Murray Musings

By Claire, Scott and Peter

Three friends come together to talk about the Scottish professional tennis player, Andy Murray. Listen in as they examine Andy's career in a detail that only the most passionately dedicated/obsessive(!?) of fans could manage. Follow Claire, Scott and Peter as they ramble, rave, and generally attempt to articulate their love for the man that's given them so much joy. As Andy looks to prove that he's still capable of top level tennis ahead of the 2021 season, join his biggest fans as they prepare themselves for what could well be the most important year in their hero's career so far...

Episode 92 - "Bienvenidos a Miami"

Peter and Claire sat down for a little chit chat ahead of Andy's first round match with (sob) Matteo Berrettini in Miami - although, full disclaimer, if you've come to MMHQ looking for a full and thorough analysis of the Miami Open draw, you are without doubt in the wrong place. If you're here for general chaos and delusional Andy Murray-related chat... we got you. Enjoy and as ever, thanks for listening!

If this is it, we're just going to miss knowing that he was going to be playing at some point again. Come sit with us awhile and digest the news that we will very likely end this year with Andy Murray no longer an active ATP professional...

Episode 87 - AO! Let's Go!

Peter and Claire were joined in MMHQ by our good friends Owen and Andre of Tennis & Bagels podcast fame to dissect the Australian Open draw in typical Murray Musings fashion - unserious, slightly chaotic, lots of laughter and talking over one another, and of course, good vibes only.


How will our favourite guy do in Melbourne for the first major of the year? Listen in to hear our thoughts...


Once again, please forgive the lack of Andy outro and any minor sound issues - Claire still hasn't quite completed her course in "how to upload" yet ;-)

Peter and Scott sat down in Murray Musings HQ a few days ago to have a third recorded chitchat with Ben Rothenberg. Ben comes with his usual insight on the tennis media landscape but this time, he's got a book to promote as well!

That was a season that happened. But so quick will some right Andy Murray's 2023 season off as a disappointment, our hosts aren't of that ilk.

Episode 83 - A Conversation with Stuart Fraser

Episode 83 - A Conversation with Stuart Fraser

A few nights ago, Peter and Scott had the pleasure of hosting the tennis correspondent for The Times newspaper Stuart (Stu) Fraser in Murray Musings HQ.


Originally from Scotland, Stu now lives down in London and is on the move a LOT covering the game we love for one of the most prominent news outlets. Stu brings with him tales of behind the scenes press conferences, advice on how to break into the industry, critique of the LTA and a unique insight into what it's like to interview the man himself, Andy Murray...

Episode 81 - Peter tries to ignore the fact Novak won the US Open...

Scott is back editing these episodes as you can probably tell from the title here. Our hosts were back together post-US Open to talk about it and the upcoming Davis Cup that our man Andy will be playing in... hopefully... maybe... if he's picked to play... please dear god let him be picked to play...

The final major of the year is upon us! Join Peter, Scott and Claire as they chew the fat over the upcoming US Open and how they think their hero - a certain Sir Andy Murray - will fare over the course of the next fortnight... will we see Andy make it through to the second week of a slam for the first time since 2017??


WE THINK SO!

Episode 79 - Dave Sammel returns to MMHQ!

Welcome back to MMHQ! Ahead of the US Open, Claire was thrilled to sit down with friend of the pod - and coach of one of our faves Liam Broady - Dave Sammel to look back on his three stand-out matches from the Australian Open, French Open and Wimbledon, and chat about the work that goes into preparing your player for a major competition. As ever, it was an absolute joy to chat to Dave, and we hope you enjoy his insights!


PS - if you're still listening out for our Andy intro... don't - Elder Millennial Claire (that's what we're calling her now) has figured out how to do it but her laptop won't let her download the programme. We will get Andy back eventually, we promise! For now, enjoy the tranquil sound of silence.

Episode 78 - A Wimbledon Special

The whole gang is back together as they gather round the firepit to discuss the weeks that were Wimbledon - less of an analytical roundup and more of Claire babbling on about her visit to the sacred grounds. It's been over a week since Vondrousova and Alcaraz lifted their maiden Wimbledon titles (spoiler alert) so please forgive our typical Murray Musings timings on this one!

Episode 76 - A Surbiton Special

Episode 76 - A Surbiton Special

OK, so Claire did promise that she would either learn how to add Andy back in, or that Scott would be back to start doing it again... neither has happened *YET* but it will, it will!


In the meantime, join Claire and Peter as they sit down and chat about the week that was in glorious Sunny Surbiton! Andy Murray is a grass court champion once again, and we couldn't be happier! Prepare for a laugh as we try to remember exactly how each match went, and listen in as Claire compares Ivan Lendl to a grumpy pet cat...

