The tennis guys in the American media are liking Andy a lot at the moment. Some pretty nice stuff. He's obviously always been pretty popular in the US so the high opinions are maybe not that surprising but there's some nice stuff getting flung in his direction and some nice comparisons. http:...

Qualifying (British matches): This event requires players to go through a gruelling 4 rounds to reach the main draw. Makes you wonder why they didn't play Melilla instead which has a weaker field and only 3 rounds, even if it is on the nasty red stuff. Rd1: M Gibb v J Jackson A Hawkins v J Bigot (Be...

Have been watching quite a bit of this over the last few days... Saw Thiemo De Bakker in action against Ljubicic yesterday. I was impressed, he's definately got the game to be top 100. Can hit big shots off both sides, especially the forehand and he works the points really well. Not afraid to come i...

Q: How good is Murray? Can he win a Grand Slam tournament one day? Kraijcek: He is very, very good. I really wanted him in Rotterdam. Unfortunately for us, he wanted to defend his title in San Jose. He certainly has the potential to win a Grand Slam tournament and Brad Gilbert was a good appointment as coa...

So Saturday saw Michael Sprott knocking out Fraudley Harrison in the 3rd rounds with a massive uppercut. Is this the end of Harrison's career ? Personally, I think the loss to Sprott was inevitable. Harrison had that dire loss against Danny Williams where he basically didn't try to fight an...

Does anybody know anything about his schedule? Why hasn't he played any tournament so far? He would get some WC without a doubt. He should play some matches if he wants play for GB.
