While I was working at starbucks yesterday this tall white guy walks in with a Super Bowl jacket and orders a soy chai... we had a little conversation and he was telling me how he just got back from the super bowl and he showed me some pics from it in his blackberry then I asked him if he was a former athlete... I don't have the Tennis Channel so I didn't know that Luke Jensen had a brother. Murphy is a super cool guy and he's gonna get me in to see Roddick and Blake play sometime this week. Only at Starbucks would I meet someone famous like that and get the oppurtunity to see big time players play live.
I met Murphy Jensen yesterday

they both are so strange its funny. i saw one of them hit an ace lefty so the guy he was playing challenged him to hit it righty and he got aced again. nasty serves of both sides. and ya they were much more entertaining then the bryans .
I was 8 years old in 1993 and not really exposed to tennis... I didn't pick up my first racquet till 94 lol

Good one! They are forever reminding people about it. Murphy also likes to remind people he beat Wilander twice on clay. Probably feels a little proud being an American and winning on clay, something that the newer crowd is not able to do.

It gets even better, Murphy has/had a business card with his info on it, and under his name, it had French Open Champion.

Last summer I played on a court next to Murphy Jensen. He was rallying/practicing with the lead singer from Bush, who was very competent himself. I was impressed to see both playing at an average parks court with the rest of us Grabowski's.

I saw them at an exo a couple years ago. PLayed dubs against Roddick and Fish, I think. One of them (the shorter one), wore a football helmet the whole time. They're a lot of fun. I hope they stick around the sport a long time.
