Hi I’m Andy Murray and this is the toughest 3 players for me to beat.

Firstly, I’m gonna say Rafael Nadal. I’ve played him a couple of times and they’ve actually been great matches but, you know, his mentality on the court is awesome, an he fights for every single point and that’s one of the reasons why he’s number 2 in the world. He never gives up and fights right until the end. That’s why he’s a tough guy for me to play against.

Secondly, I’m gonna say Arnaud Clement from France. I’ve played him twice before, lost both times. Not really that sure why I find it difficult to play against him. I’ve just um, you know, I’ve been a bit impatient against him before. He’s one of the quickest guys on the tour and doesn’t make too many mistakes. And, you know, hits the ball very flat and so that’s why I’ve struggled against him.

And thirdly, Karlovic. I think for a lot of the guys he’s just, he’s just not fun to play against. You’ve got, you’re gonna have to take your chances against him and, it’s gonna come down to one or two points. And, you know, during the match, you know, he can fire down 25, 30 aces and, you know, you don’t, you don’t really have any say in that because of how tall he is and how good his serve is. So that’s why, that’s why he’s the third toughest player for me to play.

No probs. Maybe he has a bit of a trick up his sleeve for Nole. He hasn't been able to try anything since those two matches last year. And he was a bit gubbed both those times.