Claire and Peter are besides themselves with joy as they celebrate Andy winning his first title since November 2019 - 1295 days ago - and his first on clay since 2016, beating top seed (and world number 17, and Australian Open semi-finalist!!) Tommy Paul in the Aix-en-Provence Challenger 175 event.

Episode 72 - The Top 5s plus a little bit extra

*Not a Madrid preview*

Chaos ensues as Scott, Peter and Claire get together to discuss their top five Andy Murray matches - we lose Peter twice due to storms raging through Texas and Claire trashes MMHQ after discovering Scott "stole" two of her top five picks. But please, sit back and enjoy as our hosts talk about the Murray matches that have left them feeling warm and fuzzy (or in Scott's case, gutted but optimistic...??) on the inside over the course of his career!

*FULL DISCLAIMER* - Claire edited this episode, and we use the term edited in the loosest possible sense, please forgive the fact she's an old millennial, and this is very much the podcast edition of "please forgive any and all typos, have written this on my phone."

ENJOY!

Episode 71 - "I don't want to play here on this surface"

So this episode is now *slightly* out of date because we chatted about Andy's chances in Monte Carlo (we don't know her), he played... and then the tournament just ended so... what happened?! Who knows. Anyway - is it grass season yet? On a brighter note (!!!) listen in as we delve a bit further into Peter's experiences in Indian Wells, including ANOTHER interaction with our main man! (And yes, we do talk about Andy's metal hip given we've never covered that topic before)

Recorded before Indian Wells began, this episode going out and our man STILL BEING IN THE TOURNAMENT AFTER 2 ROUNDS is a a pleasant surprise... Our hosts try to unpack Andy's temperamental history with Indian Wells and why the 2023 edition of the event could be a turning point.

Pull up a chair and settle in with us on this cold, damp and dreary Scottish day.

Tom is an established comic artist and graphic novelist and has just released a book called Suzanne, all about the great French tennis legend Suzanne Lenglen!

Episode 65 - A Conversation with Marcus Buckland

Episode 65 - A Conversation with Marcus Buckland

The day before he flew out to America to cover the WTA Finals, tennis commentator and analyst Marcus Buckland was kind enough to spare some time to sit down and chat with our hosts awhile in Murray Musings HQ. Marcus has previously worked for Sky and currently works for Amazon Prime and so is well-placed to provide some valuable insight into what life is like behind the scenes in the commentary booth. He also offers advice to up-and-coming tennis journalists before going on share his thoughts on whether or not Andy Murray has one more big tournament left in him...

Grab some popcorn because this is a good 'un!

Episode 64 - CLAIRE RAN THE LONDON MARATHON!!!!... Oh, and Andy played some tennis!

Episode 64 - CLAIRE RAN THE LONDON MARATHON!!!!... Oh, and Andy played some tennis!

I usually type these episode descriptions from a half-jokey perspective of an omnipresent overlord in Murray Musings HQ but I'd like to be serious for a second to say that both Peter and myself (Scott!) are very proud of Claire for completing the London Marathon a few weeks ago! She's such a badass and we love her greatly.

But anyways, yes, our boy did play some tennis recently and yes, we do have some thoughts so come join us as we both reflect back on the last few weeks before looking forwards towards Andy's final few tournaments of the season...

Oct 20, 202201:24:03
Episode 63 - From Davis To Laver...

Episode 63 - From Davis To Laver...

Our three hosts finally got their heads in the game and sat down to talk about Andy's journey from the first week of the US Open all the way to Glasgow in Scotland where he participated in the Davis Cup tie last week! And Claire and Scott where there! And Claire even got a selfie with him! And she hasn't shut up about it since! Peter and Scott are considering investing in ear plugs... Aside from that, our hosts also look ahead to this coming weekend's Laver Cup, a pretty significant event given that a little-known player called Roger Federer will play his last professional match there. Get your tissues ready, there's going to be tears...

Episode 62 - Hypothesising Up Until The Fourth Round But No Further...

Alright then...

On the evening before the start of the final major tennis tournament of the year, our three hosts sat down to talk about their boy's chances. Come chill a little as they talk through the possibilities and why it is that all of them are really damn hoping for at the VERY LEAST a second week showing from this tournament. We also hear from Peter about what working at Cincinnati was like and how it feels to now be a recognisable figure for Andy Murray...

Episode 61 - This Episode Is Less Than An Hour Long Because Scott Isn't On It To Interrupt Peter And Claire Every 5 Seconds...

