On the subject of the tennis

I was struck again by how weedy and underfed Murray looks. Whereas there's a photo of Monfils in the Independent this morning where he looks almost like a bodybuilder, his arms are so ripped. I know blakc guys usually have better muscle definition, so Monfils is always likely to LOOK stronger than Murray, but the difference is really startling and Monfils is only a year younger.

Murray has a fantastic aggressive attitude. Loved the way he was looking for a fight yesterday.
