Aberdeen Cup - Friday Afternoon - press conference LIVE
Permalink  

Well i made it to the press room and my new laptop connected to the net without a hitch....one hitch so far....I walked in with Greg Rusedski and said hello to Jamie, Elena, James and Katie...should not have been there...never mind....i am a rookie at this after all!


So got a good spot and will post the main details of the press conference ASAP.


Starts at 3.00pm with Greg, James, Elena and Katie. Andy is at 5.00pm.


Now the bed news....my wife has called me and I have to take my in-laws to the airport in Edinburgh...so I will just catch the start of Andys conference.

Some hot points from the PC :


Andy and Jamie will play DOHA doubles.

Greg thinks England will win the AC !

Greg not looking to far forward in his career.

Greg has spoken to J Loyd re playing in the DC tie.

Jamie and Auckland intend to play the AO double if their ranking can get them in.

Greg thinks that Baker / Jamie Murray / Boggo are the future at the moment for the DC.

Elena said...

Back is at 70% and has not played a match in 5 mths.

Really enjoyed the French connection tennis academy and they have given her so much good support.

She says she is 3-4 weeks away from full fitness. I asked her re her plans for her next event......Intends to play mid-January in Challengers in England but has not signed up to any yet.

Katie Obrien....

I was the only person to ask her a question.....

I asked her would she rather be in aussie with the other Brit girls or is she happy to be in Aberdeen...got a laugh...

"I realy enjoyed it last year and looking forward again...i have had a great year and just back from asia....Im am going out to aussie in January."

Jamie Murray said....

Looking forward to playing with his younger brother...they still get on...just !

Really looking forward to the AC and will play in Doha with Andy in doubles.

I asked him when he will play with Auckland...."we intend to play the AO if our combined ranking allows"

I think if that does not work both he and Auckland will be looking for other partners to play with. (Lower ranked)

Tom Mainment has just told me that there will be live steaming.

It is being done by another company who will charge a small fee (£1-2) to view through their site. No other info at the moment.
