As much as he deserves to be refused entry, I was really looking forward to see his little heart breaking when every fan boooed him to f**k. He hasn't coped with the burden of expectation lately, so it would have been funny to see him lose early.

Murray’s wild card for the Australian Open has been confirmed, he was going to go and play qualifiers if he wasn’t going to get one.
Starts 17th January.

Andy Murray lost a tight match to Andrey Rublev, the quickness of the court probably favoured Andrey. Good three matches for Murray. He’s using a different size of raquet head. That may help him next season.
More alarming, Rafa Nadal tested positive for COVID today. So would likely have picked it up in Abu Dhabi. His recovery should be swift, but might not be able to play in Australia. Murray played with him and practised with him.

I’m a bad player but trying to improve so would quite like to play next time if possible.
You just need to have a chess.com username and you can join the next season, not likely to start until the New Year.
Even if you struggle to start with you’ll be a better player by the end of the season for sure.

Murray beats Nadal 6-3 7-5 and plays Rublev tomorrow.

Andy Murray has a comfortable win against Dan Evans 6-3 6-2 and tomorrow will play Rafa Nadal. Always a fun matchup to watch.

That’s it’s now over.
Eindhoven wins by resignation.
A positional blunder in mid game takes it from an even game to a massacre.

Goes to a replay.

Andy Murray has parted ways with Jamie Delgado it seems.
He was more influential in that 2016 period than Lendl IMO. The fine tuning of the second serve on clay to make the French Open Final set him up for the rest of the year.
Great partnership but felt it ran its course more than a year ago.

Semi Final Result
GCarlos9 defeats DearyMe by resignation.
I think I bored him to death with my 12 checks in a row.
@Frank Grimes it’s time for the final.

Sorry for the radio silence lads, it’s been a mad week or so
Have you commenced the play off?
And has the other semi been complete
New season will kick off in 2022
No. It’s still on going. If you do the draw now though we can go straight to the final, once a victor emerges. Currently on move 37 and I’m chasing him about trying not to give away a draw

Nah sadly not, PlayStation already said tough you downloaded and played it. Still waiting on their response to my further request stating I wanted a refund due to the game being faulty.
But I guess now it’s fixed they won’t reply.

Misread the scores. Any idea when we last played without Andy or Jamie in the team?
It would be at the start of Leon Smith’s reign, Andy stated that he would only play if GB were in the World Group, and Jamie’s double ranking had fallen dramatically.
The unlikely 3-2 comeback victory against Russia in 2013 had neither. Murray then returned for the World Group playoff before getting his back surgery.

So after a third patch it now works. However when characters can get stuck in trees, and you can walk through cars, it really does feel like I’ve been mugged off totally.

I think a lot of Zverev’s problems with the second serve was a change in trying to hit two first serves. He’s now at a point where he finds himself in a service rhythm and he just fires out two first serves constantly. His plus one shot after the serve is as good as anyones, he can lace it with forehand or backhand. I don’t think he adapts to conditions or change in strategies, so I think a cleverer player will give him trouble. But with his service so damn good now, there will be less opportunity. That Turin court was so fast.
Casper Ruud is a good player but he is largely there as he went through the clay court tournaments post Wimbledon and won four in four weeks.
Tennis starts again for Murray on December 16th as he is playing in The Middle East. QF against Thiem, winner plays Nadal. Think it’s Rublev, Ruud and Shapo in the other half.

County played extremely well against Livi despite losing, two commanding wins against Dundee and Hibs, and giving Rangers a fright at Ibrox has seen County look a far better outfit, and certainly more dangerous. The next four matches could see County really push forward.

Sorry but I didnt say that. I have said we have played 2 games without conceding a goal and in those games we have scored 6. I did not say that we have not conceded a goal in the last 2 games. Big difference. As I am sure you are aware keeping clean sheets is a bit of a rarity for us so its a point worth noting
County have played more than two games without conceding a goal though, so you're still wrong.

Why would I ? I have stated we have played 2 games without conceding a goal and in those games we have scored 6. I think you will find that is correct.
As you're wrong. We conceded four in the last match we played. So County haven't played two games without conceding a goal.

You may as well draw it now as EindhovenDee is awaiting in the final, so when Dearyme beats me they can go straight into the final.

It does seem to be a massive clusterfuck on all sides. It does seem that Tennis Australia is massively at fault for giving out the wrong information.
Looking through documentation the prior infection would only give you an exemption only if it was the reason you could not get vaccinated.
I’d be very surprised to see him win his appeal. Fully expect him to be getting deported by the time I get up tomorrow morning. The other two using the same exemption as Novak have been deported already.
This isn’t new in tennis VISA mix ups occur and Medvedev was not allowed to compete in GB Challengers a few years ago because of a visa mix up. I am pretty sure there was a hold up in his visa for getting into the states this summer for his us open win. But would have to look it up.
Anyway Murray will play a qualifier on Tuesday and if he wins he will play #2 seed Basilashvili in round 2. He beat him the last time they played, so not the worse draw he could get.
