Do they have to give them back? I know they do for slams and get given replicas. I assume they just make a new one every year with the updated draw and winner, so each winner has a different trophy.
Mock the Week fans can rest assured that they could probably fit the baby, plus both dogs into the Beijing Trophy. ![]() Quote:

I've said for ages that he needs to travel with someone who will help make life on the road both fun and fulfilling. Whether this person is called a coach, a hitting partner, or even a PA, if they can schedule his time so he can still have fun as well as working hard, he could be a force to contend with. As things stand, he still is a force to contend with ... some of the time. |

Depends what age range you are classing. Majors will most likely be won by one of Murray, Wawrinka, Djokovic or Del Potro. Not really answering the question i know.

Sorry, that is my fault, just who are the exciting talent to look out for, that maybe have not had the headlines come their way so far in their careers.
Many thanks for this, it is very helpful. |

Late as ever but Rafa has congratulated Andy on twitter.
https://twitter.com/RafaelNadal/stat...22961951272960 He has also said he is ready to die to win another slam, which is good because effort is what he was lacking. He's so lazy. |

As for the other bit, I appreciate the sentiment, but he already killed himself for the Olympics, don't do any more damage please.

Nice tweet and well you're both so right, it's about time the boy realised you need to treat each point as if your life depended upon it. Imagine the stellar career he could have had if Uncle Toni drilled this into him early on.

![]() I'm also a bit worried that the trophy looks dangerous. He'll have someone's eye out with it - hopefully not his own.

Ha! I'm enjoying the fact that even when he's posing doing the #1 sign, he's still not bothered to tie up his laces.

Murray has little chance of winning in Paris , for starters he's in a tournament with other top 10 ranking players - there will be no easy ride in for the Scot On this venture , this tournament will not have the usual tin pot players
he does like winning against the nobody's - fingers crossed Novak smashes him back to reality !

With the Paris Masters just completed it feels like an appropriate time to remind everyone that Janowicz once made a masters final

I was only thinking about Thanasi yesterday and wondering where he's up to with his recovery - he's not giving anything away on his Twitter. He's a player I was really starting to like before his injury so hopefully he'll be back soon - I'm guessing he'll be aiming for the Australian Open, if not a warm-up tournament before that.

We all need Kok in our lives, if only to prove he is the more talented young Aussie player.
