Andy Murray will will make his comeback from illness this week against Spain's Feliciano Lopez.

Andy will be hoping to get this clay court season off to a flying start after withdrawing from Valencia last week.

Passage in the the second round will give him a match against Filippo Volandri or Nicolas Mahut and after that a possible, mouth-watering, clash with Novak Djokovic.

Play commences in Monte Carlo at 10AM and the match is scheduled second so Murray should be on court at around midday.

R1 > Lopez
R2 > Volandri or Mahut
R3 > Djokovic (expected)
QF > Gasquet (expected)
SF > Federer (expected)
F > Nadal (expected)

Jamie Murray and his temporary partner Kevin Ullyett have reached the final in the doubles event in Estoril.

They reached the final with a 3-6 6-4 10-6 victory over Frantisek Cermak and Jordan Kerr.

We played a horrible first set and really had to hustle to get the win. We're looking forward to the final now.
The number one seeds, Jeff Coetzee and Wesley Moodie, will be the opponents on Sunday. This can be discussed in our Jamie Talk forum.

I don't expect Murray to get far but I am looking forward to a Djokovic rematch - Murray will lose but it will be interesting to see how close it gets.

Don't think Mahut will beat Volandri on clay but you never know.

I'm expecting a big performance from Andy tomorrow, he's got so much to prove.

I'll miss it, unless it's first match on but I'd prefer Andy to have an evening match for obvious reasons. Smile

First round exit likely I think. Murray's clay season might not be much better than last year, when did not play at all. Everyone was assuming he would grab loads of points on clay, but I think he's going to do very badly.

Bold statement but you don't give any reasoning for your opinion?
