Qatar Open: Second Round Featured Match-Up
Most of the match-ups in the Qatar Open second round are still between a top draw player and a relative unknown. But not this one. We're only in the second round but Philipp Kohlschreiber of Germany (#34) will have to slug it out with big server Ivo Karlovic of Croatia (#73). Will Philipp be able to withstand the lightining serves of the Croat? Well, I think he can. Philipp is grossly underrated and a clear underachiever. So for him to prove that he is a Top 20 caliber player, he should be able to withstand the barrages of strong serves from the Croat.
