  • Blake knows he needs a quick turnaround on clay

    4/28/09 5:21 PM | Johan Lindahl
    Blake knows he needs a quick turnaround on clay American James Blake is desperate to beginning turning his misery clay season around after losing in a pair of first-round outings.

    The 29-year-old suffered quickly in Rome with an exit to a Romanian qualifier, an eye-opener for the veteran who once stood firmly in the Top 10.

    Blake remains cautiously optimistic. "I've played worse before and turned it around and had some good results. Hopefully this time it'll be the same".

    "I'll have some bad times and there will be plenty of ups too, hopefully, still in my career".

    The player who broke his neck on a Rome practise court in 2004, admitted that he's suffering. "So far it hasn't been good (on clay), it wasn't my best tennis lately. I'd love to snap my fingers and magically turn it around and be playing better, but I don't have those powers", said Blake.
