not a great tennis fan and don't particularly like Murray, but credit where it is due, this is a great achievement and with Federer the "weakest" of the three players above him in the World Top 4 I doubt he'll ever get a better opportunity.

Federer might be 'on paper' the weakest of the top three, but he is by far the best player on grass, it will be a phenomenal achievement for Murray to win.
Oh, and I've never got this hatred towards Murray. Why? Yes he's a 'dour Scot' and he once jokingly said that he would support anyone but England in some football game, but he is supremely talented and possibly about to make history.
I hope he comprehensively stuffs Federer.

Come on Federererer.Really do not like Murray and couldn't give two shits where he is from.He seems to me to be a good tennis player but every interview I have seen he has given I want to punch him in his face.

The commentator on the Beeb said at the start of the next game "Murray to serve, but no new balls" which amused McEnroe.

Yep, I want Fed to win as well.

The nationality of a player (or a team for that matter) is irrelevant to me in deciding whether I want them to win.

C'mon you Scottish, Paraguay shirt wearing-British twat. Federer has won enough.

[Dave Cooper please]

Fuck all you cynics, come on Andy.

[rutski]

Fuck all you cynics, come on Andy.

i am with you plum! i want every team in the world to beat scotland at football but i remember alan wells running for britain and wanting him to win.

The Paraguay shirt thing never happened. The story was made up by the Sun and has since been taken down.

The story came from a throwaway comment in response to a journo jokingly asking him 'So Andy are you going to be supporting Scotland in the World Cup [2006]?'. He responded 'Anyone but England ha-ha'.

Come on Andy!

[cdbearsfan]

Come on Murray and Marray!

[TheSandman]

Fuck all you cynics, come on Andy.

Hear hear.

He's still going to lose mind but I'm supporting him all the way.

Well done to the lovely Serena. Xxxxxxx

can't wait until the williams sisters retire, 2 very average players who've dominated the womens game purely by being bigger and stronger than the rest (and using that to create an service game that is unplayable at its best).  I can't fault them, they're very good at what they do, but it's not very interesting to watch.  The mens game went through a phase of being dominated by those players until federer came along, and it was very very dull because of it.
