i'd be more than happy to turn on the tv next saturday and watch seles vs graf for a couple of hours… i just hope that graf would be able to play at the top of her game, and not let all the distractions get to her… i can't imagine being able to put up with all of the garbage that she has to deal with, and still stay number 1 in the world… but it seems like she thrives on the pressure, and really savors the victories more when she has these obstacles to overcome… more power to her… (not literally, of course)… and, of course, everything that i just said could also be applied to monica, as well… i saw a little of the sampras-philippoussis match yesterday… but the one who really impressed me yesterday was michael chang… i've been watching him play for several years, but i think last night was the first time that i really saw him as a serious challenger for the title… he's raised his game tremendously over the past few years… rather than being content as a defensive, run-everything-down type player, he's developed some pretty impressive weapons to attack with… he's got a good shot at this, i think… and how about boris becker?… he's quietly moving his way toward next weekend… … joe (depressed that week 1 is over)
