Speaking out: Andy Murray has renewed his criticism of the ATP's much-maligned drug-testing policy&Photo: GETTY IMAGES
By Astrid Andersson
The Scot - who had to wait for 90 minutes to produce the specimen - claimed there was one system for the top players and another for the journeymen and said that had to change.
"This is the third time I have been tested over the past 16 or 17 days. And we still have to do that [declare our whereabouts]," he said, continuing his criticism of a new ruling which has irritated the top 50 players who are now required to report their whereabouts for at least one hour per day.
"I don't understand why we have to do it during tournament weeks when we're being tested anyway. So many things could be done better.
"Why is is that only the top 50 have to do this whereabouts thing? What about No 51? If this is going to be done it should be done from the Futures level right through to the top."
On the opening day at the indoor event, Murray was corralled along with fellow doubles loser and new Australian Open champion Rafael Nadal for testing along with at least three others.
But despite eight testers on site at the Ahoy arena, only the one available doctor could do the actual test.
That meant waiting one's turn under trying conditions.
"I feel quite strongly that there are a lot of flaws in the system, it can get much much better," said Murray.
"You've just finished a match and are desperate to go to the toilet.
"But I had to wait, you can't go before the test. We have ten and a half months of tennis and we're getting tested at least 25 times."
Murray also said that he kept a light practise schedule last week in snowy London after picking up the light symptoms of a virus.
"I didn't want to let it linger on, if it's not taken care of properly it can get worse. I wanted to be sure I was in shape to play here," he said of the event where he lost in the first round in 2008.
"I didn't have much time off after Melbourne, but I didn't lose much rhythm I'm hitting the ball well."

An African farmer had heard tales about other farmers who had made millions of dollars by discovering diamond mines. These tales so excited the farmer that he could hardly wait to sell his farm and go prospecting for diamonds himself. So he sold the farm and spent the rest of his life wandering the African continent, searching unsuccessfully for the shining stone that brought such high prices on the markets of the world. Finally, broke and worn out, he threw himself into a river and drowned. Meanwhile, back at the farm, the man who had bought his farm happened to be crossing a small river on the property one day when he saw something shining at the bottom of the river. He picked it up. It was a sparkling stone - a good size stone - and, admiring it, he later put it on his fireplace mantel（壁炉架） as an interesting curiosity. Several weeks later, a visitor admired the stone, looked closely at it, lifted it in his hand and nearly fainted. He asked the farmer if he knew what he'd found. When the farmer said no, that he thought it was just a piece of crystal, the visitor told him he had found one of the largest diamonds ever discovered. The farmer was astonished. He told the man that his small river was full of these brilliant stones, and his farmland was covered with them. Not all were as large, perhaps, as the one on his mantel, but they were sprinkled generously throughout his property. Needless to say, the farm the first farmer had sold, so that he could search for a diamond mine, turned out to be the most productive diamond mine on the entire African continent. 【小题1】Why did the first farmer sell his farm? A. He had made a fortune by selling diamonds. B. He was tired of his life as a farmer. C. He wanted to make more money elsewhere. D. He was told that there was no diamonds on his farm. 【小题2】What happened to him after he sold his property? A. He found a river full of diamonds on his farm. B. He lost everything including his own life. C. He discovered a mine filled with brilliant stones. D. He finally got his property back with diamonds. 【小题3】When the second farmer first found a shining stone, he ______. A. felt sorry for what he had done to the first farmer B. was excited to see he would soon be very rich
C. found it special and brought it home D. couldn’t wait to share his joy with his friends 【小题4】The visitor nearly passed out after a close look at the stone because _______. A. he was shocked by the misfortune of the first farmer B. the discovery was too good to be true C. it was not discovered on his own farm D. he was blinded by the light from the stone 【小题5】What do we learn from the story? A. Treasure a farm with a river running across it. B. Show your belongings to others to find their real value. C. Dig deep into what we have instead of wandering elsewhere.
D. Ask for professional advice before selling anything to others.

I was doing some Christmas shopping in a toy store and decided to look at Barbie dolls for my nieces. A nicely dressed little girl was excitedly looking through the Barbie dolls as well. As she was looking, a little boy came to the Pokemon toys. He was dressed neatly, but his clothes were obviously old. He was with his father as well, and kept picking up the Pokemon video toys. Each time he picked one up and looked at his father, his father shook his head and said, “No.”The little girl had chosen her Barbie. However, she stopped and was watching them. Rather dejectedly, the boy had to give up the Pokemon toys and choose something else. The little girl put her Barbie back on the shelf, and ran over to the Pokemon toys.
