Tennis Thread - That's an Ace

if only we could all forget about andrew fucking castle.

the ultimate tennis jobber.

how the fuck did he get to be on tv?

seems to think of himself as an expert.

didnt he used to host GMTV? what the fuck.

i cannot recall one decent match he played, also wore those ludicrous long socks.

He took Wilander to a deciding set FFS!!!!
(Please ignore the fact that Wilander was shit on grass)

if i had gone to five sets and he had won there would still be the issue of the socks.

robsons run is over, but signs of real promise.

another two months out the game...................

[Monkety Tonkety]

Enough time to get doped to the eyeballs, and win his first tournament back

[Randall]

hmm, murray into the semi final, where he plays berdych who knocked federer out.

huge chance now surely.

[Randall]

looks like its going to be djokovic in the final if murray makes it.

[Monkety Tonkety]

Can't see Djokovic losing to Ferrer. I'd rate Ferrer highly, in the next group with Berdych, Del Potro, Tsonga, Wawrinka and Soderling. But that's not enough to beat Djokovic.

I wouldn't take Berdych lightly though. He has now beaten Federer twice in major tournaments. Two days ago, and also at Wimbledon in 2010, where he took Federer out in the quarters, Djokovic out in the semis before succumbing to Nadal in the final.

Only has 7 career titles though, which is surprising. Murray has 23. But Berdych holds a 4-2 H2H lead against Andy and defeated him in their only previous Grand Slam encounter, although that was in Paris so you can't take too much from that.

Will say Murray in 5.

[Randall]

ferrer is the modern day jimmy connors, great heart, shown yesterday battling back from 1-4 in the 5th set, still fancy djokovic.

i fancy murray to win in 3 or 4 against berdych. if he is going to win a slam, fresh from the olympic win and with no nadal in his path this is it.

[Randall]

womens event has been a total waste of time.

final williams v azarenka will be lucky to last an hour.

shite.

[gazman]

What time is Murray's match on today?

[Randall]

he is on first so im guessing somewhere around 9.30pm.

[Randall]

my bad gaz, murray is on now!

[hang the dj]

Murray loses 1st set

[Randall]

1-1 now

[Randall]

murray a break up in the 3rd now.

[Randall]

looked to be coasting home but just lost his serve in the 4th.

not a major problem the way he is playing im sure.

[martin71109]

How's the fella doing now?

[Randall]

2-1 and 6-5 on serve in the 4th.

[Randall]

murray wins in 4.

5th grand slam final.
