Still. After his semifinal I was on the yahoo tennis page where they have pictures and all six were various stages of Simon primal screams. This guy puts it out there. Like Radwanska, I'm curious what his staying power is.

I've gotten to see him in person twice now, Bea. Both times this season...against Youzhny at IW, and against DelPotro at the US.

He really reminds me more of Arantxa than any male player. Not particularly gifted in any single area, but good enough at everything, and then throw in that grinding ability, plus what seems to be a huge amount of heart. And an unwillingness to say quit when 90% of his contemporaries probably would.

He'll be 24 at the end of the season. His biggest problem could be that he will be maturing as a tennis player at the same time as getting older takes it toll on the style of game he plays.
