I don't know what his heritage has to do with how he walks or runs but whatever.

The kid is very tall.

The Evans Report: Streaking Domijan Stops Top Seed By Richard Evans

It was as good a tennis match you could wish to see – a wonderful, fluctuating battle between two of the most promising young talents on the planet, played out over more than two hours under glowering Florida skies.

Just before the rain came, Alex Domijan from Saddlebrook completed a magnificent fight back from 3-5 in the third to beat No 1 seed Tsung-Hua Yang of Taipei 3-6, 6-4, 7-5 in the third round of the Orange Bowl Boys Under 18’s.

To put this win in perspective, one has to recognize that Yang is not only the No. 1 seed but, by beating Matthew Kandath in the first round, he clinched the year-end No. 1 spot on the ITF World Junior Rankings. Yang was coming to the end of a stellar year that had seen him win the Roland Garros juniors; reach the final of the Australian Open and the semifinals at Flushing Meadows. He is a fast, wiry, hard-hitting baseliner with weapons on both flanks.

But, with the winning post in sight, Yang seemed to lose half a yard of pace and fade physically. Not so his tall, unfussed 17-year-old opponent whose gangling gait speaks of his Croatian, Polish, Italian and even Scottish heritage http://www.tennisweek.com/news/fulls...Newsid=6623940
