Good Good! He's reasonably powerful but I don't think he'd ever get to the stage where either his forehand or backhand will be considered one of the best around. He's brilliant when he's got a target at the net but he doesn't hit too many winners when both are at the baseline, he earns most of his points by working them well. Reminds me of Nalbandian in the way he plays. The "New Henman" thing is just because we're so short of talent at the moment, he's the complete opposite to Henman. He doesn't serve volley, clay is his favourite surface, he's charasmatic, he's Scottish etc. Just wait till I have a son, he'll be the first no.1 Britain has had in a long time, mark my words

Oh no, I dont ever see him having a Roddick or Gonzalez forehand (that man's got power! ;D) but he is pretty powerful. Dont suppose I got the full picture of him seeing as he won his match so easily. Could just pick bits out like I have done, but yes he is very good at constructing points Its so frustrating though as I said earlier he really is nothing like him. Oh well, let the media fawn all over him, he says he wont be deterred by it. We'll see if he really can handle the pressure in the years to come as he hopefully progresses. I'll remember that about your son to be

FRENCH OPEN CHAMPION RAFAEL NADAL ON ANDREW MURRAY: "If he improves, for sure Andy can get to top 10 in the world. "I have good relations with Andy, I've known him for four or five years before with our junior competitions. I never played against him in singles, only doubles but I have watched him on the internet playing tournaments recently and he's playing good. He's young, he won his first Grand Slam match and that's good for England people too, no?"

I guess only England people can answer that!

Obviously, Nadal didn't know the difference between England and Great Britain.

The win over Sexxxy Rad was most impressive.

Or rather Rad's GS record speaks for itself. Of course, not nearly as accomplished as Ljubo
