Thanks. Mr. Federer has a lot to worry about! I do not think he will do well this year.

Did you see Fed's backhand in the first set? I was surprised to see him hitting like that. That is a bit promising for him. 8)

As ever with Gulbis it was hit and miss, in the second he just happened to hit more. However to be fair mentally he stuck with it and served a lot better, Federer looked like he was expecting him to cave and his mind wandered and he made some shoddy errors.

I really don't worry too much about Fed's form outside the Majors unless it was totally shocking for a sustained period, we all know Federer's form over 5 sets.
