I'm back :P . As i said , i've lost in Monte Carlo to Verdasco in 2nd round. Then skipped Barcelona and went to an atp 250 event Oeiras. I had to face many tough players there... Got bye in the first round . Beat easily Pospisil in the second 6/1 6/4 and lost to Robredo in the third 2-6 4-6 (i am having problems with the spanyards so far :( robredo , verdasco, nadal and may be ferrer). Then i went to madrid and trained my forehand and service a lot more than backhand and other skills. Felt better of course :D but still lost in the 1st round against robredo 3-6 3-6. The last step before garros for me was Roma , where i beat Smyczhek in the 1rd round 6/2 6/0 , Nedyovesov in second 6/1 6/0 and lost to Stan "The Man" Wawrinka in the third 1/6 3/6. My next stop and last clay tournament will be Roland Garros and i face ALbero Rodriguez (number 294 in the world) in 1rd round , The M.Russel in the second and SOusa/Melzer in the third. In the 4th i may bet Tsonga if he wins all of his matches, but this time there are no spanyards or murray till semi's where i can get Nadal/Ferrer. Wish me luck :P

Krish 4971 : With your unbelievable results against Nadal, I think you should raise AI's level a little bit lol ;)

iopzza : Easy draw until the semis, you'll probably reach your second Grand Slam semi final in a row.

Rafa : It's not common for a Rafa's fan to play with Berdych haha ! And yes with an offensive player like the Czech (big serve, big forehand but not a very good defender), the defensive spaniards colony (Nadal, Ferrer, Robredo, Montanes...) will be your biggest challenge, especially on clay.

So, back to my career, in my last post, I was in Roland Garros final against Rafa...Well no surprise, he destroyed me for the fifth time in a row this season : 6/0 6/1 6/1...

To follow Novak's real calendar, I've decided not to play Queen's or Halle, and to go directly to London. And what an accomplishment, I've won Wimbledon, and I'ven't dropped any set on my way to the title !
6/2 6/0 6/0, then 6/0 6/0 6/0 against two qualifiers, 6/2 6/1 6/1 vs Janowicz, 6/0 6/1 6/3 vs F.Lopez, 6/0 6/1 6/4 vs Anderson, 6/4 6/2 7/6 against Federer, and 6/1 6/4 6/4 vs Murray in the final.
I was lucky that Rafa disappeared on the 4th round.

I have to say I'm very proud of myself, winning my first Grand Slam on incredible level lol.
But is it me, or Wimbledon is by far the easiest Grand Slam to win ? I don't know if it's the grass, the court view, or the opposition, but in all my seasons and/or careers, with Djokovic, Dimitrov or even Tsonga, I've always succeeded to win it, while i've often struggled just to reach the second week in Australia, RG or USO...

So for now, in this 2014 season :
Australian Open ---> Final, lost to Nadal
Roland Garros ---> Final, lost to Nadal
Wimbledon ---> Winner, vs Murray

My goal is to win all four Slams on incredible level, one down, 3 to go !

So big stuff since last update. I lost in the QF of Madrid and then had an even greater disappointment in Rome losing in the 3rd Round. I lost in the 4th round at Roland Garros (my best result there) but missed out on a chance to go deeper since I would have played an unranked opponent had I won that match. Then I went to Wimbledon. I got through the first and second rounds easy enough. The third round was a little challenging. In the 4th round I played (1) Lindsay Davenport. I had a winning record against her and was able to capitalize and went through to the quarterfinals. There I played (9) Justine Henin who I had only played once but back when we were both lesser players. I was able to come through that match too. I had an easy match in the semi's as I had to play a surprise semifinalist. Then in the finals I had to face (3) Martina Hingis. This was tough for me. I had never beaten her before nor had I come close. But fighting my way through I finally beat her and won WIMBLEDON! My first grandslam at 17. I couldn't believe it!!!!! I'm now ranked #7, only a gain of two, but I am a grandslam champion!!! Two titles this year (Indian Wells, and Wimbledon). It was only my third career title. (Moscow, Indian Wells, and Wimbledon). Amazing!

Playing as a made up character - a tall serve volleyer, with a powerful forehand and a weaker but very accurate backhand.... playing on Incredible 2.

I started game in 2003, now it is 2014. So I have completed 11 full seasons. Started at 100 in the world. I first made the world number one ranking in week 41 of 2003 (by far the quickest I have ever done it, usually takes me a couple of seasons minimum), and have held it continually since week 45 of 2003 to (currently) week 12 of 2014. Though I am getting old and I think Djokovic might overtake me before the end of the year, he just beat me in the final of the Ausi Open.

I have won 9 Ausi Opens, 9 French Opens, 8 Wimby, 11 US Opens. I am still undefeated at US Open. Won 9 WTF, though lost in the final for the last two years (first to Del Potro, second to Murray). Won 59 Masters titles not including WTFs.

