A Contradiction Goes a Long Way

People are complex things. At Wenzel, we acknowledge this, and at times celebrate it. That's why we can root for the horribly inconsistent Marat Safin, who somehow managed to lose his Cincinnati opening match to the talented, but very young, Gael Monfils of France, going 4-6, 5-7, so at least it appears he made a game of it, while at the same time we get behind the ever steady Martina Hingis and wish her the best of luck this weekend en route to what we hope is her second title of the year. Back in Cincinnati, with Safin out, Federer out, and now, Nadal out, perhaps its time to get behind Andy Murray and wonder out loud if Brad Gilbert is the greatest tennis coach of all time?
