Good draw for Andy....could have been worse...Kendrick is a big server and it maybe closer than we may think. Still Andy in 3 for me..on his best surface...in his favourite event !!! -- Edited by Drew at 10:16, 2006-08-26

Its worth noting that Mathieu's form on hard court has been dreadful. He has won some matches on clay, including a couple of rounds at the French, but the last time he won on a surface other than clay was in Indian Wells at the start of March. He was knocked out in the first round of Quee...

Thought I'd open up this thread. RobC will you post up the table this week as I'm going away until Thursday and won't be able to update it. Having had a quick look at the draw for New Haven, Andy is threatened from behind by only two people, Jose Acasuso and Fernando Verdasco both of whom must win to overt...

It would be great to see Josh win, but it wont be easy. Llodra is having a poor year by his standards, his biggest result of the year being an SF in a challenger, but reached the 4th round at the US Open in 2004, so he obviously feels comfortable here. Anyway, lets hope that Jos...
