Weeks 3-4 - Australian Open - Final - Andy v Roger Federer
(
1 2 3
)
(Preview)
Well, so we have it: the final we possibly both hoped for and dreaded. We all know the H2H is in Andy's favour, but as Federer keeps reminding us, not in Finals and not in best-of-5 matches. And Roger won the last two encounters, I think. I'm sure Andy CAN win this but Fed has to be the favourite, especially...

Weeks 3/4 - Australian Open - R4: Andy vs John Isner (USA)
(

(Preview)
Can Andy at least equal his best performances so far in the AO last year & in 2007? His fourth-round opponent is the big Yank, John Isner (33/WR 28), who dumped out the 12th seed, Gaël Monfils, in four sets (6-1 4-6 7-6(4) 7-6(5)/2'48") earlier. Quote from Andy used in the report on the matc...

Gonna be some line up this year. Nadal and Del Potro are entered, while Djokovic and Verdasco are playing here instead of Halle (and I'm pretty sure Murray and Roddick will enter as well!)

Weeks 3/4 - Australian Open - R3: Andy vs Florent Serra (FRA)
(

(Preview)
The World N° 4 versus the World N° 64 - & the first ever encounter in any competition between the two. On the face of it, a no-brainer, BUT Serra's obviously a battler, as his five-set victory over Jarkko Nieminen (3-6 6-4 5-7 7-6(4) 7-5), who has dropped 35 places to World N° 13, but who has been as hi...

The Frenchman, who beat Simone Bolelli in a bit of tussle by 7-6(2) 7-6(3)6-3, should present a stiffer test than Kevin Anderson did, but this match is surely still little more than the next, relatively straightforward, rung on the ladder to the business end of the tournament & the tough...

Yes, everyone, pick yourselves up off the floor, it's true. Such shock news - NOT - and as we have discussed on the forum previously we seem to generally feel absolutely right for various reasons. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/tennis/8438187.stm

Murray's future in the Davis Cup
(

Shame about Britain losing to Poland and slipping down to the third tier in the Davis Cup. Although Murray even admitted that it's where we "deserve" to be at the moment. It sounds like he's not very willing to continue to play in the competition, saying that he will only play if the coach or c...
