Igor Andreev - Feliciano Lopez
In the first round, we found a very interesting party between Feliciano Lopez and Igor Andreev.
The beaten Earth returns to the ATP and it does with one of the prestigious matches but of the circuit, the Allianz Suisse Open that fulfills in 2005 its 90 championship edition.
Despues of a great Wimbledon, in which Feliciano has made clear as it is his style of tennis basing it on the serve and the volea, the toledano arrives at Gstaad with the intention to pass some round but knowing that the beaten Earth is the surface in which but undergoes its game.
During this 2005, Lopez has demonstrated that the fast tracks are their fort and that when they arrive the earth matches, due to their lack of consistency from the bottom of the track, have many difficulties and as soon as it advances rounds.
Their better east result year in beaten earth has been sad Quarterfinals in Estoril (Portugal) and I arrive despues to surpass 1ª and 2ª makes the rounds in 3 sets very fit so much with Corretja as with Montañes, both players outside form throughout this 2005.
On the contrary, opposite estara a player, Andreev, that obtains 85% of points ATP of the year in earth tracks and that pass it really badly when the season arrives from fast track.
For that reason, tendra that to take advantage of this interval that exists between the grass and previous the American matches of cement to U.S. OPEN to be able to raise positions in the Race of Champions ATP.
Another data significant to bet something by the Russian, is that this it defends the points of the end of the last year.
In 2004, Andreev made a great match and single was surpassed I complete day of match in 4 sets by the best player of the world, Roger Federer. Therefore, if the Russian does not want to give to an important step atras, debera to gain Feliciano to be able to approach but the possible thing that end reached in 2004.
Good luck.
