Nobody, least of all me, is going to do Andy down. But the general consensus in the recent discussion in the chat section ( 'Andrew Murray message board ?' ) was that the title should more reflect how the forum has long ago evolved into a general British forum rather than more about any particular player.

Please add any further thoughts there.

In case this gets lost

Nick Kygrios is the oldest player in the draw on the men's side (he is older than Cam by a few months) at the age of 26 (nearly 27).

Cam down an early break, 4-2 to Ruud currently

Cam went down 3 and 4. Nonetheless, will break into top 10 still I presume, so decent (very decent) start to the season for him

Not British, but notice Nick K is playing Stuttgart, Halle, Mallorca. The Stuttgart and Mallorca events are organised by eMotion, who also do the Berlin event, and many World Padel Tour events, including massive events in Vienna and Madrid. They are also the organisers of the Davis Cup event in Hamburg (same time as Glasgow).

One thing to look out for - given the clear Spanish and German ties here, what is the betting DC Finals go to Germany (just a guess) if they qualify (and assuming we shy away from the Middle East, which seems to be backed off from).

Also, DC draw is on Thursday - not wanting to be a conspiracy theorist, but look out to see if Australia (and thus Nick) get drawn into Hamburg or maybe into the Malaga group, certainly one of them. It is of course a 50/50 chance with their being 4 groups but...let's see.
