Del Potro was looking out of sorts for the entire tournament but I'm glad he went out to a worthy opponent, and he went down swinging. There's little shame in ...

I knew he would win a slam sooner than later. He is my fav player-introduced me to tennis. Such a gentleman on court, in winning and defeat. Has come a long long way since Fed gave him a show down at Aussie Open. Great work, great mind and determination Juan Martin. Hope you go all the way to the top!

I would like the contact for Juan Martin del Potro as I am a fan of his.
I think he is a wonderful player and I hope he wins a grand slam soon.
I don't know whether he thinks he has fans being No.5 in the world but he certainly does. He should fear no one when playing because he can beat them all.
I would like a reply please. My email address is: jeannette@silvester101.fsnet.co.uk. Thank you
