This is the thing with Federer. He's probably the best tennis player ever to have walked the Earth and it shows. Just amazing stuff. I'm still gutted he lost Wimbledon this year.

I don;t know, I still hold out some hope. Federer is playing some fantastic stuff though

Great recovery from Federer, that blip a few games into the second looked worrying, but back to his very best there in that final game to break Murray's serve for the set.

There's no way Murray has the stamina to go another 3 sets.

Yeah and he has all that experience of being in a GS final.

True. A little annoyed that these American commentators are writing him off though...

Britain isn't playing. Scotland is.

shhh

Federer looks way too cool when he wins a point and just walks off with his head down. The man is just too good. Not quite the same as the Wimbeldon final this.

I think you'll find it's Andy Murray that's playing.

Murray not playing shots that hurts Federer like he played shots that hurt Nadal yesterday.

Yeah, that's what it looks like. I'm not taking anything away from Federer, he has been very good, but Murray looks like he spent a stupid amount of energy yesterday.

Still, whatever the result, this is a great experience for him.

It's got to be game over now. Murray hasn't got any more in the tank.

PostRe: Tennis Thread by **Stig** » Mon Sep 08, 2008 11:50 pm

Please Murray at least win one game this set!

PostRe: Tennis Thread by **TigaSefi** » Mon Sep 08, 2008 11:52 pm

Shame they couldn't afford the same break to Murray as Federer had and Federer knows this.

What's he running on? Petrol or Diesel?

The crowd can get bent for shouting stuff out.

Murray's knackered, let him be.
