RE: Week 9 - ATP 500 - Dubai (Hard)


Muzz has beaten 2 of the top 3 players in the world at a tournament before (Rafa WR 1 and Fed WR 3 to win Toronto in 2010) but is going to have to go somewhere he has never gone before to win this tournament - as far as I can tell, he has never beaten 3 of the top 7 players in the world in the same tournament.

The closest he has come was beating 3 of the top 8 (8, 7 & 6 to win Montréal in 2009) and 3 of the top 9 twice - 9, 7 & 3 to win Miami 2009 and 6, 9 & 2 to reach the semis of the Masters Cup in Shanghai in 2008.

Yes, I would expect Andy to gain some significant ground.  The top 4 could close up quite a bit since last year Djokovic beat Nadal in both finals with Federer a semi finalist in each.

Re injury last year, no, Andy's problems were only really in the mind as he played confused ****  after his pasting by Djokovic in the Aus Open final.  Great to see him sounding and more importantly playing so much better this year after his good showing in Australia.
