I really like reading Judys articles they are usually very funny, I liked the bit about the beauty queen.  It does sound like a very lonely life though, I couldn't do it.

I guess he loves his tennis enough to make the sacrifice, especially if you have a natural talent for the game that Andy has.

"That will allow Andy to reflect on what he has achieved this year. I nearly fell off the sofa at home when he made it through to the final against Roger Federer. I was dancing around the living room in my dressing gown and slipper socks"

I read that only nine people were watching his match against Heubregor(?).  That is including Mark Petchey and his agent

That was at the beginning. It was a hassle changing the day and night crowds (I use the term loosely in regard to Challengers :P ) but once the night crowd was in, it was, apparently OK.

What a let down for him, though. I'm worried he needs the rest.

But there again, I haven't a clue what it's like to be 18, full of vim and verve and raring to go.

 Embarassed  I think he's more than capable of coping at this level.


I do hope he bunks off the Challenger circuit though. It's way better for my viewing.  Embarassed  Staring at a score sheet online is not exactly the best use of time!  :P
