Well Federer's not there at least! Plus he should be able to beat everyone on that list apart from one or two - probably nadal.


Of the real big guns there:
Nadal, Rafael ESP - toughie, doubt it unless he pulls off a stunning performance or Nadal doesn't turn up
Nalbandian, David ARG - Should have beaten him at wimbledon and could do it maybe - though Nalbandian could jsut turn up and blitz him
Davydenko, Nikolay Rus - Took him to three sets this week could go either way
Ljubicic, Ivan CRO - Same as davydenko
Coria, Guillermo ARG - Been away from the tour for a while, rusty and very beatable
Gaudio, Gaston ARG - Beatable
Ferrer, David ESP - Same as Gaudio
Johansson, Thomas SWE - Would (?) have beaten him if he didn't get injured i think.


All this is based on Murray giving a good account of himself but beating them is not beyond him. Anyone else on the list is not far superior than Andy. Soon he should be one of the "big boys"

Oh and one more thing - How can Verkerk be ranked 44 this week if Murray is ranked 44?

Oooh it would be fun to go up to Barcelona that week, but I'm going to Rome the week after for a couple of days, don't think uni would be so impressed if I just didn't show up for two weeks after Easter hols... might stay there for a day when I fly in and get the train down to Castellon on Wednesday... would see some first round matches on the Tuesday. I'll have to see!

Thread moved from Andy Murray's schedule to Latest Andy Murray news.

Hopefully Andy can get a good draw for this event and hopefully after playing doubles he'll be more used to the clay and can keep the ue count down as that really hurt him in the singles. I wonder if Tim has got a wc, he definately needs the practise on the clay and it'd be great if he and Andy could play doubles again.

Draw should be out on Saturday.

By the way, who's the latest belle in your avatar mkkreuk ?

What's the latest news on a possible trip to ATP Barcelona, Kate ? When you said you're going to Rome, is that for the masters series event ?

Um Barcelona won't happen, I just can't afford it. I did consider staying a couple of nights as I fly in there on Monday, but decided it wasn't worth the money. Rome (The Masters Series) is very likely not to happen either unfortunately, for the same reason - money. I haven't finally decided on that but it's highly unlikely I'll go. I'm thinking my next tennis will be Queens.

Pavel has taken the SE so thats means another alternate gets his place.

Gaudio, Nalbandian and Hanescu are out. Gd news for Andy cos they could have really been a problem and Hanescu is one of the "competitors"

James Auckland has just squeezed into qualifying. I wonder if he'll try and pair up with Andy in the doubles if Henman doesn't secure a wildcard....

Auckland is drawn against the 12th seed, Simone Vagnozzi of Italy in Qr1.

Hooray, the board is working again at last - though it looks a bit odd still.

The Barcelona draw is out, Andy has Spanish wildcard Marcel Granollers-Pujol first round. I think I have seen that name playing in Challengers. Andy SHOULD win.

But second round - number 5 seed David Ferrer, who is right in form. Ah well.
