Andy Murray wins second Masters event in Madrid....Get in there!

Andy Murray beat the frog with the fancy pants name; Gilles Simon to win the Madrid Masters. Andy becomes the first Brit ever to win two Masters series events (Cincinnati and Madrid), Andy Murray Madrid Masters Winnerand he did it in style, winning them back to back in the same season.

Here’s a nice picture of him holding the glass half vase he won?

Andy’s win in Madrid means he also becomes the fist Brit to win four titles in a season, you see we‘ve not been very good at tennis in blighty since the players stopped wearing long pantaloons on court.

All in all Andy’s scorching form means that he is likely to close out the season as world number four, which will mean he’ll enter the Australian Open seeded at #4, and so in a great position to challenge the three stooges at the top of the game; Federer, Nadal, and Djokavic.

Andy Murray wins in MadridI wouldn’t bet against Murray winning a slam next year, and if he can slot one in the can early, say Australia, he may find himself challenging for the number three slot.

In my mind the only thing marring his great performances of late, has been his insistence on celebrating his titles in the most ridiculous fashion by dancing a Scottish jig on court (picture left). I mean he does it in front of all those people, it’s just embarrassing Andy, please drop it for next season.

Murray now heads to St. Petersburg to defend his title there this week, then he’ll be in gay Paris for their Masters event at the end of the month. Get in there son!
