Justine Henin ( ) 3-2 Nadia Petrova (a break up).

Just the start of the classic morning's tennis we've got, culminating in Andy Murray taking on Rafa Nadal. It's going to be quality, and I'm going to be staying up to watch it all. Any other like minded soul out there doing the same?

A semi final in January pretty much guarantees him BBC Sports Personality of the Year, I believe.

He got to the final of the US Open, losing to Nadal!

If he'd done that while wearing a Man United shirt, he'd probably have won the award.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

At least Murray has one advantage over his predecessor as British no.1.

Nobody called Timmy is EVER going to succeed at top level sport are they?
