Andy Murray will be looking to add another trophy to his steadily growing cabinet this week, as he competes in the ABN Amro Tournament in Rotterdam.

Murray has been handed a favorable draw this week starting against Dutchman, Robin Haase.

You may remember Haase, who is currently ranked 94th in the world at the age of 20, from when team GB defeated The Netherlands in the Davis Cup last April. On that occasion Tim Henman took the match in straight sets. Although since then Haase has had some pretty big scalps in the form of Berdych, Ljubicic and Baghdatis.

Providing Andy manages to progress, the rest of the draw has shaped up nicely.

R1 > Haase
R2 > Berrer
QF > Davydenko (expected)
SF > Berdych or Ferrer (expected)
F   > Rafa (expected)

Murray's first round match will be played on Wednesday. Check back on Tuesday night for an estimated start time.

Murray and Mirnyi move onto San JoseFollowing title success last week in Delray Beach  Jamie Murray returns to San Jose with his partner Max Mirnyi.

They have been drawn to face Rohan Bopanna and Aisam-Ul-Haq Qureshi who both had a successful year on the challenger tour.

If Jamie and Max make the semi-final they could face the Bryan brothers who they beat last week in Delray Beach

R1 > Bopanna/Qureshi
QF > Gambill/Warburg or Darcis/Vliegen
SF > Bryan/Bryan (expected)
F > Knowles/Bhupathi (expected)

View the full draw

Their first round match will take place on Wednesday and can be discussed in  Jamie Talk.

Just a small point, surely all his matches are "predicted" or "expected" after R1 unless u list both opponents for round 2.

It's certainly not the hardest shout at 300 points he's ever had!
