booitsme7 Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Andy Murray will play Tommy Robredo in the 2nd round tomorrow as he beat Feliciano Lopez 6-3 3-6 6-3. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 It was pretty cool that you could have watched Djokovic, Nadal, Murray and Berdych on the free courts today. The matches tomorrow should be pretty fun. Tommy Rebredo will be still be hurting after missing ten match points Vs Andy in the last two matches. Then the sibling rivalry. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 This will be the first time in the Open era (I don't know if it has been done before that) that two brothers will have played against each other at doubles. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate to be pedantic but I'm sure the Bryan brothers have played against each other at mixed doubles! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H_B Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Murray and Peers should win handily. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Nooka Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Murray and Peers should win handily. Leander Paes might be getting on a bit but he's a multiple doubles slam winner. He's not going to go down easily, and unless Andy decides to tank it neither will he. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

throbber Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Going to try get tickets for Davis cup on the Saturday, can anyone speculate on how hard it will be to get tickets ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H_B Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Leander Paes might be getting on a bit but he's a multiple doubles slam winner. He's not going to go down easily, and unless Andy decides to tank it neither will he. Its a scratch pair against an in form and regular top doubles pairing. As I said Murray and Peers should win and will be expected to do so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H_B Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Going to try get tickets for Davis cup on the Saturday, can anyone speculate on how hard it will be to get tickets ? Tickets go on sale for BTM members on Tuesday. Public sale of leftovers on Thurs. I don't think it will make Thursday with any left.. However.. There's still time to become a BTM member before Tuesday. Get on the website and pay 15 or 20 and guarantee yourself a ticket. If you've been at an earlier tie you also get access to the Tuesday priority sale. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widge Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 One of the great advantages being a club level player not having to pay for membership. I'm gonna go, just no idea what day to chose. It's got to be either Friday or Saturday. Certainly the doubles atmosphere is always electric since it can be make or break. Then again you get potentially double the amount of tennis on the Friday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Bairn Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Think Andy Murray and Paes will win. Andy Murray would be a top 5 doubles player if he played regularly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
booitsme7 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Andy Murray has beaten Tommy Robredo 6-4 7-5 and will play Gilles Muller next who beat Gael Monfils 6-3 3-6 7-6. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 (edited) Think Andy Murray and Paes will win. Andy Murray would be a top 5 doubles player if he played regularly. If he played all the time he would be better than the Bryans, but you could say that about any of the top ten singles players. As experienced as Paes is, the chemistry between Murray and Peers will be far better. They are quite rightly favourites. Plus with it now been moved till tomorrow Murray will be playing Muller before he plays the doubles. That could easily go three long sets if he serves well. With a QF possibly to prepare for you would have to ask how much his heart will be in it, despite getting to play his brother. Cilic got beat by Tomic today, so that would be an easier QF for Murray if he gets past Muller. Although he deals with Cilic rather well.

H_B Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 If he played all the time he would be better than the Bryans, l. I don't think that's true at all. Its a completely different game. He might be top 10 in the world at doubles but he might not. There's a lot more depth in doubles. He's had some decent Davis Cup doubles results but also some rubbish ATP losses, with decent partners . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
