new schedule: 

lets wait and see.


I've been trying to post this Stu Fraser article since it appeared on ToL on Tuesday, but for some reason, the Archive site wouldn't play ball until this morning.  It contains a diagram of Andy's injury & concludes with SF's suggested schedule (teerminating with the Olympics at the end of July).  This more recent article on the Beeb site suggests that there is no clear-cut timetable for his return, while Matthew Syed advises him to go when he's ready.  I love the Dylan Thomas reference & there's an interesting quote from Theodore Roosevelt.

Hope Andy is able to be back for the grass season. Dont recall he really liked the clay! Still number 62 in the world, so he must still be playing OK. With Jack and Dan in the 40s and Cam in the 30s still think he has plenty to give until he is ready to go. Get well soon Sir A!

I have belatedly got round to listening to last Thursday's Radio 5 Live 30th anniversary "5 Live's 30 Defining Sporting Moments". Super programme and apparently for rights reasons it will only be on the BBC Sounds schedule for 4 more days if you want some really great radio commentary memories, particularly for these that are well into a range of sports.

In the accompanying vote, the great British public in their wisdom voted Andy's 2013 Wimbledon triumph as #3

#2 was England's Rugby Union World Cup 2003 win - boo 

#1 was the London Olympics 2012 Super Saturday with the Ennis, Rutherford and Farah golds in 44 minutes - still quite a long moment but fair dos

Thanks Indy - Id missed the result and in fact I voted for those 3 options as my list and reckon thats pretty much spot on as the 3 events at the top!

Andy doesnt need surgery and his boot is off. No return date yet, though

As reported by the Beeb earlier today.

At last a bit of good news.  smile  Our man has accepted a wild card for the Geneva Open in two weeks' time & will then play at Roland-Garros.  He's apparently even contemplating playing doubles with Dan Evans at the latter in preparation for the Olympics.

Great to hear. Hope that works out!

So looking like

Geneva
RG
Stuttgart
Queens
Wimbledon
Olympics?

Maybe a Surbiton wildcard appearance if he lost early in RG?

Will Andy and Evo play doubles as well in Bordeux?

Andy's brace of golds puts him top of the mens singles table. While a hattrick would look a longshot, maybe he might have a chance to add another medal to his total tally in one of the 3 disciplines.

 Not sure how it compares with past years lists, it looks like it has more top 100 than I have seen in the past, but I guess one or two may drop away if they get into FO second week