Catchy episode title, we know...

Back at the beginning of this week, Claire and Peter sat down to talk about the recent happenings in the career of some guy called Andy Murray. Thankfully, no real predictions were made for Andy's week in Canada and so you can close your eyes and pretend with us for awhile that THAT match with Taylor Fritz simply didn't happen... 

Aug 13, 202252:45
Episode 60 - Wimbledon And Everything It Contained

Episode 60 - Wimbledon And Everything It Contained

Wimbledon was a thing and it happened and some of it was bad and some of it was fucking excellent because Scott and Claire got to actually go and meet Judy Murray and see Andy Murray and see Jamie Murray and see Venus Williams and my goodness, they met some friends for life. Join our hosts as they unpack what went down in Wimbledon town...

Jul 12, 202201:31:08
Episode 59 - A Conversation with Mark Petchey

Episode 59 - A Conversation with Mark Petchey

Well, this is definitely a Murray Musings highlight!

Former professional player, former coach of Andy Murray and current Amazon Prime tennis commentator and analyst Mark Petchey visited Murray Musings HQ this week and amazingly, didn't get scared off by the fact that one of the very first things Scott wanted to show him was his life-size Andy cardboard cutout! Mark offers insight into his own career, giving advice to aspiring commentators and pundits, as well as telling us about what Andy was like as a teenager trying to make it big in a sport that's notoriously difficult to make it big in. He takes our hosts on trip down memory lane, shares some career highlights and milestones, as well as making a few intriguing predictions for the upcoming Wimbledon fortnight. 

Grab a coffee, a tea, a coke, a glass of water, whatever you fancy, and settle on in. This is a good 'un.

Episode 58 - Murray vs Bublik in Stuttgart

Episode 58 - Murray vs Bublik in Stuttgart

So by this point, it's pretty much a given that Murray Musings content is generally an absolute mess of unfiltered love for Andy Murray and so on this episode, our hosts sat down to commentate on a match as it happened. Oh, yes, listen on in for a whole lot of swearing and screaming and swearing and yelling and swearing and moaning and swearing and...

Jun 09, 202201:40:34
Episode 57 - The French Open with Bagels

Episode 57 - The French Open with Bagels

Ah, yes, another classic "let's record a preview of this tournament when it's already started" episode of Murray Musings! Gotta' love them!

Our hosts sat down alongside Owen, Vansh and Andre from Tennis and Bagels to talk about the French Open and to make their predictions for who's going to beat who along the way. Let it be said that some of these predictions have aged well since this was recorded!... Some have not... We encourage you to laugh freely at the ones that have already disastrously failed.

Episode 56 - Talking About Everything And Anything All At Once

Episode 56 - Talking About Everything And Anything All At Once

So Scott was off this week, the wee skiver, and so Claire and Peter were flying solo but not without some help from their special guest, Nick Carter! A massive tennis fanatic and frequent writer, Nick swings by Murray Musings HQ with his thoughts on who will win the French Open, alongside his thoughts on just about everything else other than tennis to be honest! Grab a cup of hot chocolate and settle in for a conversation that wanders and meanders in a style only Murray Musings is truly capable of...

Episode 55 - A Conversation with Lee @tennisontelly

There were cobwebs hanging from the rafters of Murray Musings HQ when our guest arrived last week, so long has it been since we last recorded an episode. Thankfully, he didn't judge us Scott's cleaning skills too harshly...

You may know Lee better as the man behind the twitter handle in the title of this episode. Lee joins us to talk about his life and how he came to be involved in the British tennis scene alongside many other details and tidbits which may prove handy to anyone thinking about visiting their local tennis tournaments. Come join us for a chitchat, a biscuit, and just a little bit of tennis gossip...

Episode 54 - A Conversation with Bastien Fachan

We're back! Finally! One day we'll get a regular upload schedule on the go again but until then, you'll have to make do with Scott's schedule which is basically whenever he can stop being lazy and get to work...

Anyways! We're back and we've brought a very special guest in to chat with us all at Murray Musings HQ. Bastien Fachan works in tennis social media, most notably having spent time at the Mouratoglou Academy while also tweeting out content for TennisTV! Oh, yes, Bastien's the man behind all of the gifs and clips that you see down your timeline throughout matches. We quiz Bastien on his introduction to tennis, how he got in to the social side of things, before moving on to talk about both Andy Murray, Roger Federer and what their uncertain on-court futures might hold...

Episode 52 - Indian Wells Review, Miami Preview, Ash Barty Career Overview

Well... it's certainly been a week!

