Andy's serve collapsed just when he was under pressure. This is still his first match after the surgery so ... expected.

Andy definitely needs a few more matches before AO to get in shape so that he can be match ready. He isn't very consistent from the baseline and also, his serves are very weak since the last game of the 1st set. It was very good to see him though.

I wouldn't read too much in Mr. Murray's loss to Mr. Tsonga here.
I hope and rather expect Andy Murray will be back to his best form by Wimbledon or the US Open at the latest. 

Any title sooner will be a blessing, but most of all let's hope his back has recovered well from surgery so it will be healthy as can be moving forward.

Mr. Murray says he may never win more majors, but I think he might have some more in him if he stays healthy in body and strong in motivation. Of course, it also depends on how well his competition performs. We will see. :)

Respectfully,
masterclass

Andy beats Stan today. 6-3, 6-4 I believe. I like the way Abu Dhabi is written on the surface of the court. It's written in Arabic style.

I didn't get to see the match however. I woke up after the match the match was over.

Nole and Tsonga are on at the moment. Nole won the 1st set TB and now serving for the match 5-3.

good day for nole and ferru. congrats to them and their fans.


nadal has been doing too much screwing around. way too much extracurricular activity.

no way nadal should be losing to a guy like ferru. ferru is old as dirt and has no weapons.

also nadal used to train for 6-7 hours a day in the off season with Australian open approaching.

now the training is 2-2.5 a day hours. that is just not good enough.

Nadal lost to Ferrer? I did not know that. It's an exo though so perhaps best not to read too much into it. I don't think anybody out there is being too competitive right now. Maybe only 'ferru'. lol

Their next meeting will be in interesting given that now Ferrer has beaten Nadal twice since Paris. It will also tell if Ferrer was all that or if Nadal was all that but this meeting needs to happen outside clay.

they could run into each other in Doha.

I am not sure if ferru is playing the Doha event at the moment.


I will have to check the Doha field when I get home.

Looks like Nole trounced Ferrer in the final. Nole has a long season behind him but still looking strong and the player to beat since the USO.
