From Marcos's Official Website :Moscow Draw Announced
No. 4 seed Marcos receives an opening bye…[/size] Marcos will make his debut at the Kremlin Cup in Moscow next week as he starts his indoor campaign. He has been seeded fourth at the ATP World Tour 250 tournament and will receive a bye through the first round. In the second round Marcos will face either Italian Potito Starace or Russian wild card Teymuraz Gabashvili. He is seeded to face seventh seed Sergiy Stakhovsky in the quarter-finals, although the Ukrainian would first need to beat countryman Alexandr Dolgopolov. If all goes according to seeding, Marcos would face second seed and defending champion Mikhail Youzhny in the semi-finals. World No. 6 Nikolay Davydenko heads up the 28-man field. Check out the full draw here : www.atpworldtour.com/posting/2010/438/mds.pdfDiscuss the draw on Marcos’ Official Facebook page : www.facebook.com/pages/Marcos-Baghdatis-Official/323788987930Main draw action gets underway on Monday in Moscow.

good that Marcos has to play Starace, and not Gaba, cuz pretty much all of the Italian players have been garbage for a couple of years. yet it depends on Marcos' emotional state whether Poto, normally the underdog on this surface, has the upper hand and beats him... the guy certainly has the potential to make his presence felt and frustrate Marcos, particularly if he changes things up with a couple of cute drop shots... hope Marcos has the answers. from Poto's match against Nalbandian in Buenos Aires this year. David is so good in changing directions. that's clay, isn't it? well, Moscow isn't that fast after all. players ready for the 15-minute warm-up. vamos !!!

Poto looked extremely vulnerable and Marcos finished him off. 6-4 6-3. nice. hope he plays Stakho next. Dolgo might be a way easier opponent than Stakho, but it's Stakho that has an easy on the eye and catchy game. yes, above all else i love watching beautiful tennis.

Marcos on twitter: I am going to practise with Guigui for an hour today .... ....about 2 hours ago via TweetDeck ========================================================================== Marcos, how about mind training? using, for instance, setbacks to help you focus better and being determined to make up for them instead of dwelling on them?... yes, this one is not a curiosity of the player-coach axis.
see you tomorrow against the Ukrainian.

another reason Olek, or Alex as he likes to be called, is boring is that he's so puffed up.
Marcos, need yet another reason to beat him?

Marcos took the first 6-2 in 26 minutes.
it's lovely to watch him.
hopefully we won't witness a change of momentum here.
