The clay court season is underway with many tournaments starting with the tournament in Houston and Marrakech. No big name players are playing yet but there are some players we know playing in the Houston tournament. I'm just waiting for the big names to start playing as they are more interesting to watch.

Yes, I posted the tournament schedules about a week ago. But I would rather watch the game in the round of 64 or 32 so that it gets more exciting and maybe we can see some upsets.

I'm yet to decide on who to bet on in this years French Open, I'm thinking about have several bets like I did last year. Thiem I like on clay for an outsider but its hard to go passed Nadal if he is fully fit and ready to go. Djokovic is another that can challenge Nadal and win and I haven't heard any news about Federer playing yet? There is a chance that he will play if this is his final year.

Thiem is a good underdog because of his performance last year. Of course Nadal will still be the favorite specially if he is 100% physically and mentally ready. Djokovic has started this year at the wrong foot so maybe he is preparing hard in this tournament. Roger hasn't decided to play, but I think he will enter this year.

Alexander Zverev lost to unseeded Jaume Munar in three sets at the Grand Prix Hassan II which was somewhat of an upset. Alexander Zverev is another player I was thinking about betting on for the French Open but after this performance I'm just not sure. He is up and down with form and is very hard to know when he will win or not as when he is the favourite to win matches he ends up losing a lot of the time against lower ranked players. Right now I am thinking of putting some money on Thiem, Djokovic and if Federer does play I might also put a bet on him as he has been in good form recently.

Was there some new press conference from Andy's team? Last one I saw was the one where he broke in front of press and said his career is over. He really sounded like he doesen't have the will to fight with injuries any more. He even said something like he is doing rehab only to have better quality of his after tennis life.

No press conference but just a video which I posted earlier showing him swinging (and some updates on his injury). That's why there is a big buzz that he might come back this year or early next year to try and revived his tennis career. We just have several discussions that Andy might or might not have that itch inside of him to return and play great tennis again. So we will see.

^^ Yep, we discussed all about his sudden comeback and that basing on his performance on the next tournament he entered, we come to the conclusion that Andy hasn't fully recovered. But if he is going to rest for about a year or so. Just maybe it can healed properly, and then he resumes again, just joining small tournaments and gauge how his back is doing and probably could go max 80%-90%. A slow and hard grinding, anyways, wish him the best. Grin

First let him recover the injury then player like Murray will come back soon once they find themselves fit. There are four players in the current tennis,

Federer
Djokovic
Nadal
Murray

It's fun to see they dance in the court.

~ snip ~

The problem is that Murray's injury is worse then any injuries that Nadal and the others have sustained in their careers so it will be a huge challenge to see him come back fully fit next year. This is the reason why I don't compare Murray with the other three players as they haven't had an injury as bad as what Murray has even though he is just 31 years old. This happens in all sports as I have seen even young players in their early 20's having to retire from the sport because of a bad injury. Lets just see what happens, if we see Murray compete at Wimbledon this year then that could be his farewell tournament as he did mention this after his exit at the Australian Open.

Both Nadal and Federer had back injuries as far as I know, and throughout their careers suffered knee, wrist, 'tennis elbow' even ankle injuries. And all of them hits hard and play behind the line another factor that may contribute to someones injury (in the case Andy Murray). Maybe Andy wasn't to recover that fast or play when the injury is not 100% healed.

Well we did talk about this when he came back in that tournament in China I believe late last year. We both thought then that he came back too early and it showed as he had to pull out of the tournament and in the Australia Open he wasn't right to play. A hip injury is a whole lot different then back and other injuries and that is why I think it will be hard for him to come back to playing at the elite level again even if it does heal 100%.

Fair enough. Let's just wait for his official announcement if he really wanted to return next year. It's early to say. Those 4 have been dancing in the court for many years now and we have seen a lot of them played exceptionally well, way above, high level tennis. And we don't know how long we gonna see them entertain us, Federer and Nadal are not getting any younger. And there are a lot of young players now who is trying to carry the torch and be the next generation of top 4 or 5.

For me Andy Murray is done. His injury is worst than we initially thought.

I will assume that he has lots of money in the bank and there's no need for him to compete anymore and damage himself more in the process.

And why risk your health? We just hope that he can recover, but we want him to rest so that he won't aggravate, health comes first.

I think the same as he should concentrate more on his health then playing tennis. If he does get back for Wimbledon then good on him but still if he isn't right then give it a miss. Some players don't get the chance to have a farewell match and this could be the case for Murray but we shall see.

He is 31 years of age, too young to retire, look at Nadal and Federer still pushing their body and competing at a high level. Yes it's the wear and tear and the grueling tennis matches we have seen him in the past, but I think he can make a comeback, maybe in the middle or at least in the last quarter of this year. He could enter small tournaments and re-assess his conditions or maybe rest and comeback fully healed for next year.

Don't know if we can include Murray in this list, at least not with the current tennis he is performing. Obviously, when he was in best shape he was one of the best players on the planet but right now don't know if he could ever get back to that form. He is still only 31 years old but time is passing and it seems like he's not yet able to start playing at a high level again. Let's see how he performs when he's going to come back, hope he could at least get back in top 50 or so.
