| | Nikolay Davydenko (RUS) |
| | There are no official reports, but there is good reason to believe Nikolay Davydenko has pulled out of Russia's Davis Cup tie with the Indians this weekend.
Mahesh Bhupathi, a regular on the doubles team for India, said on his Twitter page; "Just heard Davydenko has pulled out of the tie. That should get the boys fired up".
If this is indeed true, Mikhial Youzhny will take the number one mantle for the home team, and will combat the opposition's best player the in-form Devvarman.
Stay tuned for more news and any possible replacement. |

| | Stinker draw for second seed Davydenko in Rotterdam. First match with Feli Lopez although the Spaniard is still in Jo'burg and will probably be tired after all his matches at altitude (Lopez, though, does lead series 5-1!)...then either Baghdatis or Blake.
Baghy has beaten Niko 3 times out of 4 attempts, Blake has won all 7 encounters with the Russian.
This should really tell us whether or not Davy has turned the corner for good with his recent form. |

| | Great quote from Davydenko: "I am not Paris Hilton."
The lovable Davy did say that but then went on to explain:
"I don't want to be like this. I don't want to be like Nadal, Federer. These guys I never see at breakfast. They stay in the room and take room service. For me it's better go downstairs, take breakfast or dinner somewhere, not to be so famous."
More significantly he also said this - it's amazing what confidence can do:
"Before, nobody was scared (of me). Now everyone is scared. It's an interesting feeling. Now I feel like I can beat everyone."

| | Davydenko on his chances of winning the Open:
"Why not? I can win it for sure. I beat everyone already in the Top 10. It doesn't matter if it’s a Grand Slam or another tournament. I feel I can continue my level and beat these guys here."
"Before, I knew that Federer always on important points would win. I beat Federer (in London) and my mind started to give me a chance. If I play against Federer, in my mind I don’t lose the match beforehand now. I just fight and I feel I can win this match. It just changed the way I think. It doesn’t matter where it is."
Seems like things have changed. |

| | Davydenko on winning in Doha, and his chances of winning his very first grand slam at the Australian Open - starting a week tomorrow.
"I did not come here expecting to win. I am surprised that i have won". "It is amazing feeling to have won here. I have played semifinals and finals here but never won."
"For three sets it`s really interesting". "There it will be five sets. It`s different conditions - here it`s 18 degrees, cold and there it can be 30 degrees".
"It ought to be the same but when you get there it always feels different. But i have the confidence, so we will see."
Davydenko also became only the second player a long with David Nalbandian to have beaten Federer and Nadal in the same tournament on two occasions. |
