JAMES BLAKE DIDNT SUITE TO WINDY CONDITIONS


Fully shaved player James Blake struggled with the windy conditions and lost his first qualifying match against Victor Crivoi 7-5, 6-3 on Monday in the Rome Masters. Victor Crivoi ranked 112th and blake lost the first 5 games in the first set and then he cameback strongly by taking other five games.

But at the end it was Victor, who made it easily in the other two games.
Blake said "I didnt put any pressure on Victor by was little nervous when I came close to the first set". He also said " It was a really bad and most anonying day". Blake said these days should not come in his life again and he should over come this by gaining confidence and suites to all conditions.

With intermittent rain falling in the second set and the wind swirling on the makeshift secondary stadium court at the Foro Italico, Blake wasted a 2-0 lead and handed Crivoi his first tour victory this year.

"He did a better job of handling the conditions. I should have put more balls on the court," Blake said. "It makes when you're playing bad even less fun when you're out there and the conditions are like that. You got clay in your eyes and you can't control the ball because of the wind. And when it starts to drizzle, it makes it not so much fun."
