week |31| ATP : Washington, Sopot

[Guest]

Why Gaudio's spot in Sopot draw has been replaced by a lucky loser and not the "ninth " seeded player ??.

Maybe because when Gaudio withdrew the order of play for Monday was already made ?? is that the reason ?

Thanks.

De Chaunac has a Bye in Washington first round when he should have played against Karlovic, because Carlsen should have been the 17th seed...

Coria withdrew from Sopot

Think he's still playing. His match v Kuerten is still on the order of play for today.

I thing No 9 in Sopot is Monfils.

Agassi didn't withdraw until after the Monday OOP had been released. That's the determining factor about whether or not Carlsen got bumped up.

R Bloomfield (GBR) replaces N Kiefer (GER)

Coria withdrew from Sopot

If he did, than someone else is playing under his name... and plays damn well, he got to the semis!!

Yet another case of a "guest" putting in some rumor. Of course, we had the official list here and he never withdrew in our list. Such rumors will be negated here with the official list.

I hope people would refrain from putting in withdrawal rumors, unless they have solid official info on it. Or at least say, "I heard from a buddy who has a girlfirend with an uncle who is a jogging partner for a markesman at the club that Coria may have withdrawn" ....

Everyone in Argentina heard that from Coria himself just 5 min after winning in Umag...

OK, if so, the post here should not be just "Coria out at sopot", but rather the exact quote.

"Coria just said at the prize ceremony at Umag that he may have to withdraw from Sopot" or

"Coria just said at the prize ceremony at Umag that he is considering withdrawing from Sopot" or

"Coria just said at the prize ceremony at Umag that he will withdraw from Sopot"

... In other words, post carefully and sensibily.
