It's cool guys, you just need to find a replacement addiction.

Well my replacement addiction has been box sets. But they do have a shelf life.

Is andy competing? still no word from team murray.

That's that catch 22 of the rankings system.....he's gonna get a few stinky draws until he gets back in the top ten. He'll have to haul himself back up the hard way...grinding out some ugly wins against some top claycourters. Hope Alex C has worked his magic!

When has Andy ever done what he 'should' do though

Andy's a better player, on clay it should be emphasised even more.

He cant beat Ancic when having match points, he cant beat Haas when he should have.  Basically, his last 5 matches have been shocking.  On clay it will be harder because he hasnt been hitting with power on hard courts, thus why he has struggled to dictate play and dominate points.  On clay it will be even harder as these courts are slower.  I really hope I'm wrong and that he comes out playing like he did in Hamburg last year - He's due a sh*t hot game sooner rather than later.  This could be the tournament where he gets his season back on track because of the potential players he could face if he wins his matches.

I keep forgetting about the Ivo match.  Although he did play well, his serve and volleying looked amazing because of who his opponent was.  Thats why he rarely uses it against anyone else.  I'm not taking anything away from how he did it, but his next match against haas, I dont think he went to S&V once.  I mean, commentators picked up on it in the ivo match and said he is one of the top 5 best volleyers, but S&V is so much easier when you play against someone who doesnt really have a return game
