THE MORNING BREW Big moment for tennis player at US Open
MURRAY WINS HIS FIRST
Andy Murray is on a roll after winning the gold at the London Olympics last month and now winning the U.S. Open. With legendary actor Sean Connery in attendance on Monday, Murray beat Novak Djokovic in five sets to achieve his first U.S. Open title. Murray had fallen short five previous times in the U.S. Open final but outlasted the tough Djokovic to get the title.
Murray won the gold medal in the Men's singles at the London Olympics last month, as he beat out Roger Federer 6-2, 6-1, 6-4. Murray also beat Djokovic in the semifinals of the Olympic Games. Murray has always had trouble beating the game's top players, but winning the Olympics and U.S. Open will give his confidence a much-needed boost. Murray is currently ranked No. 3 in the world, according to the ATP ranking, right behind Federer at No. 1 and Djokovic at No. 2. If Murray's success continues he will likely move up in the ATP rankings, but it will take beating the big dogs Federer and Djokovic more than once as they are both proven winners. Murray's 2012 statistics include two single titles and an overall singles record of 40-11.
In the past the media has criticized Murray's play, believing he will never get to that elite level, but this has changed with his recent success. Murray is young, healthy and ready to not only play against the top tennis players but beat them. He has only been a professional tennis player for five years and feels like he has much to improve in his game. The next goal on Murray's list has to be winning Wimbledon, and he has a great chance. Roger Federer is aging, Rafael Nadal
When asked about his future, Murray said, "If I was to stop playing tennis now, I'd retire very happy, but I've hopefully got five more years or so at the top of the game. That's what I try and do, if I can stay healthy and look after my body. That's my plan."
Only 25 years old, Murray has tremendous upside and is optimistic that he'll be one of the top tennis players in the world for years to come.
Tonight the Chicago Bears take on the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau field. This heated rivalry will certainly feature an intense, physical game with both teams loaded with firepower. The Bears and Packers both believe that they are one of the best teams in the league this year. The Bears won their first game last Sunday 41-21 over a rebuilding Indianapolis Colts team. Quarterback Jay Cutler throw for 333 yards and 2 touchdowns. Cutler and big-time receiver Brandon Marshall were in rhythm as well, with Marshall catching nine passes for 119 yards

and a touchdown. The Bears' rookie receiver Alshon Jeffery displayed his big-play ability, catching a 42-yard touchdown from Cutler. The Bears have always featured a great overall team but have continually lacked a big-time receiver. Look for the Bears offense to roll this year as they are set at receiver and have one of the game's best running backs in Matt Forte. Forte had 80 yards and a touch-down against the Colts. The Bears rushing attack also features Michael Bush, who adds a physical presence and can contribute when Forte needs a breather. These two running backs will provide the Bears with a dominant ground game and will prove capable to catch passes out of the backfield. Then there's the Bears' pride and joy, its defense. Players such as Brian Urlacher, Julius Pepper, Lance Briggs and company look to cause havoc to Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rogers and the Packers' pass-heavy offense.
The Packers didn't look to be on par in week one, losing to the San Francisco 49ers 22-30. This wasn't an amazing display of offense by the 49ers; rather the Packers defense not really showing up to play. The Packers secondary blew multiple coverages which allowed for the 49ers' receivers to be wide open for much of the game. The Packers must improve their defense as the Bears feature a quarterback who throws great deep balls and has one of the league's best receivers in Marshall.
On offense I look for the Packers to try to run the ball more in tonight's game. On Sunday Aaron Rodgers was the leading rusher with 27 yards. Cedric Benson had 18 yards as the Packers' starting running back. This is unacceptable even for the league's best passing offense. They have to be able to run the ball with success in order to set up screens, the play action pass and big plays. The 49ers played most of the game in man-to-man coverage with deep safeties as if they were daring the Packers to run. When Rogers was asked about the Packers offensive struggles, he said, "We didn't have the opportunity to take a lot of shots downfield, but when we did, they made some plays on it." Look for Rodgers and the passing attack to bounce back tonight with more big plays, more precise routes by the receivers and better decisions by Rodgers. As for the running game, I don't expect much, but the Packers did win the Super Bowl in 2010 with a primarily passing team. Look for this game to be one of the most exciting, down-to-the-wire games of the season thus far. The Packers' fans will be loud and intense tonight as they do not want to see their team fall to 0-2. The atmosphere will be rocking at Lambeau, as this matchup has all the signs of a future playoff game.
