I am copying folloing article from www.eurosport.com

It makes me really, really laughing…
You love him or hate him. This is a fun club of Simon Reed – comments are welcomed.

It was great to see Andy Murray make a winning comeback in Valencia and I still believe he is the best tennis player in the world, that’s not to say he’s going to win a Grand Slam.

To come back in Valencia and win after all that time out is amazing, but until he wins a Grand Slam you have to regard him as being on a lesser level than the likes of Federer and Nadal.

I don’t think Federer is the player he was, Nadal is not the player he was. Djokovic seems to be coming back and there are others coming up, Cilic is one, but I think they are all pretty level and you can’t pick a number one.

But if you press me to pick a number one, you look at who has been the most consistent outside of slams and it is Andy Murray.

He has won six times now, but for us to truly believe he needs to win a Slam; I am sure that will come.

Heading to London fresh will help him and it will help him next year for the Australian Open.

Right now if you ask me who is going to win in London I would have to say Murray. He is the favourite for me.

Federer is not playing well, for Djokovic to beat him in Basel is a great result for Djokovic and Nadal is not quite there either after all his problems.

I see Andy Murray as the favourite to win in London, but not in Australia. He has to prove he can win a Grand Slam first.

London will be a great occasion and Murray will go there being lightly raced and then on to Australia. Australia is his ideal surface and it is a great chance for him – but as I say, he needs to prove he can do it on the big occasion.

And the famous author of this article is Simon Reed and here is him on a picture… Funny guy.

Question: Sorry Rafa, when exactly did you play?

Rafael Nadal: I played one day night, one day night, one day night, next day, day.

Well… Kupili smo karte – Internet je čudo sve preko njega uradiš and we also kupili karte za koncert Erica Claptona in Royal Albert Hall so it should be super zanimljivo eventhough he is već malo stariji.

Što se tiče airplane tickets, it would be pitty da ne iskoristimo super povoljne cene EasyJet avionskog prevoznika.

Britanska funta je kilava ovih dana, but it was also a weaker, sada je nešto jača od evra, a bila je prvi put ispod evra i trebalo je tada iskoristiti priliku.

Wimbledon ćemo ove godine propustiti, but we hope da ćemo otići in near future.

I have found interesting photos at this website:

Krajinović gets chance of a lifetime
Not many people get an opportunity like NBTA student Filip Krajinović got a couple of weeks ago in California. Krajinović, 16, was in between two Challenger events in California when his manager at IMG set up a hit for him with tennis legend Pete Sampras. The young Serbian hit with Sampras for over two hours and he absolutely loved it.

No, prošlo je tri sata ujutro, čekao sam prenos Đoković – Nadal i isplatilo se. Oduvao ga Novak u prvom setu sa 6:1, u drugom je bilo izjednačeno ali Novak je na kraju bio bolji.

Taman mi je došlo zgodno ovako kasno doba da objavim novu verziju mog sajta za besplatno oglašavanje svih nekretnina na Balkanu – www.kvadrati.com

A sada malo za pretraživače teksta…

Ma bravo majstore stvarno! Pobedio si Mr. Perferct-a!
Dakle, ako slučajno neko ne zna Novak Đoković je upravo pobedio Rodžera Federera (Novak Djokovic vs Roger Federer) i poslao ga kući.

Pete Sampras može da odahne, još uvek beži dva grand slam-a Rodžeru.
Tako se to radi, kratko ali ….

And this thing about Nole’s ego?
Well at least when he talks the talk, he shows that he can walk the walk!

R Federer/ N Djokovic
6-3, 2-6, 6-3

An interview with: NOVAK DJOKOVIC

THE MODERATOR: Questions, please.

Q. What were you thinking at one-set-all? What was in your mind at the time?

NOVAK DJOKOVIC: Well, actually, I was thinking to continue playing my game that I played in the second set because I think that I played really, really good second set. I had match under control, and I was just getting my game.

The thing is that he started to play more aggressive. I went two meters behind a little bit. I didn’t have enough maybe courage or something to hit the winner. And just two, three points or two, three balls decided, I think, the start of the third set and actually the whole match, ’cause I think the start of the third set was crucial.

Like you said, the first three games. I had opportunity first game on 30‑All, and second game I had 40‑30 on my serve. I didn’t use this, and then against a player like Roger, against the best player in the world, you just have to use your opportunities when they ‑‑ when the opportunities have given. I didn’t use them, and he just used his experience. He was playing smart, and I just made a couple of mistakes which decided the match.

Q. Overall, you should be satisfied by your game today.

NOVAK DJOKOVIC: Yeah, yeah. I mean, I am very satisfied with my game that I played today against Federer. But in the other hand, I’m disappointed not because of my game, it’s just because I know that I had chance to win. That’s why.

Like I said, couple of points decided, and my chance was today to win against Roger because it’s his first match outside on the clay and I played qualifications two matches. So, yeah, this was my chance.

But, anyway, this will be a big experience for me and my confidence will grow up for sure after this match ’cause I know that I played well. Just I’m still young, so I just need to have more and more matches like this so I can learn how to play against these kind of players.

Q. You are not very young.

NOVAK DJOKOVIC: I mean…

Q. You seem to be very mature, I should say.

NOVAK DJOKOVIC: Yes, yes (smiling). With the years, yes, I am still little bit young, yeah, 18.

Q. Why do you think Roger has more difficulty on clay? What is your opinion on that?

NOVAK DJOKOVIC: Well, he doesn’t. He plays ‑‑ he’s just one of the best players ever in tennis history, that’s for sure. Everybody knows that.

The problem is that – why he’s so good on all kind of surfaces is that every time before the match everybody goes – he goes to every match with already a winner, you know? Because everybody is getting scared, “Oh, he’s RogerFederer,” you know. “I cannot win against him,” you know. “He’s perfect.” “I have to play something that I am not playing, something over my maximum, my limits.”

That’s how he already wins, you know.

But I think I started a little bit nervous today, you know, and he broke me I think 1‑All first set. I was playing and I was thinking I have to do, like I said, “something else.”

Then I realize he’s good, he’s the best, but still he’s not alien, you know, he’s not getting everything all the winners. He’s just playing very smart game. He’s very calm. And I started to just play with him, you know. Played a couple of shots and make him make mistakes. That’s what I did second set, and I played very, very good. Unfortunately, I didn’t continue playing like this.

I think Roger, everybody knows that Roger’s worst surface is clay, but still he’s for sure in three best players on the clay also, you know. You know, even I’m sure that he will get his game much better in next couple of matches, that’s for sure.

Borba bez straha, vera u sopstvene mogućnosti 100%, nema kuknjave, vikanja na sudije, ljutnje na samog sebe. Baš kako i treba, stao si iza svakog svog poena bez obzira da li si ga dobio ili izgubio. Nisi pao u formi, ritam si držao do samog kraja, moguće da je jedina greška bilo opuštanju u zadnjem servisu kada si imao 40:0 ali i dužina meča je uticala. Ovaj meč bi morao svaki igrač koji treba da izađe na megdan Federeru da pogleda i to više puta i to jedini pravi put kako se treba boriti protiv šampiona – veruj u sebe i ne misli o protivniku. Mirki Vavrinec je laknulo, sreća pa je bilo dovoljno čipsa.
