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.

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...

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.

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.

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

The crowd can get bent for shouting stuff out.
Murray's knackered, let him be.
