New Balls, Please

[maaarsh]

Konta in a right state

 

Symptoms all seem to be hyperventilation and panic attack, not very pleasant

[Casino]

Got some balls has that girl

[MalcolmW]

I was thinking collapsed lung, but don't think she could have come back to win, even playing at half pace.

[Exiled Girl]

Same as Jack Sock last year.

[Casino]

Edmund is doing a bit of a job on Mr One Dimensional

 

Hope he can keep it going

[Exiled Girl]

All going well for an all British men's final still... Going to be torn tonight though when Evans plays Stan. Evans still in the doubles, playing with Kyrgios.

[Casino]

Really don't get what you see in the arrogant Czech/Swiss

 

Come on

[Exiled Girl]

That backhand tbh.

 

And Evans should have won it too. Hope his foot recovers quickly.

well, your man won it

 

fantastic contest

 

evans up about 700 places in less than 2 years, i think?

He was 333 a year ago, been injured so dropped right down. Something that has caused him to get his head down & graft instead of hitting the nightclubs (as well as growing up a bit) has been the time that Andy Murray has given to him, and other British players.

if only murray smiled at folk in lifts and had a sense of humour, eh?

[Exiled Girl]

I've been watching Evans a lot on Livestream this year, his confidence is way up and he doesn't let a dropped serve, or set, bother him - he just gets on with it.

And didn't hate the English...

[Casino]

oh aye, that one

 

whats the name of that jock he married?

[Exiled Girl]

He was claimed down here as Oxshott's Murray when he won Olympic gold. Born & bred Surrey lad.

Does 8 Majors Ivan have higher expectations than our Andy?

"After match point Lendl stormed out of the stadium and that tells its own story" Jeff Tarango

"If someone had offered me the summer that I have had before Wimbledon, I probably would have signed for that," said Murray.

Beat by a Jap last night. Makes him Scottish again!

His brother is in the Doubles semi, though.

[Farrelli]

Overall a very good season by Murray. The only consolation in his defeat to Nishikori is that Djokovic is nailed on for this after only completing about six sets to get to the semis.

He stormed out after Murray won Wimbledon too.

 

Not his best match ever & not his best on-court behaviour either.

 

This Monfils semi has just started to get interesting. Giving Djokovic a 2 set start isn't usually a good plan.

[Exiled Girl]

Really don't get what you see in the arrogant Czech/Swiss

 

Come on

Didn't see any arrogance in his winners speech tonight

[jayjayoghani]

Their head to head is still 19-5 in Djokovic's favour but Wawrinka does have some notable wins over him at slams.

[Traf]

I watched wheelchair tennis at the Paralympics last night.

 

Unbelievable stuff.

[jturner]

I see Stan Wawrinka has joined Andy Murray on 3 Grand Slam wins, although Murray has lost 8 Grand Slam finals compared to Wawrinka's 0.

 

 

 

 

[Farrelli]

And your point is? Murray has reached eight more finals and is higher ranked.

There is no disgrace in losing to Federer or Djokovic in slam finals, two of the all time greats.

Dan Evans had a match point to take Wawrinka out in round 4....small margins in sport.
