Dutch Courage for Murray

It has…ahem…come to my attention (obviously I have my finger on the pulse of all sports) that Andy Murray is getting back on the metaphorical bike tomorrow when he takes on Ivan Ljubicic at the ABN Amro World Tennis Tournament in Rotterdam.

The draw is such that if he makes it through the first round there’s a great chance of reaching the final, probably via Gasquet in the quarters and Simon/Ancic in the semis. You may be one of the Murray-haters (“He’s such a grumpy scot….He needs to cheer up…Bring back Henman…) but I think it would be fantastic if he managed to bounce straight back with a tournament win, taking some ranking points off third-placed Djokovic who sounded off so strongly against Murray at the Aussie Open.
