... upcoming Davis Cup tie against Bulgaria (which is on clay)... oops. i'm, apparently, wrong. the DC tie is on indoor carpet. www.daviscup.com/en/results/tie/details.aspx?tieId=100016267still, i agree with Marcos' decision to prioritise his immediate schedule and 'sacrifice' the grass-court season this year.

Marcos and Ivan won 62 26 10-3 great job there to overcome Richie's love for clay and Jo's powerful game. hmm, did Ivan carry Marcos through this match? oh well, just kidding.

sixth seeded pairing of Lucasz Kubot and Oliver Marach is up next. Kubot and Marach are two of the most experienced doubles players and they've already played many matches together so far this year.

Marcos and Ivan lost 7-6(7) 6-4. didn't watch the match but it looks from the stats like they lost a very close battle in 1 h and 54 min. hope Marcos starts feeling his feet great on his least favourite surface and reveals his true clay-court potential soon.
