The amount of quarters Berdych has monged up in his career.

Same with people like Tsonga.

Has he even won a Masters title?

EDIT - looked it up. Paris Masters over 12 years ago. Fedder/Roddick/Djokovic have beaten him in 3 other finals.

Bit of righteous fury seems to have done him good.
He isn't going to hang on to a top tier player though.
Not over five.
See Murray was supporting the men playing three sets like the ladies, lame.

Might not be a bad idea in the first few rounds of a Slam.

Wimbledon is the only slam that make the men play best of 5 in the doubles all the way through, I think.

I think they should scrap mixed doubles, make the mens doubles three sets and make the women play five not abbreviate the mens.
