Congratulations to Andrew Murray on winning the US Open Boy’s title at Flushing Meadow at the weekend. Yes! You read that right! Seventeen year old Andrew comes from Dunblane, Scotland and just may be the future of British tennis! Things were looking pretty bleak there - Greg Rusedski is more or less finished and Tim Henman has just turned thirty, so may only have a couple of years left. Who was going to carry the hopes of the nation?

Andrew also won the Canadian Open title in 2003 and is easily at the age where he can compete in Wimbledon next year.

Evil thought: How great would it be if it was a Scot who lifted the men’s trophy after all this time? How upset would all those luvvies be at the All England Club? *snickers*
