Tennis game become my favourite sport show for 2-3 years since my countryman, Mr.Paradorn Srichaphan, was interested by the international tennis fans. Date back about 6 years, when I was a primary school kid, I enjoyed playing it every Saturday. (By the way, if you know me, I'm not the one who do a lot of sport) Even I do not play tennis for a long time, it seem that my skill is still remain and I can adapt it quite well when I play squash.

Tommy Robredo Garces was born in Barcelona, Spain 1982. He started playing tennis at age of 5 and finally won junior championship in this own country. In 2004, Tommy as a member of "the gang" celebrated the Devis cup winner position after conqured American in the final . (What I like most for that year's Devis cup is his match with Rafael Nadal against Frenches.) I truly became "Robredo's supporter" when I watched his match against Marat Safin last year; That long match drived Safin crazy enough to destroy hisown racquet and also----his chair! Finally he won over seeded Safin.

Like other Spanish players, Tommy has a good "running and slide - footwork skill" on clay cord and also the hand grip style, efficient for making the amazing top-spin ball. Apart from that, I think his forehand is very good (he don't have to open the his arm much and this sets the high speed to the ball.) It make the speeded ball fly to the accurate target. Moreover, I love the amazing slice-net-ball as well as target-locked lop ones. (Well, I wish sometime he will do the great inside-out forehand like Carlos Moya)

Previously, he reached the world No.10 position and now his rank is 7! I wish he will do a good job at  Roland Garros.

Best wish to you, Tommy
