Couple matches yes - couple of wins would be a great success (since he will get bye first round). We all know Markos performance on clay. A quick look on the entry list; no big names BUT majority are clay players who are rushing to go back and get some points on clay This is a 250 one, right? Very good, go Marcos, take some wins there :-)

Marcos on facebook: Casablanca Draw: Marcos is seeded No. 2. He has a bye in the first round and will open against one of two qualifiers. Seeded to meet Victor Hanescu in the quarters and Gilles Simon in the semis. What do you think? about an hour ago========================================================================== the Romanian giant provides a huge presence on clay, Gillou is currently out of shape though.
hope you savour awesome wins, Marcos.

qualifiers haven't been placed in the main draw yet.
the 4 qualifiers are: Gutierrez-Ferrol, Granollers-Pujol (Marcel's young brother, Marcos defeated Marcel at RG last year), Devilder and Kuznetsov.
Devilder and Kuznetsov are tough cookies... i guess Marcos prefers to avoid playing them in his opening match... we will see what happens, Marcos can still do the business anyway..
