CAMELOT FANTASIES

That would be great. Andy can very well win the title, I think. Although he hasn't hit his stride fully, these last matches have re-ignited the fight in him. Champions usually rise to the occasion and Andy is well aware of Milos's strength. I think Andy will take it, because Andy is too crafty for Raonic. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that Andy wins which signals that's he's getting back to his best.

To be honest, Andy is not the same kind of Champion as Federer or Nadal or even Nole is. Simply because he doesn't want to take his opponents seriously until he's pushed or if his opponents are those top guys. This attitude is pathetic in my opinion but what can you do. His opponents however, not named Federer, Nadal, Nole - are very excited to see him and play him, so they bring their very best, but he doesn't even care about that, whereas I really think he totally should. He should have more respects for his opponents. He should understand that these lesser ranked players are trying to learn from him too so this should be a very lovely experience as I see it.

And given that he's scheduled to play early today (the first match in fact) I am not sure how motivated he will be throughout the match to actually beat Raonic. He wants a big and loud crowd but if it's lukewarm then he's likely to struggle. I can't say that he doesn't like playing Raonic because I believe he does so that should bring up some lost fire in him, but that early match might set him off in the wrong direction. He won't be facing a very big crowd in the middle of the week and that early in the day. Andy doesn't like to create an atmosphere - he wants it to be created for him so that he can thrive in it. It's a bit of a lazy and yet shy attitude as I see it.

Anyway, to be more fair, I do think it's utterly ridiculous to set this big match so early in the day.
