Andrew Murray has had a pretty good year so far and 2005 promises to be even better if we can believe the hype.
So is he really our best prospect for a long time or will it just be more shattered dreams and mediocre performances?
Only the results will tell and over the next couple of weeks he will be competing in a couple of spanish futures.
The steep climb to the top 50 starts here.

What a great end to the year, winning another final to make 4 this year and a probable ranking of just below 400.
Looking forward to next year already.

The Tennis Diet:
On the eve of the Roddick/Cilic match, my brother made Seafood Marinara. Can't eat it,
it's not part of the diet; it is enemy food. ie. Marin-ara Cilic.
I also did not eat Curry 'cos it rhymes with Murray.
I fangirl for Roddickulous, Youzhless and the Djoke.
I presume this is Andy's thread then
Cool-saw him at Surbiton, and Manchester & Bolton. Very impressed every time, so glad to see him playing Davis Cup.
He and Sherwood will play Erlich/Ram (tricky!) on Saturday. Can't wait Good luck boet

Davis Cup debutants Andrew Murray and David Sherwood produced a remarkable performance to give Great Britain a 2-1 lead over Israel in Tel Aviv.
Murray, 17, became Britain's youngest ever Davis Cup player in a 6-4 7-6 (7-5) 2-6 7-6 (7-5) win over Jonathan Erlich and Andy Ram.
GB captain Jeremy Bates had resisted the temptation to draft in Greg Rusedski for the crucial doubles.
Britain must now win one of Sunday's two singles rubbers to clinch the tie.
Bates was vindicated for a brave doubles decision and, with Rusedski a heavy favourite to beat Israel's number one Noam Okun in the fourth rubber, his side are in a strong position.
Both Murray and the 24-year-old Sherwood were making their Davis Cup debuts against an experienced pair with world-class pedigree.
With Rusedski on the sidelines the attention was firmly on Murray, and he did not disappoint.
The Scot's first shot in Davis Cup tennis was a blistering return and he proved the most impressive player on show in the early stages, firing four first serves on his way to confidently closing out the set.
Sherwood was playing his part as the Britons twice went a break up in the second set but they could not convert and looked in trouble at 4-1 down in the tie-break.
However, a storming response from both Murray and Sherwood stunned the home crowd and the Scot was particularly fired up as they moved two sets clear.
After the drama of the tie-break the Britons fell flat in the third and it quickly slipped away.
The fourth looked to be heading in the same direction but Bates' men dug deep to twice break back, the second when facing three set points at 0-40 when 5-6 down.
That proved the final blow for a demoralised Erlich and Ram as the British pair swept throught the tie-break for a spectacular win.
