I know there are bits and pieces to do with Jamie, in Andy's forum but thought it would be nice for him to have his own

Funnily enough, I am currently looking at unis, and Stirling, where he trains is one that we are looking at as a serious candidate! :D

Re: Jamie Murray thread

Jamie is currently ranked 90 in the world in doubles (his highest ranking ever). His usual partner on the challenger circut is Colin Fleming.

The challenger where I saw him, he partnered with Paul Capdeville because his and Colin's ranking was not high enough. I'll post my photos from the challenger:

with Colin Fleming

with Paul Capedeville





Me and Jamie :hearts: He was so lovely. He apologized for being sweaty when taking the picture with me. :)

My friend and Jamie

Re: Jamie Murray thread

Thanks for posting the pictures.

I've never had the opportunity to see Jamie play or follow much of his career to date. I'd be interested to hear on others opinions on his game and his prospects. Will he be a doubles specialist and does he have the potential to reach the top?

he looks alot like the mother

Re: Jamie Murray thread





If you are keen on sports then Stirling would be a great choice. It has excellent sporting facilities


Getting back to Jamie now though i really hope we see him and Andy playing doubles against Netherlands next year. He is a great talent and should be given all the help he can get to get into the top 50 or wherever in doubles

Re: Jamie Murray thread

Jaime and Andy lost their doubles match against Jim Thomas and Paul Goldstein 7-6, 6-1. They reached the semifinals which is pretty good. Let's hope Jaime's doubles ranking can continue to rise. :)

When I saw him play, he was playing with Paul Capdeville and they reached the quarters. I think this was their first time playing with each other. You could tell that Jaime was a lot more comfortable out there than Paul was. I really think he could be a solid top 50 doubles player or even higher depending if he gets the right partner.

Jamie Murray, Andy's brother, has become Britain's number one doubles player for the first time at a career-high 88 on the world list, overtaking James Auckland.
:woohoo:

Re: Jamie Murray thread

:yeah: - it's good to see competition forming for Aucks. Surprised that the QF appearance in Tokyo made such a huge difference to Jamie's ranking!

Re: Jamie Murray thread

Great News!! Nice to see another Brit ranked within the top 100..regardless of whether its singles or dubs.

Re: Jamie Murray thread

Not too sure why Jamie has not played since Tokyo(?) and it doesn't look like he will for the rest of the year. Is he just taking an early break, or is it because he won't get into the ATP events? :confused: Hopefully 2007 will be awesome for JM.

Jamie is playing with Jamie Delgado in Nottingham this week, they're seeded #1. Good luck!

Re: Jamie Murray thread

Jaime and Jaime won 6-1, 6-1 :woohoo:
Delgado & Murray [GBR] beat Crisp & Harfield [GBR] | 6-1 6-1 :yeah:

Good solid win.. Sweet4Richard - why do you spell "Jamie" phonetically? Is there a story behind it, or...? :D

Re: Jamie Murray thread

Delgado/Murray beat Goodall/Hutchins 7-6(4) 6-4

They will play Prpic/Tourte in the Final after they beat Motti/Vico.
Not sure if this means they have beaten Motti/Vico? Or if this poster is particularly confident :D

Re: Jamie Murray thread

We should have Jamie/Kerr playing against Auckland/Delgado. Shame they were both in the same half of the draw but im sure at the start of next season they will be going into these tournaments as top seeds and soon getting direct entry to ATP doubles events.

Agreed. Yes it is a pity that they are in the same half of the draw, though it will be interesting to see who comes out on top and by what score (if they both win in their first & second round matches of course).

Re: Jamie Murray thread

Jamie & Jordan won in three, while James/Jamie won 5 and 1 so both GB teams through to the quarters in Aachen :D
