CAMELOT FANTASIES

Thank you CD.  Not had much time to reflect on Christmas yet.  I usually get into the spirit of things a week before.  Flying back to the UK for a month next Friday.

Murray will definitely be in Melbourne, but realistically it's probably too early to expect too much.  I think Indian Wells and Miami will give us more of an insight into his rehab.

Rusedski tells Andy Murray to find new focus:

This is good advice, but it kind of irritates me when former pros get in the news for talking about current pros, people, or even celebrities. I mean, why wouldn't you discuss this with Andy privately?

Then again, maybe he was asked. It just kind of gets under my craw because I'm not sure if it isn't a way of getting a little limelight for themselves.

Here's one for you Emma.

I interviewed an old friend of mine who used to be involved in coaching Andy Murray as a junior.

That was a very good read, Owen. I wonder how that long discussion about Andy's potentiality went between Leon Smith and Ben Saunders. It was interesting to notice that it was Leon Smith who brought it up though I bet neither believed Andy could do it in the end. All they could think of if Andy would end up in Top 10 one day. In reality, not only Andy has been in Top 5 since 2008 but he is also now the winner of 2 Majors beating World No. 1. This just tells us how little we we know and can tell about the future and yet, there's no end to prediction threads.

Thank you for posting it. When are you going to interview me though? Am I not after all a very big fan of Murray without any agenda? Agenda as in I don't support him because he's from my country but because I truly like him as a player? Okay, ok I tease. :p

Have fun back home but isn't it going to be some drastic change of weather for you from hot to very cold? And for a month!

Awww....that is so sweet, herc. Merci. :blush
