He's looking great, good win last week and confidence flowing. Usually wouldn't bet against nadal on clay but Andy dragging him all over the court.

Rafa's timing is all out to be fair.

It would be great if Andy became a clay court specialist!

Never thought about it before but common knowledge he moved to Spain when he was a youngster to play / develop. All clay courts there I would have thought? Commentators said as much..

Brilliant. Beating the top clay man in his back yard. The French will be fascinating.

To be fair to Nadal, he's nowhere near his best.

However Murray deserves great credit for winning in Madrid. It's a great win for him and I hope he can go on to have another excellent week in Rome next week and then do well at Roland Garros at the end of the month as well.

Think Murray didn't get the credit he deserved for that win. A lot of people saying it isn't the same Nadal which is true but I am sure I read he didn't drop a set on his way to the final. He still is a force to be reckoned with on clay.

At seed 7, if the world rankings are carried through, he is someone I would not like Andy to face in Paris in the quarters and then face Federer and Djokavic.

Murray was excellent yesterday and bossed the game.

I was chatting to a pal last night saying that we should check prices for Murray's next opponent beating him as he was a cert to be happy with one game in Rome and then 'ahem' lose. Then he goes and withdraws!
