Does anybody else get frustrated the way Andy plays against jocky,fed and rafa? He uses the same counter punching style every time that rarely works. I appreciate it works against lower ranked players, but the top guys know what's coming time after time after time. In my humble view he should follow...

Hmmm. Not the easiest first round, though unless Andy has got out of bed on the wrong side, he should be OK. Route to the final, though to be honest I will be surprised if he gets there: Dubai is Fed/Djoko territory R1: Gilles MullerR2: James McGee(WC)/Joao Sousa (The Portugese one)QF: David Goffin/Ma...

I was trying to figure out Andy's chances. As far as I know he's playing a 250 now and has a 500 and 1000 to come. Is this correct, or has he got more tournies to play too? Below is the scenario according to http://live-tennis.eu/race. For me it's not looking too hopeful
