Have to say, you can help but laugh at the British media and their reporting of British Tennis players. If one of our players wins, its always reported as BRIT player.....etc. But when they lose, their real nationality comes out. Here are a few examples:
Greg Rusedski - Good old Greg. Been at the fore...
greg has just scraped in here as last man, Alex is currnetly 6 out. i would expect greg not to play here, straight after the DC, so al may need 5 more to pull out? i wonder how likley that will be. Any one know if any of the players below are carrying injures etc? Mumbai 1 Robredo, Tommy ESP 7 [col...
Jamie Feaver came through qualifying here but has drawn the Top Seed in Round 1.
Amadeus Fulford Jones lost 1 and to a Namibian player!, while Alex Miotto won tough tie-breaks in the second and third sets to reach Round 2.
Ed Seator also plays here.
I have some bad news regarding Colin, I'm not sure whether he'll be playing tennis again.
It's been a difficult time for him since returning from Bronx and instead of playing the GB and European indoor circuit, he's enrolled to finish his university degree [he's completing his honours year] at S...
Yes music to my ears, i got wind of the draw-EXCLUSIVE- NOT SURE WHEN THEY PLAY, I IMAGINE TUESDAY AS MURRAY IS IN UKRAINE
Well i think it has to be Murray again to make it 4-0 against Henman. We will see how the jet lag will effect murray
Andy as you all probably know is teaming up with his bro in the doubles are up against Canada's no 1 singles player Dancevic and Ginepri who to my knowledge haven't even teamed before in doubles.
My prediction is that Andy and Jamie will come through the tie in straight sets hopefully ;D

I don't think Tursunov particularly needs a long introduction He's the world no 22, 4-1 winning record over Henman, reached rd3 of RG and USO and rd4 of Wimby aswell as the final of ATP Los Angeles, semis of Washington and quarters of Queens.
Suffice to say, it's going to be one heck of a ta...
Surely Alex has a chance to send a chilling warning to Federer and the transitional GB number 1 Murray tomorrow against Henman.
often when the serious underdog alex can put in very good performances and if he can hold his nerve and serve well this match may well be a closer run affair than many p...
Martin Lee has made the main draw cut for this indoor challenger in France this week.
Richard Bloomfield was 2nd on the alternates but there has only been 1 withdrawal so far so it looks as though he'll be top seed in the qualies unless there have been any last-minute withdrawals. We shall know when...

Andy Kennaugh, Chris Eaton and Myles Blake all remain down under for this event starting Monday 25th September. All in the main draw again. Alun Jones tops the pile here. Outdoor hard courts. Nice for the tan !!! We may see Robert Dee make an appearance again in the qualies but who knows as he seems to ent...
Ok lets get betting again but be warned.... NO cheating (UBF) NO match-fixing (Eblunt) NO more loan-sharking (Mkkreuk)...unless its for me ! New Rule. If Bankrupt twice (Andymonium) then the second time you can get 20 AMS but this is a loan....once you get to 100AMs it will be tak...
Some info on the opposition:
Safin is currently ranked 151 in doubles [he peaked at 71 in 2002]. However, the reason why his ranking is so low is because he plays doubles so infrequently. If he played on a regular basis I'm sure he'd be in the top 50. This year, his ATP doubles highlights are making th...
Qualifying:
Rd1:
M Phillips [GB][1] v bye [Great to see Morgan back playing futures, he should be able to get through comfortably here, his main test will come in the final qualies round when he's likely to face the 9th seed who's ranked 816.]
J Ward [GB][16] v D Florez Cohen [Esp][unrank...

Alex is in the main draw which will be probably released tomorrow, I think it's going to be a day later than usual as the qualifying goes on until Monday. The indoor hard courts should suit him, hopefully he gets a good draw.
Jamie Murray is in qualifying. He's had a good win in rd1, over a 20 year old un...
