and so it was that on the Arthur Ashe court at Flushing Meadows yesterday Rafael Nadal's winning streak, that had seen him claim the number 1 spot, a Masters shield and an Olympic gold, was brought to an end by Andy Murray. It was a match too far for Rafa who has had a very competitive summer since winning Wimbledon and I've no doubt that normal service will be resumed when they meet again.
As for Murray, the guy likes Flushing Meadows as he won the US Junior Open in 2004 and he has the game to beat the Fed. I had predicted he would win the US Open last year, it looks like I was a year out.
