Radwanska who is now the world number 12 signed a sponsorship deal with Longines the Swiss watch manufacturer.

“It’s a privilege to be a Longines Ambassador of Elegance,” said Radwanska, who has joined legendary tennis couple, Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf, in the family of Longines partners.

Sponsorship deals like this really make me wonder who is running companies like Longines and deciding that providing tennis players with sponsorships is really going to help them sell more watches. I can see that providing one of the top 5 players in the world with sponsorships might be a good idea, but only if you can get this is some advertising campaigns in return, thus providing a top quality brand image. However, im sure Radwanska by herself wont help Longines to sell any more of their world famous watches!

Andy Murray has beaten some great players in the last two weeks, including Raphael Nadal, but is it time that he stepped forward and took a Grand Slam title?

Murray will be facing Roger Federer in about two hours time and of course Murray will be the underdog, but we will see if there is fight still left in the dog.

Andy played some of the best tennis he has ever played, in the semi final against Raphael Nadal. It will be a big tasks for him to back it up again against Roger in the final, but I’m not too sure he can!

Over the last six months to a year Murray has made a lot of progress on his fitness and this is starting to show in his tournament results. Somehow, according to the rankings he is already the number 4 player in the world (which I don’t think is entirely correct), but he has earned his spot in the top ten, and this could be the night a Brit proves something to critics.
