Yeah, credit to the other guy though. Cheering Murray scoring is fair enough, bit I do think cheering when Wawrinka would make a fault was a bit unsporting though.

Re: Wimbledon 2009
I just can't believe that match... At the beginning of the 5th set I didn't really care who won as it was the best match I've ever seen!!!
Well done Murray and a big cheer for Wawrinka for such amazing play

Anyone else think that having the roof closed really upset Murray's service game??

Must be hard to play in that enviroment.

That's the Wimbledon crowd for you. It's always like that when a Brit plays.
Good match though

It shouldn't have done, if anything it should have helped it because there would have been no wind. He needs to improve his serve if wants to go all the way, his serving was really bad tonight.
Brilliant match though, great fighting spirit from Murray.

Well he's had a right moan about the roof and the fact that he hadn;t played on indoor grass conditions before

Re: Wimbledon 2009
what a plum
He should have kept that QT till after the tournament as he has exposed a weakness that any opponent he faces in these conditions could capitalize on

"It slowed it down a lot and I struggled to serve because it wasn't coming off the strings that quickly. There were a lot more rallies and I got a lot less free points off my serve when it did go in.

Re: Wimbledon 2009
There's always a convinient excuse up his sleeve. This why I don't generally support him, even Scots have come in the shop this morning and said they can't stand him.

Re: Wimbledon 2009
When he loses I mean. Presently - Whinging. He'll be all tired now, and won't win the next match - probably be a walk-over.

Bring back Henman. It was a lot less stressful watching him
