Alright calm down.

That was probably his second best french open campaign behind 2008. You could argue that this was due to his age and how he has been the last few years. But I'd give it to 2008 for the way he beat Federer at his peak in the final.

He's overtaken Sampras too, which is a brilliant achievement.

It's the third time he's won RG without dropping a set, after 2008 & 2010. It presages great things, I hope...

So what you're saying is, I need a new catchphrase?

AC Milan legend Paolo Maldini will make his professional tennis debut at an ATP Challenger Tour event in Milan later this month.

What?! He's playing doubles.

Good start to Queens and build up to Wimbledon for Murray

Goodness knows what's wrong with him. Needs to up his game.

[PES Fan]

There has to be some sort of motivational issue.

Losing to Wawrinka is fair enough. But the other losses he has had this year have been embarrassing. Losing to journeymen and today a lucky loser. I'd let him off against Fognini in Rome but he did get trounced that game.

Doesn't seem to be any energy in his play. The serve has been awful this year. I know he's had a few injuries but those were months ago. The same question can be asked about Djokovic.

He's gonna go down as one of the worst number ones ever.

Pat Rafter was number one for exactly one week

[Denster]

Murray.

[Snowcannon]

Federer, Wawrinka, Raonic out early too

[Tineash]

Federer

Why you teasing me like that? He's still in Halle

[Tineash]

Wimbledon time!

My guaranteed wrong-every-time prediction

Federer def. Cilic in the final.

[DML]

My predictions -

Final 4 in the Mens

Verdasco
Nadal
Federer
Thiem

Final 4 in the Womens

Muguruza
K. Pliskova
Keys
Konta

Federer and Muguruza to take the title.

[Tineash]

Verdasco & Thiem? Interesting.

[Drumstick]

Predicting the women's draw is impossible due to how erratic they are. But I'll have a go, though I haven't bothered checking the draw to see if this is actually possible

Kvitova, Konta, Pliskova and any player ranked outside the top 40.

[Cuttooth]

Men's:

Murray
Nishikori
Federer
Djokovic

Women's:

Radwanska
Pliskova
Venus Williams
Kvitova

Laura needs to retire. Watson needs to learn to close the strawberry floating match out!!

Good to see Konta's fine
