BRITISH No.1 Andy Murray returns to competitive action on Wednesday for the first time since his Australian Open Final defeat to Novak Djokovic.

AUSTRALIA and England will meet for the seventh and final time in Perth early on *Sunday, unfortunately in a dead rubber, rather than a nailbiting one-day series decider. With the seven-match series tied up 5-1 in the hosts’ favour and the World Cup just around the corner they have chosen to rest skipper Michael Clarke and opener Shane Watson. England’s […]

SCOT Andy Murray is just one win from Grand Slam glory and I reckon it will be third time lucky for the British No.1 when he contests the Australian Open final early on Sunday morning.

Jurgen Melzer was undoubtedly the British No.1’s toughest test so far in Melbourne but Murray crushed the No.11 seed 6-3 6-1 6-1 in 103 blistering minutes.

THE first tennis Grand Slam of 2011 is only a matter of hours away and I would be delighted if we are celebrating Andy Murray’s first major victory on January 30. Every season begins with the question “is this Murray’s year?” and to be fair to the Scot he’s trying to succeed in an era that boasts the two greatest […]

England’s hopes of wrapping up the Ashes before Christmas were destroyed in Perth as Mitchell Johnson and Michael Hussey led Australia to a thumping 267-run third Test win. Andrew Strauss’ troops remain confident they can bounce back at the MCG and grab a win, a result that would see them retain the famous urn. Australia, however, are right in the […]

THE ASHES gets underway this week with England’s cricketers confident of their first victory Down Under since 1986-87. Andrew Strauss’ troops are playing better than ever but I believe they will still come up short against Australia. The bookies agree and how often do they get it wrong? England arrived in Australia four years ago in the same frame of […]

The season-ending Barclays ATP World Tour Finals get underway on Sunday with British No.1 Andy Murray tackling Paris Masters champion Robin Soderling.

Gael Monfils was the toast of Paris last night after a sensational maiden career victory over top seed Roger Federer. The Frenchman, playing in his home city, delighted his supporters at the Palais Omnisports with a 7-6(7) 6-7(1) 7-6(4) semi-final success. But rather than basking in his first win over the Swiss in six attempts, 24-year-old Monfils will be plotting […]

BRITISH No.1 Andy Murray felt the full force of a Gael yesterday in Paris – Gael Monfils. The Frenchman dumped Murray 6-2 2-6 6-3 to set up a showdown with Roger Federer in the Paris Masters.

It’s quarter-final day at the ATP 1000 Paris Masters with British No.1 Andy Murray in action against local hero Gael Monfils. Murray, (2-5, Boylesports, Betfred, 888sport, Blue Square) leads Monfils (9-4, bet365, totesport, Ladbrokes) 3-1 in previous meetings and I reckon the Scot will extend his lead after a tough clash with the flamboyant Frenchman. Both players came through in […]

The ATP 1000 Shanghai Rolex Masters is underway in China and I’m sticking with Rafael Nadal, my tip for last month’s US Open, to grab his eight title of 2010. Spain’s world No.1 is the current French Open, Wimbledon and US Open champion, the first man to win three Grand Slam championships in a row since Rod Laver captured the […]

The 23-year-old Scot (2-11, boylesports) tackles Ivan Ljubicic, a player I backed to win his last-16 clash with Alexandr Dolgopolov. I urged you to get your money on the world No.17 from Croatia, evens with some […]

Veteran Croat Ivan Ljubicic got off to a flying start at the China Open with an impressive straight-sets victory over US Open semi-finalist and No.7 seed Mikhail Youzhny on Tuesday.

The first rounds of the ATP 500 Japan and Beijing Opens have now concluded but not before I served a couple of aces of my own.

By David Jack BOOKIES reckon Rafa Nadal is the man to beat in men’s tennis after winning the US Open final. I tipped the Spaniard at 7-2 at the start of the tournament and he won in sensational style, dropping his only set in the final. The odds suggest there has been a real changing of the guard at the […]
