Ryan's Hope

I don't have a whole lot of faith in Ryan Harrison ever becoming a Top 10 player. But it sure will be fun watching him try. The cute 19-year-old from Louisiana rallied to defeat Potito Starace in the first round in Miami, 6-7 (6-8), 6-4, 6-4.

I am glad someone else loves this firey teenager as much as I do...I even got excited when I got a tweet from him; he answered questions from fans and I asked him what he needs to do to be successful on the court this season and he said "mental stability in every match." I hope he does well in his career USA tennis needs another star

I saw Ryan play a few matches at Indian Wells last week, and he could easily have made quarters if he would have maintained "mental stability" in Simon match. He hits the ball hard and, imho, he just needs to learn to be more patient as to when he goes for his winners and he could be top ten - oh yeah, and maybe quit breaking a raquet every match (although he did seem to get more pumped up after each raquet abuse warning). Definitely easy on the eyes
