Mahut confident ahead of Murray clash

France's Nicolas Mahut is confident that he can give Andy Murray a nightmare start to his grass court season at the AEGON Championships.

Mahut set up a second-round clash with the defending champion at Queen's by beating Guillermo Garcia-Lopez 6-4 6-2 on court one on Tuesday afternoon.

Murray, who received a bye through the first round, has beaten Mahut twice before. Mahut won just four games against the Scot at Indian Wells five years ago, but caused the 25-year-old problems the following year in Marseille where Murray edged through 7-5, 7-6 (7-5).

Mahut has a good record at the Wimbledon warm-up tournament, having reached the 2007 final after beating Rafael Nadal and he is optimistic about his chances of recording an upset on Wednesday.

"Of course I believe I can beat him (Murray). Otherwise I wouldn't be on the court," said Mahut, who took Roger Federer to four sets at the French Open 11 days ago after beating Andy Roddick.

"I beat Nadal once here. I was one point away from beating Roddick here when he was in the top five. I know I can do well.

"I know I can beat top players on this surface. I believe in myself, I believe in my game.

"He's the favourite but I just have to come on centre court, enjoy it and play my game.

"He is ranked fourth in the world but I played well the past few weeks, and I'm ready to fight."

THAT is what worries me.  However they all say the same thing - I mean, they're not going to say "I think he'll beat me" - and Mahut's scalp here was claimed years ago. Andy certainly won't be under-estimating him though and hopefully will be at his best on his home turf.  Nevertheless Andy's first matches are always a little nervous

According to the Beeb they're televising Queens from 1 - 5.15 pm, but not in Scotland where there's a break between 2.30 and 3.30 for "Politics Scotland".  Well they can stuff that for a start!

See Tommy Haas is putting his boot in. What is the matter with the guy? Totally unprofessional to accuse another player of faking injury through the media.

I'm surprised about Tommy Haas's comments - especially the bit about Andy calling the trainer and then running around fine afterwards. Andy, like Fed, hardly ever calls the trainer during matches. If he'd mentioned Rafa then I'd be inclined to agree as he often has injury timeouts - I always remember the one he had last year against Delpo at Wimbledon right before a tiebreak which Delpo was furious about at the time.

Anyway, hope Andy has a good match today! Glad to see the back of clay for this year and looking forward to seeing Andy's grasscourt tennis again. Smile

I actually think this is a great match up for Murray he loves a target! As a neutral am looking forward to this one great returner against a serve and volleyer on grass that contrast usually makes for some exciting tennis
