Lost a bit early there but looking good at US Open Qualifying. Donaldson, if healthy could be good this year at the US Open also.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01360870598727432063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10016685.post-63046771279350115922014-08-21T13:05:22.977-04:002014-08-21T13:05:22.977-04:00People were down playing the level at KZOO 18s las...People were down playing the level at KZOO 18s last year and now it appears that group is very strong. A few guys winning US Open qualifying matches. Still a few guys who could have played 16 and under. Do not remember a group this strong since Roddick, Fish, Ginepri, King (went to college, did not pan out as pro), etc. You would have to think a few of these guys could be top 20 players down the road. Maybe better with some luck. Congrats to them.

His movement was noticeably affected and the match was essentially over from that point on. Frank took a long injury timeout after the 2nd set for treatment on his back, but it provided little help. Kozlov only seemed to lose the 2 games (the first game of the 3rd and up 5-1) because he lost his focus/concentration playing a clearly injured guy. There was no celebration by Kozlov at the end of the match out of respect for his opponent's condition.College Fannoreply@blogger.com
