Wimbledon LD

Im upset Rafa is out too. Made Wimbledon so boring for me bc I really don't want Djokovic to win, but he's going to cakewalk his way to the title now.

What's that you said about Djokovic? Looks to be an interesting final, the local boy with the hopes of a nation on his shoulders, versus the best of all time, unquestionably.

Murray's the only active player who has a positive head to head v Federer at 8-7.

And in another 48 hours or so, they'll be deadlocked at 8.

 

[Lee]

Of course he will, Murray always chokes in a match and you can't choke v Federer.

 

[Lee]

YES! YES! YES!

Murray/Federer final. Should be epic. Lol at Lendl.

 

[Fizzy]

If Federer plays like he did today against Murray, Andy doesn't stand a chance. Federer played some of the greatest tennis i've ever seen today and I don't see him losing come Sunday.

 

[Lee]

If Murray plays like he did during the second set, I can say the same.

 

[Loveless]

I'm still in shock that he didn't choke today, I was certain he would.

 

[Lee]

I was too, especially after watching the third set.

Federer was good today, very good but the fanboyism should stop there because Djokovic was terrible. Murrays' first two sets were as good as I've ever seen but Tsonga didn't show until the third set. Murrays' got a stunning record against Federer, partly because his defence is so good.

There's no favourite and it should be a great match. Murray will probably choke though.

If Murray wins against Federer he'll be an English hero, but if he "chokes" he'll be a Scottish bum.

I don't see either man choking. It'll be a close, back-and-forth battle in one of the most compelling and exciting Wimbledon Finals ever. I think Murray takes it. It just feels like his year. Though, at the same time, it felt like Roddick's year in 2009 and we saw what happen then against Federer in the Finals, so you never know...

 

[Lee]

Yeah Federer almost choked earlier on in the tournament, Murray almost choked today. Guess we'll see come Sunday.

 

[Johnny Scumm]

And that's one British winner of Wimbledon this year.

Marray/Nielsen have just taken the Men's Doubles Titles. They've beaten last years Champions, the previous 2 years Runners-Up & now they've taken the win in the final.

Brilliant match.

 

[Lee]

It was a great match.

 

[Lee]

Murray's already 2 games up.

 

[a0161613]

That was a stunning start but Federer's got back well.

 

[Steamboat Ricky]

This is huge. I wish I didn't have to go to work in a few minutes. Numbers...what's it like across the pond?

 

[Steamboat Ricky]

Dammit Andy. That was such lazy form on the backhand.

 

[Steamboat Ricky]

Shit, that was a great serve.

 

[Lee]

FUCK HE GOT A SET

 

[Steamboat Ricky]

Lee, tell us American folk what it's like over there. I don't think ESPN is really capturing how big of a deal this is for British folk.

 

[Steamboat Ricky]

FUCK HE GOT A SET

The question now is can Murray keep up the pace? Does he have the composure? I can just see Roger saying "fuck you bra" and just biting his head off. That's what he's done his whole career.

 

[Steamboat Ricky]

Andy seems a bit nervous here. He's making poor decisions. Play smart tennis! Not sure why you are doing an approach shot cross-court to Roger's backhand when he's standing on that side of the court. Down.the.line.approach.shots.

Lee, tell us American folk what it's like over there. I don't think ESPN is really capturing how big of a deal this is for British folk.

Most people I know are watching it, it's a bigger deal in London and in Scotland than in my town.
