Anyone watching Murray on centre court at the moment?

Great game. Murray's really getting a run for his money and I reckon the balance of play appeared to have swung back to Wawrinka after Murray came back well in sets two and three.
However, Murray is coming on strong again at just the right time.
And the floodlights are fantastic, it's hard to tell the difference from real daylight.

I have tomorrow (Fri) off as our July 4th Independence Day falls on Saturday. That means I get to watch the semi finals and I hope y'all don't mind if an American pulls for Murray over Roddick. But I will have to pull for Federer if he makes it to the final.

And you were doing so well up until the Federer comment!

I enjoyed Murray's game last year at this time. I haven't seen him since but looking forward to it tomorrow. Hope you are well, Jim

Hi Jefff
As a tennis fan, a Scotsman and a Brit I'm pulling for Andy but the pressure on him is enormous thanks to the UK press but he has a great temperament and has the talent to win this and other majors in the future.
I'm doing pretty well, still trying to adjust to life, business life in particular, on this side of the pond after so long away but getting there I guess.
Hope things are going well for you.
Cheers
Jim

Well done Roddick he played really well. Though Murray looked knackered in the 4th set, get to that gym boy.

Not really.
We host a great tennis tournamanet or two [including Queens] but history shows us that as a nation, since Perry at least, we do not come close to being competitive at the top level.
I could not listen to this on the radio, as the result was obvious before it started. Listening would have been masochistic.
I think we should stop entering Brits in wimbledon at all. It would be much more fun without the annual disappointment of seeing them crushed.

The boy did well, but Roddick was just better on the day. Some terrific tennis. He is young and will bounce back.

B****cks!

That's the best I have ever seen Roddick play; still as Tractor Boy I've grown used to nearly winning things. Andy Murray had a great tournament and there is still lots of time - everything about him has improved.

Can you describe to me logically how getting to world number 3, and the semi final of one of the four grand slam tournaments is 'being crushed'???

This should be #15 for Roger, but don't count Andy out just yet.