Come join Peter, Claire and Scott as they sit down together in Murray Musings HQ to discuss the last week and a half of tennis action before turning their attention to the week and a half of tennis action to come. They also talk Ash Barty and the groundbreaking news regarding the current world number 1's decision to take early retirement! What does this mean?! Where does the WTA go from here?! It's all discussed right here in your favourite Andy Murray podcast!... (probably because it's the only Andy Murray podcast available but STILL!)

Mar 24, 202201:05:51
Episode 51 - 698, 699... 700!!!!

Episode 51 - 698, 699... 700!!!!

Just the other night, Andy Murray reached a career milestone that at one point looked to be just about out of his reach. 700 career match wins put him in an elite category of players to reach that number and it only adds to his legacy as one of the greatest, both of his generation and of all time. Join Peter, Claire and Scott as they discuss the match while SOMEHOW FORGETTING TO MENTION THE NUMBER 700 AT ALL THROUGHOUT THE EPISODE! In their defence, it was early in the morning for Claire and Scott and late at night for Peter and so we think that we can all agree that the best course of action is to blame Scott and be done with it...

Anyways, we hope you enjoy and here's to 800!

Mar 13, 202201:10:47
Episode 50(!!!) - Ivan fu*king Lendl!!!

Episode 50(!!!) - Ivan fu*king Lendl!!!

It's our 50th episode! Thank you all for sticking with us through this weird journey that we started over a year ago now, we can't quite believe that we've made it to this point and we can't quite believe people still listen on in to us, especially given the fact that Scott's been on 95% of the episodes and never shuts up. The perseverance from all of you to put up with THAT is simply astounding!

Anyways, come join us for a special 50th episode where we discuss Andy Murray's BIG coaching hire announcement made just last week. Does this mean a change of fortunes for our man after an up-and-down season so far?! Peter joins us on this call live from on-site at Indian Wells, a tournament that Andy will be playing in this coming week! 

Safe to say it's all kicking off on this week's episode of Murray Musings!

Episode 49 - LaWanda and Indian Wells

Peter took charge of the Murray Musings ship this week as he sat down in the HQ with general tennis twitter legend LaWanda to talk all things Indian Wells. LaWanda guides us through her origin story with tennis and how exactly she came to be known as a player selfie extraordinaire out in the desert. Wherever you're at, stick some headphones in and let Peter and LaWanda take you through why Indian Wells is so unique.

Episode 48 - Peter Got Us A Wee Interview With Liam Broady!

Indeed he did!

Joining our hosts on the show today is Travis Landry, a longtime Andy Murray fan and friend of the podcast. Travis brings with him fond/not-so-fond memories of being there live as Stefanos Tsitsipas beat Andy at the US Open last year. Alongside this, we discuss Travis and Peter meeting in person this week at the Dallas Open, what the tournament was like as a whole and what, exactly, it was like to get the chance to interview British number 4 Liam Broady!

...oh, we also discuss Andy's recent results and his upcoming match against Taro Daniel as well!

Episode 47 - Rotterdam With Bagels

Episode 47 - Rotterdam With Bagels

Just last night, our hosts got the band back together and brought in the Tennis and Bagels Podcast boys to help them run over the second week's happenings at the Australian Open (can you believe they continued the tournament after Andy lost? Unbelievable...). On top of that, they also chitchat about the recent sad news that former US Open champion Juan Martín del Potro is planning to hang up his racket in the next few weeks. :( And on top of that on top of that, they also discuss Andy's chances in the Rotterdam tournament taking place this coming week!

We ramble, we go off topic, we have no idea what's going on... It's another episode of Murray Musings.

Episode 46 - Come Have A Drink With Us...

Well... That was the Australian Open, eh? We all enjoyed it even if it was a bit short but it was good for what it was and it wrapped up after only two matches! Crazy! Weird that they didn't even bother playing beyond the second round... Such a shame...

...

Come have a drink with us as we consider Andy Murray's Australian Open run with Michael/@lobwinners. We review what's gone and preview what's still on the horizon and think about what Andy's next steps could be. 

Better days are to come. Believe it.

Earlier this week, Claire, Peter, Scott and guest host Zainab sat down with Judy Murray(!!!!) to talk about the legacy of the Murray family, how the governing bodies in British tennis have failed to capitalise on her sons' successes and what she thinks of the current Novak Djokovic situation. Judy brings with her a history of helping children enjoy picking up rackets for the first time and level of coaching that could well produce further Scottish/British tennis champions.

Sit back, relax and listen on in to an episode of Murray Musings that our hosts still can't quite believe took place.

Thank you for taking a chance on us, Judy!
