Is any American man really upset when they lose on clay? Is any American man really upset with the scheduling of tournaments when they take the whole spring off? Something about spending the spring in Europe as a 20 something year old just doesn't seem to be a bad thing to me. WTF is wrong with USTA regarding this? I say if you don't make an effort in the spring(monaco,barc. madr. rome), you're not allowed any appearance fee money the rest of the year.

Are you talking about Querrey? He was definitely uninterested in this match. I watched bits and pieces of the first set, and then switched to it at 5 all. In the tiebreaker he won ONE point on his serve. The three he lost were all do to not paying attention. One shank, one net clipper, one point where he failed to put a volley away again and again and again. Even the point he won was from a giant ace that barely touched the sideline and was obviously a "eh, I guess I'll bomb one." I found myself severely annoyed just watched ten minutes of the match.
