    Watched the final set at the pub where I was told a close friend had just had a heart attack on the 18th hole :( It sounded so clichéd I didn't know what to say but it took the shine off the tennis for me a bit.
    (He is, thankfully, OK and being taken care of at Frimley Park.)

    Oh yes, well done Murray. :sad:

    All the news is that he'll be OK thanks. Facebook is apparently awash with the news lol

    The Robson game is not going well I fear...

    Is the Robson game the doubles one?

    Just pulled it back to 1-1 so last set is the decider. She's looking better this set :)

    It's on bbc1
