Doista je Karlović imao više sreće nego pameti.

Čak 14 puta prijetio mu je gubitak servisa, a ubacio je 16 asova!?

No ostavimo prošlost, valja biti optimist.

Hewittu zasluženo naslov.

U drugoj igri zadnjega seta spasio tri vezane lopte za obrat i potom sve važne poene dobio.

A Karlović ima "sto" godina, golemo iskustvo, ali i dalje nakon drugoga servisa siluje mrežu koja ga je koštala presudnih poena.

Poraz nije sramota, ali što vrijedi odlična igra na turniru ako u završnici posao odradi amaterski.

Steta, ali sjajan tjedan.

"Hewitt returned really well," said Karlovic, a winner of two grass-court titles. "He rarely missed. I didn’t have my normal serve because it was windy. I was committing a lot of double faults and missing volleys - both of which I don’t normally do. That was because of the wind and because Hewitt was always right there.

“I’m a little disappointed but overall it was a good week."

Karlovic, the defending champion at next week's Claro Open Colombia in Bogota, was contesting his third final on as many different surfaces this season. He had reached finals on the indoor hard-courts of Memphis (l. to Nishikori) and on clay in Düsseldorf (l. to Kohlschreiber) earlier this year.

Ivo pao na 40.mjesto na live rankingu, ali ima šanse vratit se u top 30 obranom naslova u Bogoti. Biti će teško ali je i izvedivo, ima ne loš ždrijeb Dr.Ivo.

Da, baš gledam. Hm nadam se da ga neće umor stići jer let iz Rhode Islanda do Kolumbije nije zanemariv.

Odličan Thiem,otpuhao je Veselog s terena,bekend mu je fantastičan ,bez dvojbe velika je karijera pred njih

Da, nema loš ždrijeb, ali to u Karlovićevu slučaju baš i ne igra ulogu. Što smo vidjeli za Wimbledona.

Ivo je slobodan u 1. kolu, stoga bi to trebalo biti dovoljno da se njegova umorna leđa pripreme za nove izazove.
