Andy’s latest escape attempt ends with another injection—but not before he discovers that it is 1 August and remembers a tournament he believes he must defend at Flushing Meadows. As he slips unconscious, a drone scans his body, escapes into the corridor and becomes embroiled in a wonderfully petty argument about whether it was born in a barn.

The Fantastic Confabulations of an Ageing Tennis Player
Inspired by Rip Van Winkle, the short story by Washington Irving, The Fantastic Confabulations of an Ageing Tennis Player is the fourth and final book in this ‘Confessions’ series. Andy Murray wakes up twelve years late, trapped in a hospice that feels more like a prison, with his memory missing, his bar bill unpaid, and the US Open still somehow to be won. A darkly comic, surreal finale to the cult Confessions of an Ageing Tennis Player series.
Have a great US Open!
