Romania - Austria 3-0 in the qualifying round for the World Group playoff!

In the first day, Pavel won against Meltzer, a 20 old, but talented, Austrian player, 3-0 and Voinea won against the best Austrian player 3-1!

Just a few minutes ago, in the double match, Pavel/Trifu won in 5 sets, after losing incredibly a tie-break in the 4th set.

The match took place in Constanta, Pavel's city. Now a demonstrative match is scheduled, between Hagi and Ilie Nastase on one side and Mercea and Tecau, the junior Australian Open finalists, on the other side. Unfortunately, the TV doesn't show it.

Have you seen one of those last balls in the 4th set? Wow, you should tell your nephews about that.

Basically, Trifu, I think, had an easy ball and so he could make sure he scores he made a powerful shot. It was perfect, but the ball hit one Austriac right in his shoe and then returned, touching Trifu and going out!

The commentator said that the ball went into his rocked, but I'm not that sure. I still think it went into his shoe.

HAI PAVEL!

Re: Rugby

Hey Lupi, therugby topic is a good one...Why not open a thread for this. I think we are on our way back to getting to the level we were back in the early 80's (remember when we beat France and Wales). Yep, we should definitely have a Rugby Thread...
