You Croatians are lucky Roddick was out with an injury...

yeah right, first of all, as i said before, croatia beat usa tree time in a row,
about roddick - it's a pitty that he didn't come because it is one of the best player around (wrong timing - a week after final in wimbledon)

I was at the Davis Cup last weekend also.... Spain won Germany 3-2

That's a quick pano ...not a single place to hide from the sun, this is the first match Verdasco-Beck, 5 sets from 13:00 to 17:30 at Marbella (South Spain)...too much hot!
