Looking forward to this one. Tursunov tends to blow hot and cold, though he's not too great on clay so you would expect Andy to prevail. Would be nice if he could avenge his loss to Simon from last year, but Mallise can turn up the heat on his day.
I'm not worrying about Nadal yet!

Yes if he plays like we know he can but if he continues to play like he has done for the last couple of months then I don't see him having a chance.

I was sarcastically agreeing that Murray could make the last four.

Allan smokes, I've lost my faith in humanity.

Tursunov admitted in his blog that he is atrocious on clay, this should be a W for Andy!
