2003 daily updates

Lleyton has advised that he will not be participating in the 2004 Olympic Games because it is scheduled 3 days before the US Open. This is very disappointing as it is a great honour for most athletes to represent their country at this special event.

Perhaps tennis should not be a part of the event if top players consider it unimportant and elect to give other tournaments priority.

Wednesday June 12

Lleyton Hewitt had to draw upon all of his experience to keep his hopes of a record fourth consecutive Stella Artois title alive after overcoming a close three-set battle with Raemon Sluiter.

The top seed eventually prevailed 7-6(6), 3-6, 7-6(3) after 2 hours, 9 minutes, having saved a set point in the first set tie-break as Sluiter's backhand volley drifted wide.

"I knew it was going to be a tough match as soon as I saw the draw," said Hewitt. "I've only played against him once in Stockholm and I played pretty average that day but he played very well. I saw him play against Tim [Henman] here in the semifinals last year and he probably should have won that match. So I knew it was going to be hard and that's exactly how it was."

Jason Stoltenburg has resigned as Lleyton's coach citing family reasons. Roger Rasheed who has been working as assistant coach will take over. Lleyton has a bye in the first rd at Queens. Lleyton and Flip were successful in the dbles at Queens defeating J.M. Gambill-G. Oliver 62 75

'In perhaps the most stunning collapse of his young career, top-ranked Lleyton Hewitt was shocked 6-4 6-1 3-6 2-6 3-6 by Spaniard Tommy Robredo in the third round on Saturday.
Hewitt appeared to have seized control of the match in the fifth set when he screamed and sped his way to a 3-0 lead, but then his level of play dropped precipitously and the Aussie slipped, slid and dropped six straight games and the match. For his part, Robredo never appeared to tire and kept fighting, keeping the ball deep, serving huge at key moments and nailing the corners with his whipping forehands."

Lleyton outlasted Davydenko 6-3, 4-6, 6-3, 7-6 (5) in a three-and-a-half hour dogfight.
"Even though he hit short much of the day and could have used a rocket booster attached to his racket to help him hit a winner, the red-faced Hewitt kept fighting until his opponent folded in the fourth set tiebreaker, squandering a 3-0 lead due to six unforced errors."

"Top seed Lleyton Hewitt opened his 2003 French Open campaign by grinding down American rookie Brian Vahaly in four long sets on Court Suzanne Lenglen early Tuesday afternoon.
The 22-year-old Australian spent a gruelling three hours, 13 minutes under the sunny Parisian skies, gradually exhausting the inexperienced Vahaly 6-4 6-1 6-7(6) 6-3 with a mediocre display of baseline tennis. A combined unforced error count of 201 painted a dismal picture of today's less than impressive performance by both players."

"TOP seed Lleyton Hewitt will have to fight all the way for his first French Open title after being handed a nightmare draw today with the prospect of facing any one of seven top line clay court specialists by the semis.

If Hewitt gets past a potential clash with three-time winner Gustavo Kuerten or 21st seed Gaston Gaudio in the fourth round, he faces a possible quarter final against either defending champion Albert Costa (9th seed) from Spain or Gaudio's fellow Argentinians David Nalbandian (8) and Agustin Calleri (18)."

"World number one Lleyton Hewitt earned a psychological boost before next week's French Open by breaking a four-match losing streak against Carlos Moya (news) at the World Team Cup on Thursday. Hewitt matched Moya from the baseline to claim a 6-2, 3-6, 6-3 victory and put his team ahead against Spain in the Red Group. But his joy was short-lived as Alex Corretja beat Wayne Arthurs to level the scores before Spain won the deciding doubles to clinch a 2-1 victory."

The Australian team has with a 3:0 result against the US. Lleyton and Wayno both won their single matches (6:3, 6:3 against James Blake, 7:6, 7:5 against Todd Martin) and the double with Wayne Arthurs and Todd Reid succeeded against Mardy Fish and Graydon Oliver with 6:4 and 6:2.

