No!

I can't see him beating Federer over the best of five sets on grass.

I have to agree, David, Federer is probably the Greatest. Unfortunately for Murray he seems to have peaked too soon (while Federer is still in the game) and next year Nadal will be back so this 'window of opportunity' may not be available to him after all.

Will we ever have a British Champ? Hmm.......maybe a female one?

I see Federer has cruised into the next round, looking forward to see how Murry gets on tomorrow. Sorry to see the little British girl go out today.
Del Potro (think thats how you spell it) could also be in with a chance.. but Federer looked good today...

Margaret and Angela

Andy also has Del Potro and Gonzalez in his half of the draw...both having beaten him recently, so not as easy as it looks!

A Federer v Murray final would be great...Roger to beat Sampras' record number of Grand Slams and Andy to be the first British player to win Wimbledon in over 70 years! Looks very exciting this year!

Good morning David,
Have you seen todays order of play? Murry is on 3rd, centre court, I shall have my front row seat (in from of my tv!!).
Enjoy the tennis this afternoon, I'm only working mornings for the next two weeks so I can get back and settle down.
I use to love watching Conners years ago, some of his five setters... just where did he find his energy, ahh good days.
Right must get moving.
Have a good day,
Angela

Morning Keith,
Wow!! it was a game... thats the kind of final you like. I thought Roddick did very well to keep with him, really it was just that mistake in the final set, I would like to see a tie breaker in the final set as well as the others, I know its more exciting but as Fed was serving first he only had to break his serve, Roddick would have had to break his serve then play another game to win... ah well thats it for another year. Yes there is always the Tour De France. In fact our tele on shows sport!!
Enjoy, speak soon.
Angela
