I haven’t picked on Andy Murray for awhile and any time he is linked to the Davis Cup is a perfect time to talk about him.
Murray stated he would play for Great Britain at the Davis Cup in September when the Brits play Austria. After the debacle that surrounded his decision to not play for […]
I don’t know that it would have been so easy if she had to face Lindsay Davenport in the semis but that’s tennis and Maria Sharapova walked away from the Bausch & Lomb Championships with her first clay court title. Sharapova beat Dominika Cibulkova 7-6, 6-3 en route.
You know, I think my job would be […]
The people in Andy Murray’s corner have been reading my blog and finally took my advice. Murray has hired an image adviser.
The top British player hired one of the best Britain can produce in Stuart Higgins, a sporting public relations master.
Public relations. Now there’s a topic I might know a little bit about. It’s spin, […]
That’s right, you read it correctly. Andy Murray beat Roger Federer in the first round of the Dubai Championships. Murray came from a set down to beat Federer 6-7, 6-3, 6-4.
That is kind of important. More important however was Federer’s words afterwards.
“I don’t think he’s changed his game a whole lot since I played him […]
Sometimes I harp on Andy Murray. It’s not a secret. But I certainly don’t do it to the extent of Simon Hattenstone. Here’s his article about how charmless Murray is compared to his brother Jamie. Compared to a normal human being, actually.
Hattenstone talks about Murray as if he’s a side of beef for sale. That’s […]
Andy Murray sent Mario Ancic packing in the Marseille Open, beating the Croatian 6-3, 6-4 to win the title. After the match Murray said he thought he’d be back in the top 10 when the new ATP rankings were released but the ATP statistician said that wasn’t the case. Thank goodness there was one of those […]
Mario Ancic took out Marcos Baghdatis 6-4, 6-2 in the semifinals at Marseille to set up a final showdown with fourth-seeded Andy Murray. Murray beat eighth-seeded Paul-Henri Mathieu 6-2, 6-2 earlier for his ticket to Sunday’s final.
Not that this is the most interesting piece of tennis news out there but I thought it worthy of […]
Hold on to your pants, Andy Murray has agreed to play for Great Britain in the next Davis Cup match. Amazing! I know this news is a couple days old…I’m not sure how I skipped over it in the headlines. I usually jump at the chance to hang out with my good ole buddy Andy […]
There’s another job opening for all you tennis coaches out there. Yiannos Hadjigeorgiou cited personal reasons when he stepped down from his perch as Marcos Baghdatis’ coach and really didn’t have much to say beyond that. Hadjigeorgiou will continue coaching Baghdatis as the Davis Cup team captain.
Hadjigeorgiou took the Baghdatis job in May of 2007 […]
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 […]
