You should give Aberdeen a good look too. Really nice city on a sunny day. Can be a little grey and miserable if it rains but contrary to popular opinion, it doesn't actually happen THAT often. After all, we are on the east coast.

Well if you've never been to live tennis I'm sure you'll have an absolute blast whatever! It's just fantastic. And the atmosphere in Braehead is going to be electric if Aberdeen's anything to go by.

Well I thought about it and I missed some of the best of the Aberdeen cup by only going Saturday and in Davis Cup, ok there is the risk that it could be a day of dead matches like in Switzerland, but I think it's more likely that at least one of the two will be deciders on the Sunday. Looking forward to it though.

So if Andy can leap frog Carlsen, Tursunov Novak and Sanguinetti this week he'll be seeded, or if others drop out. Mind you, aren't the seedings done before this week's results effect ranking?

Ok So this is the confirmed list in seeding order
Roddick, Andy USA 3 Gonzalez, Fernando CHI 11 Ginepri, Robby USA 16 Robredo, Tommy ESP 19 Blake, James USA 23 Kiefer, Nicolas GER 24 Mirnyi, Max BLR 33 Hanescu, Victor ROM 37 Malisse, Xavier BEL 39 Haas, Tommy GER 41 Sanguinetti, Davide ITA 45 Novak, Jiri CZE 47 Tursunov, Dmitry RUS 55 Beck, Karol SVK 58 Carlsen, Kenneth DEN 61 Murray, Andy GBR 62 Bjorkman, Jonas SWE 64 Goldstein, Paul USA 66 Karlovic, Ivo CRO 67 Clement, Arnaud FRA 68 Zib, Tomas CZE 69 Spadea, Vincent USA 75 Johansson, Joachim SWE 76 Soderling, Robin SWE 77 Pavel, Andrei ROM 82
So if you look at it there may be a good few (15) players above Andy (at the moment) but they're all in the 30's-50's not the top 20. All very beatable. You kind of have to look at how they've been playing recently and besides the top 20 players, who will always be a threat I think he'll also have to watch guys like Haas Malisse, Kiefer and (ranked lower) Karlovic. Good chance of a favourable draw though.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who doesn't have my tickets yet. I was getting worried. Mind you, I guessed the wouldn't print the tickets until they knew who ws playing. I suppose we should be getting them soon though. I am very excited. Got three day tickets so I don't miss any of the action. It's going to be so good!

Oh ok! I definately see it. He's really funny too. Did you see him in the one where Sandra Bullock was in rehab. He was hilarious in that. Played a German. Yeah, he looks a bit like my neighbour too.
