    15-year-old American wins in Houston :-)

    Ryan Harrison, a 15-years-old American, beat Pablo Cuevas in Houston today. :-)

    Excellent win for the kid.

    And on clay.  It's a miracle. lol!

    His 13-year-old brother, Christian, is supposed to be even better.

    Great news! Do you know anything about him or his brother? Where can we check him out? A new Andre?

     Pblo Cuevas? I think that was the name of the Tequilla I was drinking before going to see the new Stones movie at the IMAX.Oh that was Jose Cuervo..seriously, let the kid be the new Donald Young for a little while before we pronounce him the new Agassi

    To view video highlights of Harrison (both Ryan and brother Christian) in action and see his video interview click here: http://www.tennisweek.com/video/default.sps?assetid=569237 saw him hit (not play just hit) once and like the fact he is realy trying to develop an all-court game. His dad is a teaching pro so he grew up with the game.

    I have a Cuevas from Uruquay in Xiowas's contest whi seems permanently stuck below 100 but this must be the younger brother. A dynasty.! Zoo Tennis covers Ryan well but we have seen too many come and go at that age.

    I must not drink before posting. A 15 year old beats my pick for Xiowa's contest. There is no little brother and it is typical of my picks that he would go down in a clay court  match.

     Oh well I have a ticket to see the Pope outside of my parish church St. Joseph's in NYC so I will wear a red blazer and hope you all see me on TV. Despite the fact I have to be there at three p.m. and he isn't coming until 6p.m. it is a great thrill for us since we are a small parish tucked away near Gracie mansion and the children in the school and the parish can scarcely believe he is coming to us. Sorry for the diversion!!!

    Peggye- You have to tell us how your meeting with the Pope goes. There are so many different opinions out there on him. Enjoy, hope you have a wonderful time.

    Harrison is ok but he got absolutely TUNED last summer at Kalamazoo by Mike McClune in the quarters.  Harrison double faulted on break point each set and was NOT in the match.
