you not supporting Murray, i have my fingers crossed that he beats Tsonga. Will be tough, but he played a blinder against Ferrer.

Who do you fancy to win then bibblebub? - em I just cannot warm to Murray I agree he is a terrific player and yes that was a blinder against Ferrer, he played the tennis we know he is capable of - I know all four are great tennis players just think Tsonga has the edge, but yes it would be fantastic for the UK if Murray were crowned king of Wimbledon.
|
|
if he beats Tsonga, i don't think on current form he can beat either Federer or Djokovic.

You know em anything can happen on court if the players have a bit of an off day - an argument with the wife or girlfriend the night before - this is why I said on another thread at this stage of the game they have to play at best and can go the five sets. While we are talking tennis, how do you rate Serena for the title - I do - she is fantastic and might also do the doubles with Venus.
|
|
I reckon that Murray will beat Tsonga but will struggle against either of the other 2 - that doesn't discount him winning against either of them.

Serena good bet, but one thing that comes to mind, and it's in no way a criticism is that on very few occasions do the men play doubles, those that play at the top level like Murray, Nadal. There was an interesting piece in the paper about it, considering the inequities in the game between men who play 5 sets and women who play three, regarding prize money. The writer certainly had a point, that the women can play three sets, say win in an hour, and be fresh enough to play doubles. Whilst the men who play 5 really couldn't. Looking at it like that it does seem a little unfair. Just a thought, hope Murray wins.

Quite agree em, of course women should be paid the same as men, I think Serena played two matches and completed another over one or two days - I remember Murray used to play doubles with his brother but as you said the top seeded men do not play doubles anymore (wonder if they will in the olympics)

It says a lot about British tennis that the newspapers are pooing themselves that Andy makes the final. 74 years since the last mens finalist and millions of millions spent for nothing.
|
|
im rooting for murray. but he has a very difficult game today againt tsonga , who is in great form.
|
|
I would love Federer to win one last Wimbledon but I just cannot see past Djokovic for the title. The Murray v Tsonga winner? I'd sooner toss a coin than put my neck on the line with that one.
|
|
Rooting for Murray as usual. Just needs to stay focussed.
|
|
Personally, and I'm not entirely sure why, but I cannot stand Federer. Nor Williams.
I just hope Murray is not listening to Radio 5 and becoming unsettled by the ludicrous hype.
For what it is worth I would predict Djokovic to beat Murray in one final and Williams to beat Radwanska in the other, though I sincerely hope it's the other way round in both.
|
|
the winner of Djokovic v Federer will go on to win the Championship imo

Me to duncer, I would love Federer to win and become No.1 again - we will see. It is strange Ichkeria that we have our likes and dislikes although we do not know them personally - I think my not warming to Murray is his whole persona especially his sulky attitude although since Lindle has been on the scene he has improved.
