It was the twins’ eighth Davis Cup victory and it has given the USA the advantage going into the final day’s singles. The American duo had won the first set 6-2, when Victor Hanescu of Romania had to retire thus forfeiting the match to the USA. Hanescu was struggling with a left rib injury and couldn’t continue forcing the Romanian team to retire. The Romanian number one, who is due to play Andy Roddick on Sunday, went to the hospital for an MRI after the match. Captain, Florin Segarceanu, remains hopeful he will be fit to play. “We have to see how he feels tomorrow morning when he wakes up, but at this point it doesn’t seem to be too many chances he will play. At this moment, I ’m hoping, I’m praying, he gets better tomorrow.” Despite his on court illness problems, Andy has declared himself ready for tomorrow’s match up, regardless of whether Hanescu will play. After his match on Friday, Andy spent two hours on an intravenous drip to get re-hydrated and is determined to get back on court and give the USA the rubber they need on Sunday. “I’m going to play. We’re going to do everything in our power. I’m going to go. We don’t have any other option. Yeah, I’m going to go. I’m going to try to take the best attitude possible throughout and really try to get through it and try to get a win on Sunday. I think that will make a day like today (Friday) forgotten in a lot of minds, including my own. I’d love to get out there” Andy and Hanescu have played once before in Paris Bercy in 2003, where Andy won. Captain Patrick McEnroe is confident Andy will be able to repeat that victory tomorrow and put the USA into the quarter finals of the 2006 Davis Cup. “We look forward to seeing Andy back on the court tomorrow and we hope to close it out.” If Hanescu is unable to play, the two alternates would be Razvan Sabau and Horia-Vlad Tecau ranked 112 and 443 in the world respectively. The match will be played first tomorrow, with play beginning at 11am (local time) 2:00pm (Eastern.) The latest report from our ar.com onsite reporter is that Andy had a 45 minute late afternoon hit. The good news is that he was in good spirits (nothing unusual for Andy!) and that the all too familiar “Crack” was heard when he served. ============================================================================== 看来还是会上场 加油阿!!! 别太勉强 -- "I'm not trying to hide from Federer.
