Around SBN: Dissecting Nick Diaz's Positive Drug Test

How do you serve 78 aces and lose?


1. Play like Ivo Karlovic

2. Play a grinder like Radek Stepanek.

3. Ivo Karlovic.   Need I say more.

Davis Cup can bring out some strange play.  This, I would say has to rank right up there.  Was anyone even trying to return serve?  Were the points more than 1 shot rallys?  I didn't see any of this, but I can get a picture of how it looked.  And the U.S. lost to this team?

The first time I saw that statistic I thought it was a joke. What a crazy match. Does anyone know if the first 4 sets had breaks?

They traded breaks in the second and third games of the match, and then 66 or so straight holds.
