Andy Murray, Surprise Semifinalist in Monte Carlo
Andy Murray (GBR) (#4) is not really a name you'd associate with clay, even though he's definitely in that circle of elite tennis player's in the men's game. However, this early in the clay court season, he has sent a message to everyone that he is a possible threat in the French Open, by reaching the semifinals in Monte Carlo. He loses to eventual champion, Rafael Nadal. This was his path to the semi's -
SF - lost to Rafael Nadal (ESP) (#1) 46 62 16
QF - Fernando Gil (POR) (#82) 62 61
3R - Gilles Simon (FRA) (#24) 63 63
2R - Radek Stepanek (CZE) (#70) 61 64
1R - Bye
