It was a great final to watch, albeit we didn't get the winner we wanted. Still Andy has a fair few years ahead of him and judging by todays performance he could well do it in the future.

Losing to Roger Federa is absolutely nothing to be ashamed of - he's a stunning player.  I did watch a little bit - 10 x deuce  ::)  - and Federa had Murray running to the furthest corners, to wear him out.  Good tactic, shame for Andy  :(
So to play the final is an amazing achievement for our 'wee' Scotsman - all 6'3" of him - and he did so well.  Next year Andy  :trophy: :trophy: :trophy: :thumbsup:    Now I'll have to watch the whole thing somewhere without the terror of not knowing the outcome  ::) ::)

I agree, no shame in beng beaten by Roger. And Andy won the first set which was amazing. It really was a match not just a serve and volley walkover. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and appreciated the rain break so I could get my baby donkey in.

I listened to the first set tie break on the radio before I went to sleep.  It sounded a great match.
Well done Andy  :trophy: Lets hope its the first gland slam of many

Brilliant result for him!
Andy Murray brought the first major men's title back to Britain since 1936, defeating the defending champion 7-6, 7-5, 2-6, 3-6, 6-2. becoming the first man to bring a Grand Slam trophy to Britain since Fred Perry.

My only claim to tennis fame was that when I was dating a tennis enthusiast I bought a Fred Perry tennis Dress! :innocent:

Uh, so our first two Charollais tups were Perry and then Fred.  Next two better be Murray and then Andy, I guess!  Well done that man.  :thumbsup:

Love the pics of Finn watching, omni.  Finn's a Sheba Inu?
