At the Wimbledon 2009,

[Q1] (14) Somdev Devvarman (IND,132) l Jean-Rene Lisnard (MON,237) 36 26
[Q1] (28) Prakash Amritraj (IND,154) bt Antonio Veic (CRO,236) 63 64

[Q2] (28) Prakash Amritraj (IND,154) vs (WC) Daniel Cox (GBR,627)

Expected winning start for Prakash against Croatian ... Very clinical display by Prakash in this match ... Prakash having tricky second round against 19 yrs old wildcard local player, who also like to play on grass.

Very disappointing performance by Som ... More than defeat in this match, one-sided scoreline was more hurting ... Now I m more and more convinced that something is wrong with Som's game and he need to rectify it as soon as possible as from this month-end Som will start losing ranking points from his last year's fabulous summer.
