News on twitter is that Pete is considering coming out of retirement for this years Wimbledon!
Arguably one of the best tennis players of all time, but how will he do against the current players who are in their prime?

Not wishing to be sceptical but I'll believe it when I see it. If it were to happen I would be surprised if he got further than the Second Round as age, physical condition and far different court conditions to the ones he loved at Wimbledon would come as a shock to him.

Does he need cash already?

He probably means entering double. I'll be surprised if he wins more than 6 games at Singles.

I hear the reason he's coming back is he wants to equal Feds slam count

Oh you beat me to it!

I was going to say I had been doing some close anaysis of some of Murrays past matches and been converted. Not only had I become a fan but I was now convinced he would win Wimbledon without losing a set...

There must be something on Pete´s comeback. He supposedly plays left hand now and also double handed BH, due to slower courts. I have also heard that a certain Tony has already said that Nadull must adjust himself to Pete´s new game Cool
