The Tennis year so far...

WHEN THE NEW YEAR DAWNED BACK IN JANUARY,
THE ATP WORLD TOUR WHICH RUNS MEN’S TENNIS
TOOK AN EDUCATED GUESS AND BASED ITS NEW
PUBLICITY CAMPAIGN ON THE FOUR STAR PLAYERS
OF THE MEN’S GAME, WAITING CROUCHED ON THE
STARTING LINE OF A RUNNING TRACK, READY TO
SPRINT INTO ACTION.
Most respected observers expected Roger Federer to come blazing out of the

personal property but how wrong they were. Instead it was the three young lions,
Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Britain’s own Andy Murray that made the pace.
