comfy at the beginning of the second.
I do miss Ancic. These new ones aren't quite the same. Djokovic is a brooding, sulky young man, and Nadal wears ugly clothes. Ancic was always well behaved, clothed in unoffensive colours and garments, and possessed of a lovely serve and volley game. Which fell apart on more than one occassion- but he was so pretty too. The makes up for many things.
Now Cilic is one of the few on the tour, who can still pull out a decent serve and volley game. I really want him to do that now. Or I'll be very annoyed that I stayed up till four to watch a match, and it didn't end as desired. Hmph.

Nadal, an ugly champion in uglier clothes? :) I like. Del Potro is happily neutral too, in a lumberjacky way.
