	Miloslav Mecir - Definition, explanation
		Mecir had a very strong year in 1987, when he won six singles and six doubles titles.
		Mecir defeated Lendl in the final of the Lipton International Players Championships in Key Biscayne, Florida, while Lendl won their matches in the final at Hamburg and the semi-finals of the French Open.
		Mecir was a member of the Czechoslovakian teams which won the World Team Cup in 1987 and the inaugural Hopman Cup in 1989.

	Miloslav Mecir - MensTennisForums.com
		Mecir was sometimes compared with John Bromwich who played decades earlier.
		Mecir was also the last player to use a wood racquet.
		Mecir then tightened up so badly that he was hitting 1st serves either way over the baseline or they would not even reach the net on the fly (land about half-way b/w where he served and the net - honestly).

	Tennis Radio Network - The Sound of Tennis
		By then Mecir, who had elected to stay at a cheap little hotel on the island instead of at the official hotel situated amongst the concrete jungle of downtown Miami, was loosening up and beginning to enjoy some aspects of America.
		If Mecir goes on landing fish the size of Lendl and McEnroe, trout and salmon may temporarily lose their appeal as he swims upstream to the highest source of that tortuous tennis river.
		Mats Wilander was suggesting in Dallas that Mecir has the ability to become the No 1 player in the world within two years and, after the way he has been playing in 1987, it would be foolish to bet against such a possibility.

	Washingtonpost.com: Karol Kucera Tops No. 1 Sampras
		The No. 20-ranked Slovak is coached by former tour professional Miloslav Mecir, a smooth-moving stylist known as the Big Cat.
		Mecir, who is from Kucera's hometown of Bratislava, was at courtside watching as his charge overran Sampras before a packed center court.
		Kucera once was a ballboy when Mecir, a two-time Grand Slam finalist and the 1988 Olympic champion, played in a tournament final in the former Czechoslovakia in the early 1980s.

		Hrbaty is not at home on the low-bouncing grasscourts, so much so that speculation is that Slovak captain Miloslav Mecir may pull The Dominator from the singles altogether, instead electing to go with the two Karols, Karol Kucera and Karol Beck.
		Curren says the extra-softness of the court is due to the rain, but Mecir is calling his bluff and saying the bounce is unnaturally low, so much so that it doesn't make for a fair contest, inferring he may be making a phone call to International Tennis Federation (ITF) officials.
		Mecir says the doubles point will likely turn out to be pivotal.

		Slovak captain Miroslav Mecir decided not to tinker with success, leaving his squad unchanged from their semifinal against Argentina.
		Hrbaty and Beck are expected to carry the load, with veteran Kucera and Mertinak rounding out a team that has overachieved in beating last year's champions Spain on the way to the final.

		The world number 57 had been selected by captain Miloslav Mecir at Thursday's draw despite not having played a match since the St Petersburg Open in October.
		The 23-year-old is still scheduled to play in Saturday's doubles with Michal Mertinak against Ljubicic and Mario Ancic, but his withdrawal from the singles is a huge blow to Mecir as he tries to land a first Davis Cup crown for Slovakia.
		The news, just hours before play was due to start in the Sibamac Arena, is more surprising as Beck said on Thursday his knee injury had improved significantly throughout the week.

		Mecir said he had decided his line-up on Thursday morning, adding that the rumours surrounding Beck had been an unfortunate distraction.

		Miloslav Mecir, an enigmatic genius who hit beautiful, soft passing shots when everyone else was beefing up their power, never won a grand slam title.
		That's why people who really like tennis - as opposed to those who love to see actresses in entourages and the glitz of the tour - are hoping that Federer goes on with it and, over the next few years, accumulates grand slam titles in Sampras style.

		Miloslav Mecir y su grupo han pagado la falta de consistencia de un cuarteto excesivamente sostenido por Dominik Hrbaty dada la ausencia de su número dos Karol Beck.
		Ni siquiera la fortaleza del Sibamac Arena, un recinto coqueto pero intimidatorio donde sucumbieron antes España, Holanda y Argentina, ha podido con la solidez de Croacia, que rompe con la determinación de la condición de local, una premisa que suele ser decisiva.
		Envuelta en una lesión de rodilla como excusa pero ensombrecida por un presunto positivo por dopaje, la baja del número dos centroeuropeo minó los recursos del equipo de Mecir.

		Seles has it in a brutal, raw manner, but you'd have to go back to Evert and Navratilova to find players who used the corners, the sidelines, the spins, the paces -- and then knew when to step in for the kill.
		Hingis' game combines elements of some of the most compelling players in tennis history -- from Evert and Goolagong to Miloslav Mecir, John McEnroe and even Jimmy Connors.
		But when compared with anyone, she declares that "I am most of all Martina Hingis" with a confidence that's both dazzling and potentially off-putting.
