Murray Doesn’t
Like His Match Schedule
Andy Murray and coach
Ivan Lendl are furious about the Australian Open’s decision to schedule
Roger Federer’s quarterfinal against Jo-Wilfried Tsonga as the Swiss’
fourth consecutive night match at Melbourne Park while the third seeded
Scot is again designated to play in the full afternoon heat with
forecast temperatures close to 30 degrees Celsius.
Tension Between
Rafter and Tomic Has Lessened A Bit
The peace process
between Australian Davis Cup captain Patrick Rafter and the outcast
Bernard Tomic is ongoing but the 20 year-old remains on the suspended
list for next month’s Asia/Oceania Zone Group One tie against Chinese
Taipei in Kaohsiung City.
Raonic Played in
Pain
Milos Raonic had a
logical explanation for his fourth-round hammering at the hands of Roger
Federer at the Australian Open - the Canadian seed was playing with a
pain-killing injection in his left foot.
