At the ripe old age of 34, Tommy Haas is still pounding the tennis court, still causing damage here and there. This time around, he defeated Italian Filippo Volandri (ranked #81) in the first round, 63 06 64 64. Currently ranked #112 in the world, Haas has a good chance of making it into the third round, as his opponent in the second round is Kazakh Sergiy Stakhovsky (ranked #84). As for me, I hope reaches as far as the quarterfinals! If he just plays good enough, he can achieve it! He has reached the 4th round here twice, in 2002, and 2009.
