Andy Murray has arrived in London to begin two weeks of fitness training before the pair head to South Africa as part of the 18-year-olds preparations for the Australian Open, which starts in Melbourne on 15 January.

Ever since Murray reached the third round of Queen's Club in June, he has been criticised for his fitness and stamina levels.

Murray revealed, at the inaugural Aberdeen Cup between England and Scotland on Saturday, recent medical tests he underwent in France showed the cramping problems were linked to a nerve problem in his back and had nothing to do with his fitness.

Murray said:
Murray will play at tournaments in Auckland and Adelaide prior to the first major championship of 2006.

srely hell come back briefly for christmas. its still 3 weeks till the big day so if he gets 3 weeks solid training surely hell be able to have a short break around xmas...

i know- being somewhere like australia for christmas having a bbq when ur used to being cold and eating turkey must be so wierd! i dunno how they do it...

A nerve problem...when I first read it. I thought it was really bad, but it must just be a little thing

I thought Andy doing the two Tournaments before the Australian Open was maybe going to be too  much but after the Aberdeen Cup I've changed my mind, I think it will loosen him up abit and get him back into his stride.  He seemed to get off to a slow start after the break he's had recently.
