I'm surprised Janowicz lost yesterday, bowing out in the first round again Gonzalez, and Argentinian not even inside the top 250. I know he had a medical time out to his back so I'm guessing an injury contributed to his defeat.
I was tipping him to reach the semi finals for a meeting against Nadal, so although its very disappointing for Janowicz fans, for Nadal fans this means the draw because slightly more favourable. Providing he overcomes a match up against Federer in the quarters, he's now likely to face Ferrer, a player he's certainly got a vice-like hold on, or Raonic, a promising player but one who Nadal has beaten already this North American hard court season and a player he is likely to beat.
Bring on the Nadal v Djokovic or Murray final!
Janowicz out

He certainly was in Andy's face all the time, not sure it did him any favours.

He certainly is a fiery character and attempts to get under the opponents skin, which was very deliberate in the game against Murray at wimbledon.
However, he is such an exciting player and has the full range of shots: a huge serve, huge forehand and backhand but also has the touch at the net - he's one of the best players at executing quality drop shots. Providing he stays injury free I can see him reaching the top 10 within 12-18 months and staying there for a while

Don't get me wrong, really impressive game, just didn't like his attitude.
I was watching that match with one of Murray's mates and he said it wouldn't faze Andy at all, he was right.
