    Met him in Dublin Airport this morning. He was just coming through the arrivals gate as I waited for a friend?
    Is he playing here in the coming week?

    He's come to get his €300 back from pp. As Lloyd said in the bbv Hansen had $900,000 on Nadal and went to sweat him at Roland Garros instead of playing a $40k buy-in. Well we know the rest so €300 is probably looking jucier than ever before.

    Hansen obv forgot it didnt go to 5 sets.

    Being one of the few people here to actually have met Gus (and Nicky). I can honestly say that Gus is well pissed at being compared to him.

    A pissed Gus is not a thing you want to have in your living room at 1.00am.
