Needs to retire because he might lose a wimbledon final after beating Novak Djokovic?

Nice. Over 3.5 sets to me was the only decent bet for this one where you wouldn't be sweating balls to the end.

MUHerd37 · 07-08-12, 10:15 AM

Play halted for rain. Color me shocked.

Demonata · 07-08-12, 10:24 AM

Wish I would of bet the over. Odds of Murray getting destroyed by Fed were not good in my opinion. I went with Murray though.

beefcake · 07-08-12, 10:25 AM

Took murray at 14-1 to win this dam thing for small potatoes..Did not fukk around and took Fed when murray won the first set.No sweating now!

Good thinking. Wish I played futures.

EaglesPhan36 · 07-08-12, 12:17 PM

If there is any question, Fed still gives a shit about the game. Great win for a great Champion. Lovely tournament. Murray played well, Roger played better.

yisman · 07-08-12, 12:20 PM

Did very well but always hoping for more. Lost with Andy over double faults (he only had 1???????) and with the under minutes in the match, although I blame that on EP.

Won the over aces for Federer, over combined, over 3.5 sets, and Federer -4.5

EaglesPhan36 · 07-08-12, 12:27 PM

That one game dude, it was literally the reason the match went over that # ... made books look smart.

yisman · 07-08-12, 12:29 PM

Which game?

Demonata · 07-08-12, 12:29 PM

Novak wins australian. Nadal wins french, Fed wins Wimbledon. Murray wins US open?

shari91 · 07-08-12, 12:31 PM

Andy's interview just won me over for life. Bawled my ass off. Have spent so much money on this fukker when he was Mr PlayStation. Just need him to stay strong mentally and get his first serve in. If he can do that, he'll get his Slam.

Optional · 07-08-12, 12:35 PM

It was hard not to feel for him there.

The draw will be interesting. If Fed is still No. 1, I guess he'd be on course for a semifinal meeting with Nadal? Djokovic vs. Murray would be the other potential semi?

Still a ways to go before we figure that out, though.

yisman · 07-08-12, 12:38 PM

I see Fed agrees with me, that Murray will win his Grand Slam eventually.

After Del Potro gets another one.

yisman · 07-08-12, 12:46 PM

it's not just for the bet with you, it's because I've been saying it since last year and most of the tennis forum disagreed.

Was that not seriously one of the most emotional iv's we've seen in tennis for years? Kid is finally growing up and realising that not everyone 'goes to work' and then comes home, plays FIFA 2099999999 and smokes a bowl. I think he's finally sorted himself out this year - the Aggie Radwanska of the ATP. No more head games, no more being lazy or trying to cruise on sheer talent. Andy didn't fail anyone today. He got beaten by one of the greatest to ever play the sport. No shame in that. But just like Sampras retired which allowed Fed to excel a little bit easier, Fed will retire to let Andy win a Slam. Even with Nadal and Djoko around, I do believe Andy can do it and I bet you almost every tennis fan will be cheering him on.

Yep, he played hard this tournament and deserves respect. Even won a set off Fed.

Class act by Murray.

I have so much respect for him now because it seems like he finally gets it. It's not enough to be born with superior talent... use it!! Look at a guy like Ferrer. Guy use to be a brick layer. Same height as me, was never a tennis junkie and worked his way to where he is. Murray was born with all the gifts and took them for granted. He isn't any more. EP and I have been saying all year... different guy, head's getting better, not choking like he used to. I didn't see Murray choke today. I saw him get beat by one of the best ever and for that I can say OK. But Andy will def will win a Slam if he wants to. Showed more heart today then any of the 30 times I've pissed money away on him before

I think he's always been that kid, just never really showed it until today.

... yisman, that one 26 point game in the 3rd that Roger eventually broke on. Not sure how long the actually game went, but it probably cost 7-8 minutes or more. Thought the pace would have been a little quicker overall, but whatever!

Ok, Shari, very good speech this one. We'll see what Murray can do in future,but you better tell when are you going to count those points for both contests and dont forget to re-count womens side where Azarenka backers got some bonus points even after she got dismissed by Serena.

Yeah but how sporadic was it? Couldn't lay the chalk on him and it was horrible to even guess if he'd try in tourneys.

I really think now he's sorted it out. Not only does he have this physical gift but he owes it to those who hope for him (not bet on him obv). This is the first time I can recall, maybe you've seen it the past month when i've been awol, where he's actually looked grateful for the support. He won himself a lot of fans today. Like I said earlier my Italian 80yo neigbour was cheering for him on one side and the other 20 somethings on the other side were yelling "come on" when he hit shots in. Normally Aussies vs Brits is a no go. I think Andy is going to do very well now. He may have lost but I think he's finally let it all out and become a man (yes I know that sounds cheesy) but he needed to ditch his Mummy Act. I think he has now.
