James Blake a new father recently also had reason to celebrate notching up career win 350. He defeated Ryan Harrison 1-6 6-3 7-5 at BB&T Atlanta Open. He had failed 6 times previously to reach that landmark this season.

Good to see life in the old guard of American tennis.

Hopefully Blake can pull off one more successful NA hardcourt swing!

Nice SHBH, fairly crushing FH...abit mentally wobbly and movement not the best...but a nice player and nice guy too.

On the other foot, a shame for Harrison...I was expecting him to be top 20 by end of year.

Each time you think Harrison is on his way to the big time he seems to falter. Age still very much on his side of course.

And - unlike policemen - tennis players seem to be getting older & older these days .... Erm

Probably the biggest FH I've ever seen (along with Gonzo).

Agree lags...but I think he'll get there, he's a quality player with a fairly robust attitude, approach and game.

Agree also emanc...along with Magnus Gustaffssen from the 90s too (massive...they called him the "walking forehand"...lol).
