Eight of the top nine players in the world have arrived in London to compete (injury denied Andy Roddick his chance) so it could be argued the quality on show at the O2 Arena will be even greater than some Wimbledons of years gone by. In no other sport would you find the top professionals together enjoying the moment and each others company, maybe sharing a joke and being just friends.

There it’s rarely the case the best eight players make it to the quarter-finals. At the O2 it will be heavyweight v heavyweight for every match; an apt description given this arena is likely to be transformed for David Haye’s first world-title defence in the New Year.

With ticket sales having gone well, so we are told, the atmosphere looks set to be grand with nearly 20,000 fans roaring on the combatants – considerably more than Centre Court can hold in SW19.
