      :smile: Great nail biting stuff as usual from Andy,I like it when he gives that poor me poor me look........
      It seems very tight this year.
      I can't see Murray ever, ever beating Djokovic on grass though.....forever hopeful though........Oh, and there is a small problem of that nice guy Tsonga.
      Fingers crossed...............

        I just wish he would close his mouth, and stop the clenched fist after every point.
        And also tell his Mum to do the same.

        It was a good game and he played well.

          Getting excited about today's match.

          Hope Federer wins today cos Murray's got more chance of beating him if he gets to the final (and it's by no means a bygone conclusion).

              Murray and Federer have met 15 times and Andy's won eight of those. Don't write him off yet.

              Unless you're a Federer fan :biggrin:

                Good luck to him and it would be great in this Olympic year for him to win it.
                He does seem to lack a little bit of charisma though! I cringed at his after match interview. Maybe he lacks a little bit of confidence in front of the TV cameras?....Federer on the other hand speaks excellent english, comes over well, and is a thoroughly nice guy.

                I think Murray has had the slightly easier draw.
                If he had met Federea or Djoky in the last round I just wonder if he would have reached the final.

                  They were talking about him on the Jeremy Vine programme and people were phoning in with their comments. Although they want him to win people don't "warm" to him, feel he has NO charisma. Bit like Tim Henman before him!!
