Man I hate both of these guys. So much whining from both sides. But it is high quality tennis, nonetheless.
I don't think Federer is quite done yet...one more Wimbledon championship before he calls it quits.
competition on the tour now. The depth is impressive so for an older player who has played on tour for a long time. Del Potro, Berdych and up and coming guys like Janowicz its going to be hard to 'recover' after tough matches for an older tour player. Even Djokovic looks tired from his match with Del Po. Chris Evert came up with a great observation..when you get older sometimes the body just doesn't work right on a given day.
Go Murray! Djokovic is not looking comfortable out there with his tweaked wrist.
How can anyone not be rooting for Andy Murray right now except for Djokovic's mom? No Englishman has won Wimbledon in 77 years, for crying out loud! It's time for the home team to get one.
Point of pedantry: Murray isn't an Englishman either. But he is a Brit.
Spot on. As a son of a Scottish mother (Glaswegian) and an English father (born in Wimbledon, actually) you don't want to call a Scot an Englishman. However, a lot of Scots are coming around to being called British (mostly the younger generation) but it's still a touchy issue.
The original Acts of Union were passed over 300 years ago. I can see how a Scot could be miffed by being referred to as an "Englishman", but the English, Scots, and Welsh have all been "British" for a long time now.
As a son of Welsh mother I find this hard to understand and honestly in all my interactions with Scots have not found it to be the case. Wales, like Scotland has many reasons for hating the English and would be very upset to be called "English" but are fine with (and even many times refer to themselves ) as British (to save people from asking "where's Wales). I haven't found Scots to be different in my interactions with them.
Can we agree on that?
right on cue novak is throwing a hissy fit
he blew away all his challenges so all he can do is bitch and moan
Murary had a death grip on this thing. Up 2 sets and a break, and he's gacked up 4 straight games.
Bueller...Bueller
Novak punted the shit out of his water bottle. LoL
This game has been fabulous
The wait is over.
God save the Queen
For a match what was won in straight sets, that was about as fabulous a championship as I can remember seeing.
