well someone has now!

Another post got deleted earlier. Seems that that's the only thing you and Zedhead have in common - a Win by Andy Murray at Wimbledon.

I agree with most of that. I'll hold my fire on calling Murray the new Jock-itch, but I suspect you are correct.

Murray is another Djokovic. A pretender. His game is too inconsistent to be properly warranted between fed and rafa.

This being said he is still better than the rest. Grass suits his style of play, but it is too much like Djokovic's and I see him playing too much from the baseline and possibly being picked off by cilic, del potro or roddick or maybe someone like tsonga or gonzalez if they are streaky enough in the quarters or semis. It depends on the draw.

I think on grass he sits on his heels a little and maybe not moving around so well. This being said, if he manages to control the rallies his touch game should see him reasonably easily well through to the quarters where he might find it a little tougher.

He is destined to meet Fed in the Semis, and I just don't think he will be able to do at centre court what he did at dubai (or was it dohar) earlier this year. But that I my view.

Federer is playing well, very fit and resurgent psychologically. With Rafa doubtful, and after picking up RG, he would be looking at retaking Wimbledon before defending the US again. He would feel this is his year.

My two cents - lol you did ask for it beary haha

Well, Murray looked under the weather today. Bending over and gasping for air with his mouth open. He didnt look well at all.

With regards to Wimblies on the other hand of course pressure can be used against you. There were such expectations put on Henman and I am sure Murray now... They so want a winner from their isles.... could go against him.

Will be a fantastic tourny as usual though aye?

He appears to be getting closer and closer to finals etc. But can a Home Crowd pull you through.

I ask you tennis players who benefit when you are being watched by family etc...
