The recently anointed world No. 12 Andy Murray (falling from No. 9) has dropped off Great Britain’s Davis Cup team. The Brits are set to square-off against Argentina on outdoor clay Feb. 8-10 in Buenos Aires.
Great Britain’s leading lady man has withdrawn from Davis Cup play because of a knee injury.
“The experts have advised me that going […]
The chips are in and the cards are down. The fortnight at the Australian Open is a closed book, but there are 10 moments from Down Under that were pretty special.
10. No Americans at the Australian Open past the quarterfinals.
I should take that back. There was one American who lost in the semifinals and that […]
The second day of the Australian Open had its exciting moments even though it didn’t have the exit of the No. 9 men’s player Andy Murray (who now has time to focus on British team play, ironically enough).
For those who were worried (or hoping) Roger Federer might not be in top form for the Australian Open, well, he […]
And this is why I don’t like predicting things…because more often than not, I’m wrong!
Andy Murray, at No. 9 in the world, became the highest-ranked player to exit the Australian Open the first day. Jo-Wilfried Tsonga of France showed Murray how to play tennis in 7-5, 6-4, 0-6, 7-6 victory. And here I had said I would […]

It’s that time of year when everyone is handing out awards and bowing and smiling to receive them.
Andy Murray, wrapping up the year in 11th in the ATP rankings, was named the British male player of the year in the Lawn Tennis Association awards. The awards were voted on by the public.
And that’s about all […]
Not that I’m patting myself on the back here. In fact, I didn’t even say it outright but I certainly alluded to the fact that Andy Murray’s decision to hire a team of coaches might not be the best choice for him.
