“During the match, the thought that kept coming to my mind was that I was watching a genius,” said Wojtek Fibak, the former Polish player hired by Djokovic as a coaching consultant. “It’s like Chopin who was born to compose music. Nadal was born to win tennis matches.”
Anyone watch the TV Series Merlin?
not yet baron but I intend to sooner or later.
I am just going to buy the whole series one of these days and then make the time for it.
did you see catch the series? do you approve?
by the way no lady emma sighting as of late.
and also no huntingyou sighting for a while now.
I thought for sure we would hear from him after rafa managed to snatch another hard court slam.
I do hope he is doing well.
lady emma is probably just very busy.
I haven't followed it from start to finish, but caught a few episodes back in the UK last year and enjoyed it.
I'll probably do the same and order in box sets and watch it right through.
Got some other series to get and view first.
The pecking order is: Boardwalk Empire Season 1 (to finish), Game of Thrones (all seasons), Dexter (all seasons), Boardwalk Empire (remaining seasons) and then maybe the later seasons of Wired (saw the first season and have been told the others are better). Following that may take a look at Mad Men.
So plenty of viewing to get through, but not enough time.
"game of thrones" sounds quite interesting as well.
that is right up my alley.
ok so now you have put me to work baron: now I have to catch "merlin" and "game of thrones".
I think we will get the time once wtf is over and done with.
there is that little matter of davis cup final after wtf but there should be some down time after that anyway. holiday season will be upon us.

MURRAY BECOMES THIRD PLAYER TO QUALIFY FOR THE 2013 BARCLAYS ATP WORLD TOUR FINALS
LONDON – Andy Murray will look to maintain his unbeaten record on home soil this year with victory at the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals. The Scot has become the third player to qualify for the season finale, to be held at The O2 in London from 4-11 November. Murray, who reached the quarter-finals at the US Open, secured his place at the season finale for the sixth straight year.
“I’ve played some of my best tennis in front of my home crowd at Queen’s and Wimbledon this year so hopefully I can keep up that run of form at The O2 in November,” said Murray. “It will be great to compete in London again for the first time since winning Wimbledon. It’s a key focus for me for the rest of the season and I’ll do everything I can to give myself the best chances of winning it. The atmosphere there is always special – to win it would be the perfect way to finish the season.”
The 26-year-old Murray joins Spaniard Rafael Nadal and Serbia’s Novak Djokovic as the first singles players to qualify for the elite eight-man event. The trio currently leads the Emirates ATP Race To London standings.
Dunblane-born Murray has a 12-0 record on home soil this season, preceding his historic Wimbledon triumph with victory at the Aegon Championships at The Queen’s Club. The Scot was also a finalist at the Australian Open and collected titles at the Brisbane International and the Sony Open in Miami.
Murray is a three-time semi-finalist at the season finale, reaching the last four in Shanghai in 2008 (l. to Davydenko) and London in 2010 (l. to Nadal) and 2012 (l. to Federer). He is bidding to become the first British player to win the season finale.
US Open doubles champions Leander Paes and Radek Stepanek and runners-up Alexander Peya and Bruno Soares have also secured their berths at the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals, qualifying behind three-time former champions Bob and Mike Bryan.
Stepanek, who along with Paes reached the semi-finals last year at The O2, stated it was their goal to win the title. "That's the trophy which is missing in Leander's showcase. That's what I'm very focused on, that's what I would like to deliver," he said.
