Andy Vs Roger

Yep - Fed well below his best, but Murray playing very well. He could well do it.............!!
 
To be honest Murray has played fantastic, Federer just nabbed him in that last game to take the 2nd set. At least it's all square now they've had to delay.... no real momentum lost for either.

Fair appraisal of the current situation...

Unfortunately they are now shutting the roof... Seemingly all the pundits believe this favours RF... Hopefully they're wrong...
 
4th best player comes second, so I suppose it's news. He'll never win a Slam, top two players out this time and then he's beaten by a gy 3 years past his best.

Good effort but he's not good enough and never will be

So, Feds won. 7 times champion. Fantastic.

Murray is pretty emotional, tough time to have to speak to camera.

Tough to watch. And two fingers to those who say he never shows any emotion.

Federer at his best is better than Djokovic, Nadal and all the others and he had to play his absolute best to dispatch Murray today.

He will win at least one slam.
 
Really wanted Roger to win as I love him :)

Tears in my eyes for Andy though and so good to see him show some emotion. Hope his day will come but still delighted it wasn't today.

Roger is class and has the heart and spirit of a champion - something Andy needs to look at and learn from as he has the game to win a slam for sure.

Bull for two reasons. Firstly Roger himself who is "past his best" was the one who beat the then world no 1.

Secondly, Roger is now the world no 1!

Murray is a little way behind the top 3. Not much.... he pushed Fed all the way today. He has beaten Rafa in grand slams before.

He will be at the top for another 5 or 6 years and he is too good not to win at least one in that time.

What a ridiculous statement when Federer has just went back to No. 1 in the world and just in case you didnt know he also happened to beat Djokovic in the semi-final.

Can we take it then that you dont rate Djokovic either?
 
QUOTE=colint;615732]Yep, is that his 4th final ? Never close in any of them. the best 3 are just too good for him, fact[/QUOTE]

You are very forhtright in your views about the future, congratulations....

Here are some more facts, Murray has 22 Career titles, $20m in winnings (10th all time Highest), 4 slam finals (in 3 different salms), represents a nation that has underperformed in his chosen sport for decades which brings immense pressure. He is easily capable of improving at hs age.

:cheers:

Not a real tennis fan, but I have got extra admiration for Murray. Good to see he really cares and I think this will help him get that extra 5% he needs to mentally win a slam.

As for the comment that Federer is 3yrs past his prime...:rolleyes:
