THE STARS ON ANDREW

In the spirit of locker room banter this is what eight great champions had to say about the author. I thank them all for their ‘kind’ contributions and, most of all, for entering into the spirit of this book!

‘His serve wasn’t as great as his love of heavy metal music.’

Pat Cash

‘I’m glad I never had to watch him play.’

Novak Djokovic

‘I think he’s that guy I see at the coin toss at my Wimbledon finals.’

Roger Federer

‘If he’d worked as hard as me when he played I still wouldn’t have lost to him!’

Ivan Lendl

‘If he’d only had a bit more of my talent he might have made an average player.’

John McEnroe 

‘He’s one of those I see around the Tour from time to time but I’m not entirely sure what he actually does.’

Andy Murray

‘His Spanish is terrible.’    

Rafa Nadal

But perhaps the final word has to go to my old friend

 ‘I’ve heard all these stories and more from him over the years. It’s a pity he didn’t include the better stuff as well!’

Dennis Archer

Though it feels like a long time ago, I promise I didn’t wear this gear when I was playing!
