    Not heard of him, but I'm not a tennis fan.

    But it is good to be featured in the press for good reasons.

    I'd never heard of him either but I'm just watching television and he seems to be doing well against Federer

    Apparently, he was on the verge of quitting tennis - or, at least coaching - at the beginning of the year, but his girlfriend persuaded him to stick with it. I be he's glad he did.

    Not a bad day's pay off was it?

    He got something like £30,000 for his appearance, didn't he?

    The landlord of my local says it was £50k according to the paper he was reading at the time. - Definitely not to be sneezed at for a few hours work.

    I wish this guy well for the future, I hope we haven't heard the last of him.
