Well... it's certainly been a week!

Come join Peter, Claire and Scott as they sit down together in Murray Musings HQ to discuss the last week and a half of tennis action before turning their attention to the week and a half of tennis action to come. They also talk Ash Barty and the groundbreaking news regarding the current world number 1's decision to take early retirement! What does this mean?! Where does the WTA go from here?! It's all discussed right here in your favourite Andy Murray podcast!... (probably because it's the only Andy Murray podcast available but STILL!)

Just the other night, Andy Murray reached a career milestone that at one point looked to be just about out of his reach. 700 career match wins put him in an elite category of players to reach that number and it only adds to his legacy as one of the greatest, both of his generation and of all time. Join Peter, Claire and Scott as they discuss the match while SOMEHOW FORGETTING TO MENTION THE NUMBER 700 AT ALL THROUGHOUT THE EPISODE! In their defence, it was early in the morning for Claire and Scott and late at night for Peter and so we think that we can all agree that the best course of action is to blame Scott and be done with it...

Anyways, we hope you enjoy and here's to 800!

It's our 50th episode! Thank you all for sticking with us through this weird journey that we started over a year ago now, we can't quite believe that we've made it to this point and we can't quite believe people still listen on in to us, especially given the fact that Scott's been on 95% of the episodes and never shuts up. The perseverance from all of you to put up with THAT is simply astounding!

Anyways, come join us for a special 50th episode where we discuss Andy Murray's BIG coaching hire announcement made just last week. Does this mean a change of fortunes for our man after an up-and-down season so far?! Peter joins us on this call live from on-site at Indian Wells, a tournament that Andy will be playing in this coming week! 

Safe to say it's all kicking off on this week's episode of Murray Musings!

Peter took charge of the Murray Musings ship this week as he sat down in the HQ with general tennis twitter legend LaWanda to talk all things Indian Wells. LaWanda guides us through her origin story with tennis and how exactly she came to be known as a player selfie extraordinaire out in the desert. Wherever you're at, stick some headphones in and let Peter and LaWanda take you through why Indian Wells is so unique. 

Indeed he did!

Joining our hosts on the show today is Travis Landry, a longtime Andy Murray fan and friend of the podcast. Travis brings with him fond/not-so-fond memories of being there live as Stefanos Tsitsipas beat Andy at the US Open last year. Alongside this, we discuss Travis and Peter meeting in person this week at the Dallas Open, what the tournament was like as a whole and what, exactly, it was like to get the chance to interview British number 4 Liam Broady!

...oh, we also discuss Andy's recent results and his upcoming match against Taro Daniel as well!

Just last night, our hosts got the band back together and brought in the Tennis and Bagels Podcast boys to help them run over the second week's happenings at the Australian Open (can you believe they continued the tournament after Andy lost? Unbelievable...). On top of that, they also chitchat about the recent sad news that former US Open champion Juan Martín del Potro is planning to hang up his racket in the next few weeks. :( And on top of that on top of that, they also discuss Andy's chances in the Rotterdam tournament taking place this coming week!

We ramble, we go off topic, we have no idea what's going on... It's another episode of Murray Musings. 

Well... That was the Australian Open, eh? We all enjoyed it even if it was a bit short but it was good for what it was and it wrapped up after only two matches! Crazy! Weird that they didn't even bother playing beyond the second round... Such a shame...

...

Come have a drink with us as we consider Andy Murray's Australian Open run with Michael/@lobwinners. We review what's gone and preview what's still on the horizon and think about what Andy's next steps could be. 

Better days are to come. Believe it.

Yup, this is a mess but when is it ever not with our hosts?! Come listen to Peter, Claire and Scott... erm... analyse(?!) the Australian Open draw in a last minute fashion that only Murray Musings could be capable of!
