一些照片 Cilic为主XD http://www.menstennisforums.com/showthread.php?t=69579&page=47 第一次看到的打赤膊?! http://cache.daylife.com/imageserve/0b7Pf4naB7fUu/610x.jpg Croatia ahead of USA in the generation game http://www.daviscup.com/news/newsarticle.asp?articleid=16060 七年前美国跟克罗埃西亚对上时,美国派出Blake跟Fish, 克罗埃西亚则是Ljubicic和Ivanisevic;七年後,美国同样派出Blake跟Fish, 但克罗埃西亚则由新一代的Cilic领军. 2003年Blake跟Fish分别是22跟20岁,当时排名第一的Roddick因手腕受伤缺席. 如果Roddick出席或许情况会不同,而Blake明年三月是否继续为美国队效力仍存疑. 克罗埃西亚已经做了世代交接,2005年由Ljubicic跟Ancic组成的两人队伍赢得了DC, 现今由下个月满21岁的Cilic.还有已经30岁但目前是生涯高峰的Karlovic取代. 克国队长Goran Prpic表示现阶段球员仍不足,希望Ljubicic能重新加入, 能於九月在克国主场对上捷克队时,能担当双打成员和单打的替补选手. Ljubicic跟双打选手Lovro Zovko搭档不但可补强克国实力并可以让单打球员能休息一天, 避免这次对上Bryan兄弟68分钟被解决的局面. 如果九月的四强没有Ljubicic的加入,对上状况好的Berdych和Stepanek, 对克国将是一大挑战;有了Ljubicic,夺冠的机率则大大增加. 有Cilic访问 http://www.daviscup.com/news/matchreport.asp?articleid=16049 "I think this was one of the best matches I've played," Cilic said. "I was a little tired from the five sets on Friday, and today I played a lot of it on adrenaline, the crowd was carrying me throughout the match. I really played well, I felt good on court, moved really well, and even though I lost the third set I felt I was playing good and my tactics were perfect, so I kept going and eventually broke him." Blake was happy to recognise he had been beaten by the better player on the day. "Marin has played great this weekend. He took care of business against Mardy, and he played a very solid match today. I felt I gave him a few too many chances, I played a little too passive, didn't take as many risks as I normally do, and he took advantage of that. Any time I left the ball a little short or in his strike zone, he took care of it, and that's why he's as good as he right now." Cilic will lead Croatia in September, buoyed by an exhilarating experience over the nine sets he played. "This was one of the greatest ties I've played so far," he said. "I think I've gained a lot of experience here, everyone supported me, and it really felt good to play at home. The Czechs are also a great team, but playing at home is a little bit of an advantage, so with our team we can go through to the final." --
