Who?
Oh you remember, surely ... ?
The guy who took Tsonga to four sets a couple of weeks ago.
Had a good run in 2006, early 2007.
Scottish bloke, I think (someone can correct me).
Or maybe I'm mixing him up with someone else.

Everyone still think I'm so stupid? Federer will lose his no-1 spot this year as I predicted.

I don't think he will. Well, unless he draws Murray in every tournament

I don't think today's loss makes any big difference.

He played well, just that our boy was even better.
Andy's serving was absolutely incredible, didn't put a foot wrong, apart from only three DFs.

He really was spot on today. Very few unforced errors. And his groundstrokes were on fire.
And this is what makes me think Mark may be right. We're creeping toward a situation where Fed begins to look beatable. And without that on court status he may just start to lose more and more of those rusty first rounds he usually fights through. Lose number one by year end, possibly. be damn close to losing it, probably. But I don't think it'll be Nadal that'll sneak in for it...

Sure us fans will say that it proves nothing because Murray played the match of his life but the fact is, like what Lorna said, he is now beatable and that will soon prove to mean he is certainly not dominant.

Nonsense. He'll still win at least Wimbledon this year, without even being made to sweat until the final I might add too. Probably the US as well.

Not so sure about the US. You certainly can't ignore Nole there these days...

Federer is 100% fit yet Fish is able to demolish him in a MS event... once again, Federer's dominance is over.

I knew it was nothing overly special at the time although I tried to pretend it was to make it more enjoyable.

By Singapore I predict:
1. Djokovic
2. Nadal
3. Federer

Glandular fever for Fed? If this is true... i think we should lay off him for the last few losses, glandular fever takes a lot out of you..

We knew about this ages ago but he said he had recovered before Indian Wells.

I've been reserving judgment on Fed since I heard about the Glandular Fever. The biggest surprise for me was that he had been playing at all.
He might have got over the swollen glands and so on, but recoup takes a lot longer....it would not surprise me at all if in 6 months he is as good as he ever was.
