The schedule does say Wednesday - but then it also says that Round 1 was to start today, yet there were three matches played yesterday (Troicki/Lisnard, Simon/Balleret , Dodig/Ljubicic). Would they really have a three day break before their next match? Guess we'll find out when they release tomorrow's OOP tonight. Edit: Just seen the schedule again and it does actually say there were 1st round matches to be played on Sunday. Must have mis-read it first time round.  Fair enough, he should be playing Wednesday then (and hopefully has the doubles tomorrow). Still a bit strange that there's two days off for those winning on the first Sunday. I'd have used a Troicki looking Andy photo in the H2H  but thanks for starting the thread MH.  I hope Andy gets at least one dubs match in with Jamie before his singles match so he can get some match practice on clay. As I've said on another thread looks like a tricky draw to me. So hope all that work with Mr L will substitute for lack of match practice especially on clay. Thanks tmh for sparing us the new look Andy in the h2h.  I didn't realise you could use a different pic.

Thanks for the info Knights, pity Andy's not going to have had any match practice before his singles though. Lets hope he's not going to have one of his famed slow starts!

He will be fine.
He has been practising on clay, have faith.
A top Tennis Player like Andy will be fine.
With a new haircut, just enjoy.

Thanks for the information knights. V confusing given the schedule said R2 starts Wednesday. I'm glad I'm going to see Andy tomorrow but wish he'd been able to get some match practice in the dubs first. Practice is never quite the same especially when moving surfaces. I will have faith but I can't help remember 2 years ago, when he was booed off, and that was what finally prompted me to join MW to seek some solace among other AM fans. Of course this is v different as there's no post-AO slump this year but IW was a reminder that it can take him time to get going and Troicki could well be tricky.

iActually have just checked oop and it's still got monday's up so am wondering how you know knights? And presumably this means that Troicki isn't playing dubs till after the match either despite what has been said on another thread?

Murray will be playing doubles tomorrow, but not singles according to the Monte Carlo website which has not been changed. The doubles first round will be played before the second round of the singles and Andy has a bye for the first round singles.

The doubles first round will be played before the second round of the singles and Andy has a bye for the first round singles.
Neil Harman is also saying that Andy will be playing singles tomorrow, followed by doubles. I guess the official website will update the order of play soon.

ah didn't notice the arrow. Bad news though that Troicki got more match practice today. Seems abit unfair given that he played yesterday already.
