Andy Murray is testing out retired Swedish tennis player Jonas Bjorkman,with a view to adding the doubles specialist to his coaching team.The 42 year old Bjorkman will spend a week with Murray some time next month ahead of potentially joining the player's coaching team on a permanent basis.Bjorkman is currently on a Swedish reality television show.(Mauresmo is only committed to Murray for 25 weeks per year).Report from AP,Wednesday March 11th.

At 42 years of age Bjorkman probably still has a better 2nd serve than Murray so it may help him.

Hey, GSM, Bellucci lost hist eight straight match at Irving (by the way, a very strong field in this challenger, filled with people who lost early in IW).

It seems that your evil plan to morally destabilize him is working. Shame on you.
