... These two have met once before with Andy winning 6-2, 5-7, 7-6(1) in the semi-final of St. Petersburg in 2007. ... ... Youzhny is coming into some real form recently after an iffy start to the year. He is one of the underestimated players out t...
Interesting article in Scotland on Sunday today. ... ... Apart from telling how the poor guy will be all alone in Florida this Christmas, aww... it is interesting to see his logic for bypassing Doha this time and getting to Australia earlier. Seems...
Wot no thread yet? ... ... Andy leads the H2H 6-1, but the first five wins were before Nando pulled his socks up and became the player he is today. And the last win, he had a bit of an injury. He is the sort of hard hitter to whom I feel Andy is a b...
Not before 7pm UK time tomorrow on the main court. I have to be out and can't record a livestream without being around. ... ... These two have never played at any level. They are exactly the same age, to the day! The Argentinian is at present rank...

I missed all the fun yesterday evening, as I was out for a meal, but by all accounts, Andy's going to have to raise his game a bit if he's to get the better of Montañés. That said, they've played one another twice this year, in the first rounds of ...
... Obviously had my head buried in the sand as I didn't hear any rumours about this - ... Andy will be wearing Adidas kit from Jan 2010 starting at the Hopman Cup. Has this been general knowledge for months? Article posted on Tennishead site in t...
Good to be starting one of these threads again. The match will be third on the Stadium Court, after the Almagro/Ferrer encounter, which is scheduled to kick off at 14.00 GMT (technically the fifth, but the first of the first two gets under way at 10...

Shame about Britain losing to Poland and slipping down to the third tier in the Davis Cup. Although Murray even admitted that it's where we "deserve" to be at the moment. It sounds like he's not very willing to continue to play in the compe...
People are, not surprisingly, starting to think about how soon Andy will have a chance to break into the top three. He can't quite do it (even theoretically) by the end of the year, though he could get very close in the unlikely event that he won eve...

Andy starts with Gulbis again after their 2nd round Wimbledon meeting. ... ... So, has Gulbis been showing much signs of improving on this year's rather erratic performances ? Well no, and has managed to exit both Canada and Cincinnatti to players ...
I was wondering if there is a significant difference in the rankings if only best-of-3 set matches were considered as Andy tries to defend his Cincinatti title. ... ... So I did a little checking... ... ...
Rog beat Oz Brat 3 & 4 to set up this SF. If memory serves, the pair haven't met since the Indian Wells semi in March, when Andy's win in three sets made the head-to-head 6-2 in his favour. Could be interesting. Not sure I want to predict a wi...
