Thanks for your answers, much appretiated.
It just hit me that this could be a historic match for British tennis. I heard on the radio that Tim Henman has been British number one continuously since 1998. Now that we think Andy has taken that away from him he could hold on to the position for just as long again!!

Actually his reign could be as short as 1 week. If he were to lose tonight then Rusedski could overhaul him by getting to the quarterfinals in Dubai. At present the gap between them will be just 11 points.

I was wondering about that, but didn't have time to check up. It may happen (though Greg would have to have a kind draw in Dubai), but if so I don't think it would be long before Andy was back on top again.
