H-H is 3:1 to Andy, with JMDP winning their most recent encounter on clay in Madrid this year. Andy has saved a lot of break points in this tournament so far, and he's needed to because his 1st serve %age has not been great, as exemplified in his match against Tsonga where it was in the low 40's. Unless he ca...

A bit of a turn-up for the books, this! They've met only twice before & the honours are even: 1-1! Andy beat Jo-Wilfried in Metz in 2007, but JWT had his revenge big time at the Oz Open the following year, when he beat Andy in five (or was it four?) sets in the first round & went on to reach the final...

6pm UK time again. Are Sky bribing the tournament directors? H2H is 4 all, with Andy winning the last one on clay but Davydenko was just coming back from injury at the time. Of the 3 times they met in 2008, all on hard, Donkey won the last 2. . . Fingers and everything else firmly crossed.

Drew · Drew

So JCF the Qualifier it is....H2H is 2-0 to Murray both this year on grass and both in straights. (Queens then Wimby) Same again for me IMO. Presume its on Thursday.

Andy starts off on his quest to become world number 2 against Jeremy Chardy, who is currently ranked 36. This will be their first game on the senior circuit, Chardy is having a decent season, having won in Stuttgart and reaching the final in Johannesburg earlier this year. But he has not beaten anyone i...

The return of Andy Murray to action after Wimbledon and he's ended up in what on first glance looks to be the toughest quarter of all, but the good news is that most of the dangerous floaters are in the other half of the quarter, so he'll only face one of them. Has a bye in round one, then either Yen-Tsun Lu or...

Any thoughts anyone ? A bit out of touch, Tim

I would appreciate some help to understand something. I always understood winners could be defined as, a shot that wins the point without your opponent getting a racquet on the ball,an ace as the same but a serve. When winners include service winners you can't, I'm told just subtract aces to find a pic...

The head-to-head is 6-2 in our Andy's favour. Andy last beat Rodders 4 & 2 in the Doha final earlier this year, Rodders beat him at Queen's last year, but only thanks to a walkover, &, of course, Andy famously beat Rodders in straight sets on his Wimbledon debut in 2006. I can't help feeling th...

JCF would have been happy Andy played so long but it could have been longer I suppose ! H2H is 1-0 to Andy after thrashing him at Queens. Should be much easier than against Stan but Ferrero is on form. Still Andy in 3 for me. Will be played on Wednesday....more than likely centre court late PM.

Have just checked Monday's OOP and guess what Andy's match is scheduled for... ...3rd Match on Centre Court after Federer and Safina. Another 3 set victory I hope. I dare say I could get used to the sense of anti-climax that Andy currently brings to his matches as he hasn't really been tested at all sinc...

The pair have met twice before: in Round 1 in St Petersburg last year, when Andy beat Troicki by 3 & 3, & in the last 16 in Miami earlier this year, when Andy triumphed by 1 & on his way to the title. I can't imagine him failing to make it three out of three on Saturday...

3rd on Centre Court again...somehow I get the feeling that Murray will be 3rd on Centre Court for everyone of his matches, at least for the rounds where he can be. He's following Del Potro vs. Hewitt and Wozniaki vs. Kirilenko, so it could be a while before he gets on court, as both those matches could wel...

3rd match on Centre Court, after Venus and Roddick. They have met 3 times before, with Andy winning all 3, but they haven't met since Miami 2007. I think Andy has improved a bit since then , I'm not sure Kendrick has - and after all he is now pushing 30. If Andy doesn't win this I'll eat my hat.

steven · steven

One of the most worrying things so far this year is that while Andy has been able to string wins together in the optional events (which might have lulled him into a false sense of security?), he's not really got anywhere in the events that matter most. The % of his total ranking points a player gains in the...

Andy was on a Radio 5 public forum about Wimbledon last night. He came across well from the bits I heard. One thing that did come up was that the Radio 5 guy said they still got loads of messages & calls from folk saying they wouldn't support Andy because they said he was anti English so he had to put i...

Well Andy couldn't have really asked for a better draw than this! His first grass court final is against the number 6 seed James Blake, who is not having a very good season, but is a little dangerous on grass. The head to head is 1-0 to Blake! With the only match being back in 2006 on clay! It's pretty hard to...

First up on Centre Court at 1pm. They have never played each other before; JCF was certainly playing very well today, but I can't see what he will have to bother Andy too much. . .

Yet again, Andy is second on the Centre Court. The two have met 3 times, with Mardy winning the first back in 2005, and Andy winning twice in 2006. All of them were on hard court. Should be a harder match than the first two, albeit likely to be very different as Mardy usually plays aggressively and is good...

Tomorrow, once again second match on Centre. with play due to start at 12.30. Maybe 2pm if it doesn't rain again? The Spaniard is 26 years old and ranked #52. Year to date, won 12 lost 11, won Kitzbuhel but otherwise never got past a QF. Primarily a clay-courter, though he has won 2 matches here so far, bea...
