if fed is playing I guess it will make it harder to get tickets

[Rosalind]

I'm going to try and go - missed it last year. Wonder if Rog will wear a kilt!

[cochrar0]

Roger wore kilt to promote his Match For Africa not quite as dashing as Grigor.

[Teresa]

I enjoyed it last year. When will tickets go on sale - anyone know? Where has the bit about Federer playing come from?

Federer held a Q&A on periscope in December and was asked if he'd ever been to Scotland and replied he hadn't but suggested he might be soon and then referenced Andy playing his charity event in Switzerland.

If Federer is the opponent for Andy Live then come hell or high water Andy will have to play in Fed's Match for Africa the day after the Davis Cup tie against France. Other than feeling exhausted, the logistics for doing both should be manageable unless the French were spiteful and picked Guadeloupe or Reunion as a venue. ;) Imagine the grief Andy would receive if he opted out of Davis Cup but still played in Switzerland. :shocked:

Taken from Andy's FBook thread....




Looking forward to the launch of Andy Murray LIVE presented by SSE 2017! It's going to be bigger and better than last year so make sure you keep an eye out on Facebook tomorrow afternoon, I've got some big news!

If the opponent is Federer then in response to him wearing a kilt maybe Andy should yodel the announcement wearing lederhosen whilst firmly gripping an Alpine horn. Other Swiss stereotypes are available. ;)

For those of us that are staying at home in our cozy armchairs.............




Eurosport is delighted to announce it will exclusively broadcast @AndyMurrayLive across Europe & around the world http://bit.ly/2kWwWM5

[JerryD]

This will not be shown on sky this year, instead it will be shown on Eurosport

[Teresa]

I will message you my seat soon - it's on the other pc. Yes, I'm happy to see Federer - it's for charity and he will help to bring in the money. I actually like to see the top names live. And Andy will get a bigger cheer which has to be good for Feddykins to hear! :laugh:

True. I hope Gordon Reid makes an appearance as well. I think that did a great deal to help mainstream disability tennis.

[Bardot]

Two videos from the announcement of Andy Murray Live. Andy saying that Federer's charity event is "just after the Miami tournament in April". Does he realise it's the day after the Davis Cup tie against France? ;)

Didn't realise Mansour Bahrami in the doubles too until I listened to press conference above! That will be great fun.
