Surely it would be much more satisfying for Jamie to once again establish a regular partnership that can work together, improve and earn there place in the rankings.
I remember in an audience with the Murrays radio programme earlier in the year Jjamie saying that it can be difficult for doubles partnerships to keep going on a very long term basis because in time players can start getting annoyed with being with the other guy on such a log term basis. Jamie must be verry annoying !

Tehee! Colin & Ross are the only seeds left in the draw! Interesting that TCH, Dom's erstwhile partner & the fourth seed in tandem with the Austrian, Oliver Marach, bit the dust in the first round agin Russian Marble Man (Mikhail Elgin) & Denis Istomin (UZB, in spite of the fact that he was born in "Mocboc"!)...
So sick of Murray senior's partner changes that I don't want him to win. [...]
I had no idea Jamie's (& Andy's) dad, Willie, played tennis, only their mum, Judy! You really need to find a better way of referring to older & younger siblings who engage in the same sport at professional level. I know it's convenient, but it's inaccurate to use those terms: "senior" & "junior" (in Yank-speak) generally describe father & son (usually when they have the same Christian name as well! ).

I'm surprised at you quoting "Yank-speak". I'm sure everybody understood who Helen meant - and don't English public schools use "senior" and "junior" for brothers? I'm fairly certain I can remember seeing "junior" used for a younger brother in books set in them.
