French Open - Men's Fourth Round
32 Tommy Robredo d 11 Nicolas Almagro - 67(5) 36 64 64 64
Tommy has sooooooooooo earned those tears of joy.
I mean. How on earth is he into the quarters?
This was his 3rd straight match coming back from 2 set to none.
The last man to win 3 straight 0-2's was Cochet at Wimby back in 1927.
And this is a guy that started the season outside the top 100.
And if that weren't enought - he's over 30.
I did say improbable, didn't I. Beret's off to you Tommy.
This is Tommy's 4th trip to the RG quarters: 0-3.
Post match: I think that being in the quarter-finals again, it's amazing,
and also with three comebacks the way I did. I just need to enjoy it
because I think that in tennis, we need to enjoy it when we do great
things and keep focused. Because if it's possible, why not? [I could be]
one time in the semi-finals here.

Who has the nerve to doubt him now?
But Tommy faces a tall test next against Ferrer - H2H: 6-2/Ferrer.
But didn't we all say that about his match today?
Exactly.
