GSTAAD, Switzerland - A day after Roger Federer lost at the Swiss Open citing back pains as a problem, local favourite Stanislas Wawrinka retired from his quarterfinal match Friday with the same injury. The second-seeded Wawrinka was unable to continue after a medical timeout more than two hours into his match with Feliciano Lopez, who was leading 6-4, 2-6, 4-3 at the time. Wawrinka, ranked No. 10, extended an unhappy run at his home tournament. He has won only five matches — all against players outside the top 50 — in seven visits since reaching the 2005 final. The fifth-seeded Lopez will face Robin Haase of the Netherlands in the clay-court tournament on Saturday. The 57th-ranked Haase beat 2011 champion Marcel Granollers of Spain 5-7, 6-3, 7-6 (5) in 2 hours, 30 minutes. Federers conqueror, Daniel Brands of Germany, failed to build to build on that success in losing 6-3, 6-4 to Victor Hanescu. Hanescu, the 2008 Gstaad champion, forced one service break in each set to ease to victory. Mikhail Youzhny will next face Hanescu after beating fourth-seeded Juan Monaco of Argentina 5-7, 6-4, 7-6 (7). The sixth-seeded Russian saved three match points in the deciding tiebreaker. Artis Gilmore Jersey .J. -- Seven games into a disappointing season, New York Giants defensive catalyst Jason Pierre-Paul is getting the feeling hes back. San Antonio Spurs Gear . Down by seven with 90 seconds left in regulation, thats where they looked comfortable. https://www.cheapspurs.com/976j-tracy-mcgrady-jersey-spurs.html . McCarthy, a player who played some games in the second tier for Wigan at the start of this season, would go on to shine inside Evertons midfield, outplaying the man he was brought in to replace, on one of the grandest stages in English football. On Saturday, it was fitting that Manchester Uniteds most recent dagger into the chest was delivered by Frenchman Yohan Cabaye, a wonderfully gifted central midfielder who put on an outstanding effort for Newcastle at Old Trafford. Swen Nater Jersey .ca! Hi Kerry, Heres an interesting one. I know its common knowledge that all players are responsible for their sticks. We witnessed that when Zack Kassian hit Edmontons Sam Gagner in the face after a missed check. LaMarcus Aldridge Jersey . Denis Coderre, the former federal MP who was elected mayor on Nov. 3, has drawn the ire of some Montreal Canadiens. During last nights game he tweeted: "Hello? Can we get a one-way ticket to (minor-league) Hamilton for David Desharnais please. New Zealand captain Kane Williamson slammed his sides extremely poor batting performance after they lost eight wickets for 16 runs to be bowled out in 23.1 overs, their shortest ODI innings, and go down to India by 190 runs.New Zealand came into the series decider on an equal footing. But conceding 269 on a slow surface may have made their task difficult, but they wouldnt have expected to be rolled over for 79. Williamson said there were no excuses for how abject they were.Its extremely disappointing. After a tough Test series to bounce back and show the heart that was required, the fight that we needed to go two-all against a very good Indian side, was a superb effort, he said after the match. But it is hard to look past out last performance right now, the emotion of just finishing the game. They got above-par initially with the bat on a tough surface. There are certainly no excuses from our end, we were extremely poor with the bat today.We want to be showing steps of improvement everyday. Thats whats so frustrating, because we failed as a batting unit. The spinners of the Indian side bowled very well but I dont think it justified losing eight wickets for 20 or so runs. We were poor and India were very good.While ruing the number of runs they conceded with the ball, Williamson lauded Indias batsmen for the partnerships they stitched together. First, Virat Kohli shared a 79-run stand with Rohit Sharma before putting on 71 runs with MS Dhoni. Kedar Jadhav and Axar Patel then added 46 crucial runs in 6.3 overs in the slog overs.The way the put together partnerships on a pitch that was slow was a very good effort. They kept going at five runs an over on this pitch, they certainly deserved to win today, he said. They were fantastic. At the half-way stage, although we knew they had a good score on the board on that surface, we knew if we could get partnerships together, who knows, we couldve done better. If we kept on a bit and played in excess in of 25-30 overs, with a bit of dew around, then who knows. But that was a long way off. WWe were never going to get there.ddddddddddddExcept for Tom Latham, and to a lesser extent, Kane Williamson, New Zealands batting has remained inadequate throughout the series. While Ross Taylor showed signs of returning to form in the last two games, he managed only 119 runs, with Martin Guptill (111) and Corey Anderson (31 from four matches) also not turning up. Williamson stressed on the need to replicate the consistency that Indias batsmen demonstrated.If you look at any winning performance, there are one or two significant performances. If you look at the India side, theres Virat [Kohli]. I think pretty much every game he made a significant contribution, he said. Sometimes the conditions werent easiest to bat but whoever that person is, we need a lot more. I think Tom Latham was outstanding.It was nice to see Guptill show that presence at the crease in the last couple of games, but we need to take those little good bits a lot further and look at someone like Virat, who I suppose… to get a 150 in that Mohali game was a hugely significant performance as opposed to perhaps a 40 or 50.Williamson believed there were lessons to be learnt from playing against a good side in tough conditions, and said Mitchell Santner was a highlight of their tour. With 10 scalps, Santner was New Zealands joint-highest wicket-taker in the Test series, along with Trent Boult. He was also their most economical bowler in the ODIs.He has been outstanding, a young cricketer who is newish to the side. Although conditions are favourable to spinners here there are a lot of spinners who come here and struggle, he said. I guess its because of the pace of the wicket against extremely good players of spin. Mitch has performed day in and day out. His change of pace and his ability to spin the ball was a great asset to have. Not to mention his batting and his fielding as well. [We] look forward to seeing his progression in the future. ' ' '
