Did I just see Murray smile?

TSONGA for the final.

Yea, I hate Murray. Though, going into Wimbledon, all four have a relatively equal shot at winning

There is no way Murray has an equal chance of winning Wimbledon, he has a history of bottling it. He's rightfully 8.2 versus around 4 for the other three.

I reckon Djo will take it.

A least he's better than Tim Henman.

For a start, Murray's odds are around $6.50. I think all the top 4 have a reasonable chance in Wimbledon. Actually, Djokovic maybe less chance than the others in my eyes, as he doesn't usually go too well on grass. Murray fans hoping to play Djokovic in the semi-finals, rather than Nadal. Nadal is rightly favourite for the tournament.

Grass has never really been Murray's favorite surface, but his massive improvement on clay this year gives some hope that he might be improving on surfaces other than hard courts. The way he played to demolish Roddick the other day was very impressive, even though it is just a warm-up tournament.

I don't know what you mean by Murray having a supposed history of "bottling it". Please point out when.

It usually occurs on the second Thursday of every Major tournament.

erakovic into the 2nd round 

Wimbledon on:

Just like to share my dislike for a certain Aussie

Hoping Soderling steps up his game...

Oh wow, stayed up for this... but worth it. Maybe as a grown man he will learn to wear a hat.

He does

Tsonga!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Great match that one.

Murray vs Gasquet at midnight tonight. Interesting match. Gasquet has been looking pretty good this year. In their previous two grand slam matches against each other, Murray has come back from two sets behind to win. One I'm sure the anti-Murray brigade will be keen to keep an eye on!Colvinator2011-06-27 18:02:40

I hope Gasquet tears him apart.

As do I, but I'm not sure it'll happen. Though Murray has the highest chance of losing of top 4

So hot today here in London, supposed to tip 32 with no breeze to speak of. Playing tennis in this heat must be ridiculous.

Murray ripped him to shreds. Murray hit 43 winners, with only 9 unforced errors, which was impressive. He's basically through to the semi-finals now where he'll meet Nadal, if Nadal can overcome a couple of tricky matches ahead.

Women's draw even more wide open. Woz gone. Serena gone. Venus about to go. Madness.

hmm, all the ones complaining about not being on centre court.

How I wish I was at Wimbledon already. Tsonga-Fed is a classic. Arsenal2011-06-30 02:56:49

And Djo disposes of the annoying Aussie.

Good day so far...

TSONGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

MURRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY

Nadal in 3.

will be tough, could go to five if they are both carrying injuries.

Come on Erakovic in the doubles.

Tsonga back in it, what a tie break that was.

Buffy, love the Federer/Nadal clip. Would love to know what made them laugh.

Probably Federer farted audibly.

Murray bottling it in a major semi again.

Tedious prat.

He's that too.

Yay Djokovic!! awesome.