With the Red Group contest down to the doubles, Hewitt and Arthurs combined but were unable to rescue the result for Australia, as Novak and Stepanek claimed a decisive 6-4 6-4 victory.

Lleyton was defeated in a 3 set encounter today by Fernando Gonzales 1-6 6-3 0-6.

"It was the second straight match in which a sluggish Hewitt slumped to a 0-5 start. Yesterday, he fought back from the deep deficit to overcome Arnaud Clement in a three hour, 36-minute marathon that was the longest three-set match of Hewitt's career. Fatigue may have been a factor today as Hewitt had trouble making up ground against Gonzalez's overwhelming baseline assault, but even a rested Hewitt would have had trouble beating Gonzalez today."

In another nail biter, Lleyton has pulled off a stunning win! He defeated Arnaud Clement 6-7 6-3 7-6 after being down 5-0 in the 1st set.

Lleyton defeated Hantschk 6-1 4-6 6-4 1st rd Hamburg Masters Series. He will play Clement tomorrow, third match on centre court.

"Lleyton Hewitt produced his most ruthless performance in an ATP final at the Pacific Life Open Sunday, beating Gustavo Kuerten 6-1, 6-1 to claim his 19th career singles title and his second Tennis Masters Series shield. Hewitt, who last year conceded just three games to Tim Henman in the Indian Wells final, successfully defended a title for the fifth time. The Australian is the first player to defend the Indian Wells title since Michael Chang in 1996-97.

It was the second time Hewitt has won a title after saving match points during the tournament (San Jose 2002). In the first round Hewitt saved three match points (spread across two games) to defeat Younes El Aynaoui.

Lleyton defeated Spadea in straight sets 7-6 6-1. "Hewitt -- the 2001 U.S. Open champion and last year's Wimbledon winner -- fell behind Spadea 4-1 in the first set, but came back to break Spadea's service and catch him at 4-4. Both players spent most of their first set at the baseline, with many points decided when one or the other hit the ball into the net or out. Hewitt made 22 unforced errors and hit only 15 winners in the opening set, and Spadea had 16 unforced errors and 13 winners. Hewitt had one double fault in the tiebreaker, but Spadea had two. With the crowd chanting, ``Vinnie! Vinnie!'' after he won two points on Hewitt's serve to close within 6-5, Spadea hit his second serve into the net to lose the final point. Then Hewitt turned more aggressive and Spadea more tentative in the second set."

Lleyton defeated Robbie Ginepri 6-4 6-2. While Ginepri is talented his inexperience probably let him down today.
"Defending champion Lleyton Hewitt won through to the semifinals of the Pacific Life Open for the third consecutive year when he defeated Robby Ginepri 6-4, 6-2 Friday. Hewitt's victory ensured that he would retain the No.1 ranking that he would have surrendered to Andre Agassi had he lost today. Hewitt has held the No.1 position in the ATP Entry Rankings for 69 consecutive weeks - the second longest streak for any first-time No.1 behind Jimmy Connors (160 weeks)."

Lleyton defeated Coria 6-7, 6-4, 6-3 "from the outset, the two players traded superlative ground strokes, raising each other to increasing heights of performance.
Coria, demonstrating all his mighty promise, took the first set on a tie-break and the pair traded seven breaks of serve in the second before Hewitt snatched the one that mattered with a glorious backhand lob.
One break was enough in the final set but Hewitt could not rest for a moment, such was the breathtaking array of Coria’s talents.
At the joyous completion of his 6-7, 6-4, 6-3 victory in two hours and 35 minutes, Hewitt placed his hand on the Argentinian’s shoulder. It had been a real battle. One more to survive, and he can relax a bit."

Lleyton continued his winning form with a straight sets win over Kafelnikov 6-2 6-3. The match, however, was not as straight forward as the score line suggests. There were many protracted rallies and several breaks of serve.
