"good game, man"

This is a match between Roger Federer (my fav player) and Andy Murray. Andy Murray is more faster around the court than Andy Roddick, and since Hard Court is apparently the hardest court to play on in this game, it took more time to beat Andy Murray, than it took to beat Andy Roddick... NOTE: There are times where the audio and video are out of sync I have no idea why this has happened since it wasn't happening when I was playing the game
Rafael Nadal will face Andy Murray at the 2011 ATP Monte Carlo event on Saturday in a semifinal match that features the world number one against the world number four. Murray has not done too badly against Nadal over the years however all of the Scot's four wins against Rafa have come on the hard court surface. On the clay court, Nadal is undefeated against Murray in terms of both matches played (2-0) and sets played (4-0). The last time that they met on clay was in the semifinals of the 2009 Monte-Carlo event. Murray played well in the second set of that match as he forced a tiebreaker however he did not really come close to beating Nadal as the first set was over quickly in that match. Nadal was actually playing poorly at the time, for his standards, as his loss in the round of 16 and subsequent hiatus from tennis proved and if Murray can't beat Nadal on clay when he's slightly off-form, then the Scot has little chance to beat Nadal now as the world number one hasn't lost on clay since the Robin Soderling injury-induced loss at Roland Garros 2009. Nadal advancing over Murray is the only prediction that can really be made and truthfully the Scot would do well just to force a third set on Saturday.

Murray said he has been feeling below par since the 2nd round of the Australian Open, and he was affected in his match against Verdasco (now he pulled out of Dubai due to sickness). Federer has bad-mouthed Andy (in his usual subtle way), and Roger seems like the type of guy who would do anything to win - plus he appears to hold grudges against certain opponents. He said a few times that Murray's game has not improved, even after Federer loses to him. Also, Roger disliked the fact that Murray was pronounced by some people as the favorite to win the Aussie.
Today, Andy Murray is number 3 in the world. Back during the Australian Open, Novak said that Andy Murray shouldn't be considered in the same breath as Rafa, Roger or himself. Today, that's the not the case. So, do we give Novak the same consideration and drop him from all conversations involving the French Open?
Personally, I think Novak has a better shot of getting to the finals of the French Open than Andy Murray. His game is better suited for red clay and so far, he's had a successful run this season.
I would tell Roger to put his head in the game and stay away from Andy Murray as far as possible. (lol)
I am sure Celtic players will up their game when they play against the Mighty Lakers.
If they loose then it will be my worst day-- Murray lost, Arsenal lost. So, I hope Celtics win this one.
