Murray with the early break to go up 2-0(now it is 2-1).
2-2
I am trying to imagine what sort of pressure Murray must feel.
And correct me if I am wrong, but didn’t Lendl never win at Wimbledon?
You are correct. Final in 1986 and 1987, but never a win. He won every other one.
“Grass is for cows”. Thus spake Ivan Lendl.
Well, taking you at your word, Lendl did win at Wimbledon. He just never won the final.
With the Brits cheering every time Any hits the ball.:D, Roger needs nerves of steel.
What are the betting odds. Surely Federer is favourite?
Just looked it up. Federer at $1.40 and Murray at $2.75
4-4. Murray had more energy coming out, but Federer has gotten into his comfort zone and is playing more offense.
Remind me never to upset Mrs Murray. Never ever.
Will the English be cheering? He is Scottish after all.
And I see Rod Laver has said that Federer is the greatest of all time. A pretty good wrap.
And just like that Murray gets a break and serves out the set.
Shaping up to be a complete epic.
If you think this is cheering, wait 'til next month … really, this is a meek warm up compared to what’s coming.
Thanks Marley- I can’t get near the television so I have no idea what is happening. I appreciate the updates.
Well, I’m about 4 miles away and it’s just stared pouring down so fingers crossed …
You’re saying that rain is unusual in England?
Murray is having to work his ass off to win his service games and Federer has won his own last two with ease. It’s a little worrying. Hopefully the old guy will get tired before the end, heh.
EDIT: A nice 40-15 hold by Murray this time. Heart-attack delayed!
Federer saves two break points to go ahead 5-4 in the second set. Murray to serve to stay in.
5-4 federer.
Federer has played well but Murray has had an answer for almost everything so far. Federer needs to find a way to turn it up and steal this set, maybe with a quick
break here.
