Can he do it? If Murray wins the open he will be the first British man to win a major singles competition since Fred Perry won at Wimbledon in 1936.

Six million Britons are expected to watch the match tomorrow when he will play his Serbian friend Novak Djokovic.

Exciting stuff.

He's such a trier. I really feel for him - but plenty of good playing years left in him yet.

Great match tonight. I think he will definately make the semis but may well get his ass kicked in the finals.

He's just a babe, plenty of years to get there. :)

I have to confess, I find Murray's moods and bubbing a bit off putting. It's got to be bad when John McEnroe says he has to cut down the temper tantrums if he ever hopes to win. :lol:

Great final today and very impressive win by Novak Djokovic.

Did he mention his broken toe?


While we're on tennis. Does anyone else think Boris Becker not only looks like a young Denis Law but has many of Law's mannerisms?
