Have just checked Monday's OOP and guess what Andy's match is scheduled for... ...3rd Match on Centre Court after Federer and Safina. Another 3 set victory I hope. I dare say I could get used to the sense of anti-climax that Andy currently brings to his matches as he hasn't really been tested at all sinc...
The draw for this should take place at 10am tomorrow (Friday) and will be covered on Radio Wimbledon. The British participants are: (3) Andy Murray (WC) Alex Bogdanovic (WC) Joshua Goodall (WC) James Ward (WC) Daniel Evans
I thought it might be interesting to see how the home WCs have done in the other slams over the last 12 months compared to how our WCs did at Wimbledon: 2008 US Open - 4 straight sets losses in R1 (Evans, Jenkins, Delic, Krajicek to Golubev, Nieminen, Ginepri & Calleri respectively) - 1 four set loss...
We should dedicate a thread to the inredible Rens. They are both good prospects and Jesica, the younger one, has to be considered as one of the best '94 born players in the world. Jennifer : right. Jessic...

There is a chance here for Natalie Beazant to make further progress towards the top 100, as our current highest ranked girl other than those directly accepted for Wimbledon. R1 (L32) Joanna Henderson (GBR) Vs Meryem Chaoui (MAR) (3) Clothilde De Bernardi (FRA) Vs Francesca Stephenson (GBR) Ellies...
see the Charles Sale article in the Daily Mail today :- "The beleaguered Lawn Tennis Association have suffered yet another blow with Andy Murray's mother Judy handing in her notice as their talent and performance manager for Scotland. Judy's two-year deal, signed in May 2007, was up for renew...
The pair have met twice before: in Round 1 in St Petersburg last year, when Andy beat Troicki by 3 & 3, & in the last 16 in Miami earlier this year, when Andy triumphed by 1 & on his way to the title. I can't imagine him failing to make it three out of three on Saturday...

3rd on Centre Court again...somehow I get the feeling that Murray will be 3rd on Centre Court for everyone of his matches, at least for the rounds where he can be. He's following Del Potro vs. Hewitt and Wozniaki vs. Kirilenko, so it could be a while before he gets on court, as both those matches could wel...
The match is scheduled second on court 4, after Melzer v Becker. H2H Elena (Bally) Baltacha v Kirsten (Flipper) Flipkens 2-0 Bally won 6-1 6-1 in Jersey (2005) Bally won 6-3 6-3 in Torhout (2008) Both matches were indoors, with Bally going on to win the tournament.

From the BBC: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/tennis/8117604.stm Hope he doesnt he is not finished with singles IMO. And the piece ends with some drivel from Tiger Tim I am shocked to say as I was a big Tiger fan when he was playing but what is he saying...give the WC's to younger players who can get t...

3rd match on Centre Court, after Venus and Roddick. They have met 3 times before, with Andy winning all 3, but they haven't met since Miami 2007. I think Andy has improved a bit since then , I'm not sure Kendrick has - and after all he is now pushing 30. If Andy doesn't win this I'll eat my hat.
I wanted to make new threads for all the 1st round matches (singles wise) for the Brits at Wimby if thats ok. Just to give them a bit more space rather than trying to find what people said about a certain match in a clogged topic about all of them. Anyway Josh plays Llodra today on Court 2 later on. Yosh has a h...