The player that I have had the most trouble against is Federer w/l 47:19, particularly on fast courts (I've never beaten him on quick indoor courts like the Paris Masters) but have dominated him on Clay and Hard. I have never had any real trouble against Nadal (42:8), including giving him a 6-0, 6-0, 6-1 drubbing in FO final in 2006. I've found that beating him is about getting the blend of crazy all out attack with draining long rallies where I wait for him to make errors, knowing that when neither of us have any energy left I can use twist kick serves to push him way back in the court and then sneak in to the net. Also I attack his forehand (not backhand), and then move forwards in the court to play my first volley in to his weaker backhand (if that helps). Angles and power hitting don't work so well against him, he just whips them down the line. So push him back push him back push him back. And be patient.

Recently flat power players like Del Potro have caused me the most trouble. I can't deal with the pace as easily and they break my volleying a bit.

I very seldom play WT, but when I do and have to play Nadal, that seems to be the strategy. Never had any problems against him either.
Impressive stats :)

Wow Algo ! I have to say I'm impressed. How many months did you need to play 11 full seasons ?
Being number one the first year with a created player on incredible level, it's a hell of an accomplishment, congrats !

So I had a big let down after winning Wimbledon. I lost in the 2nd Round of Toronto pretty badly. I rebounded from that to make it to the finals of Cincinnati. Then I won my second straight Grandslam at the US Open!!!! So I have three tournament wins for the year (Indian Wells, Wimbledon, and the US Open) and I'm currently ranked #4 in the world. I also have a realistic shot at number one. Right now, I'm number one in the race for number one but everyone from like 1-10 is like within 1000 or so points of each other. So it will be interesting. It would be amazing if I could manage to nab that number one position.

Update Career Bests

Australian: 4th Round
French: 4th Round
Wimbledon: Winner (2001)
US Open: Winner (2001)

Titles: 2000 (Moscow), 20001 (Indian Wells, Wimbledon, US Open)

YEah I know but I like the style of play of berdych and I looked for a player in the top ten with big serve und big forehand playing very aggressive :D

so my carreer goes on:
Dubai:
1.round berdych vs chardy 6:1 6:2
2. round berdych vs Querrey 6:4 6:4
quarter final berdych vs roger vasselin 6:4 6:1
semifinal berdych vs Gasquet 3:6 1:6 very very poor from me there :roll:

then going to my favourite Masters 1000 in Indian Wells and Miami really loving them! :applause:

Indian Wells:
1. round bye
2. round Berdych vs Granollers 6:1 6:4
3. round berdych Davydenko 6:4 6:0
4.round berdych vs Nishikori 7:6(4) 6:3
Quater final berdych vs federer 6:4 3:6 6:3 this was an incredible close match, federer won 2 points more than me but I won the important one
seminal berdych vs Haas 7:6(3) 6:4 very close too
NOW I am in the final!! :dance: :applause: cant believe it , my opponent will be Del Potro, wish me good luck guys :applause: :applause:

Then in the second i had to came back from a 0-4 :D managed to make it to tiebreak where won 7-5 points. The third was even worst , he didnt lead 4-0 , but he was even better , i had to bring my A game , from the Australian Open 1/4 final against murray ! We both were broken 2 times , but managed to play another tie break which i won again this time 8/6. So 6/3 7/6 7/6 . Now i am playing Tsonga in the 4th round.

I finally did it! And before the end of the year! I nabbed the number one ranking for the first time. So after winning the US Open, I went on to win Tokyo. Then I lost in the semifinals of Beijing. It was quite the smack down. Majority of the points were less the five shots. And honestly, most of them I only got to hit one ball!!!! I served. Smack! The computer hit a winner. I returned. Smack! The computer hit a winner. These weren't even shots I had a chance to even run down! It didn't matter what type of shots I hit in return! Has this ever happened to anyone else!!!! LOL!!! It made my gaining of the number on ranking look bad hahaha!!! But who cares. I'm number one with now 4 titles this year.

I played doubles World Tour offline last November using tour setting (incredible10 cpu, both partner and opponents, danger zone on, average auto-pos). I team up with random CPU with 1500+ stats every season. Actually I only played in slams and played one season properly and beat every one in straight sets with the score of 6/0 or 6/1 every set. :unsure:

So I get bored and and enter mtkil until I meet team that has two players with 1750+ stats. Then i still beat those teams 6/0 or 6/1 every set :fear: So I started to only play with team with two guys at 1800+ stats. Somehow I can finally get Djokovic+Murray in Wimbledon final after many years :blackeye: And then they are so strong (both guys with 1900+ stats) that I could only beat them by something like 6/3 6/2 :lol:

So I won all doubles GS from start to finish 8-)
Singles Titles and Finalists:
250: Kuala Lumpur '15
