Vika has beaten Sharapova, Radwanska, Stosur, Clijsters, Bartoli, Kerber, Li Na, it's only Serena that has held her back from winning Gold and Wimbledon and not to mention in Stutgart, no one is good enough to beat Serena on this form at the minute though

Thought i would share my thoughts on the final 2moz as i know quite a few of you would probs like it.
I have the match (51%-49%) in Murray's favor(If fed enters Goat mode of course Murray gets 3 bagels). Sadly i the marathon match will take it's toll on the GOAT'S 31 year old body. The windy weather will also be a major factor as we all know Fed is probs one of the worst players when the condtions get a bit rough
Either way Fed will push another younster in there out and out prime

how are you so cocky? you guys only got a roof like 3 years ago. geesh. Everyone has the same conditions so just deal with it. it doesn't handicap anyone. SPoiled athletes want everything their own way., sorry but SPORT is played in many different conditions. so don't complain just cause you don't have yur cushy court.

the only way Murray can win is if someone holds him down and makes Djokovich play for him.

Even if he does win though, he still won't have won a slam, so it will mean nothing. It will just be written off as olympic home field advantage.
Be the moment people will look back on though if he wins tomorrow and then goes his career without winning a grand slam

Just out of curiosity, is there anyone that has won olympic gold and then won the US Open right afterwards?? I mean someone that isn't already a slam winner.

Serena is the second best tennis player ever. Pete Sampras is the best tennis player ever.

Pete Sampras :shocked:
he was terrible on clay, and never won the french open..
I take it the mixed doubles will be after the singles final then?

Amazing first set, wish it was just a 3 setter
First set!! :amazed: Hope he can keep this up

Amazing first-set for him..
But I've seen Federer bounce back in the past.
Might have to watch Tennis a lot more, this is thrilling.

Why why why why can't it be best of 3
It needs to be best of 5 otherwise people will say he only won because it was best of 3 ok - he needs to prove himself in a 5 setter :)

I hope Andy gives Del Boy that Gold Medal let's be real like i said Fed LOOK EVERY SECOND of that match
Locke.

What is this I'm seeing
Roger throwing a match
Federer had a day off, Murray was out playing mixed doubles yesterday and has had to fit 3 games of that around his singles campaign
Legend killer
05-08-2012, 02:39 PM
LOL big wow he played a couple of hour long smash and giggle matches he worked no harder then he would in his usual knock around session
Don't want to hear anyway of spinning this Murray needs to hand that medal to Del Boy
He has got a lovely bronze medal of his own now anyway
Jayson
05-08-2012, 02:42 PM
One more set and he's done it
Federer had a day off, Murray was out playing mixed doubles yesterday and has had to fit 3 games of that around his singles campaign
What a fighter, true grit and determination
6 more games is all that is needed. Depending.

LOL the commentators are making out that Murray is just playing on some epic level when in fact he is playing worse then he did in the wimby final.
I hate to say this cause Murray seems like an ok guy but unless Fed makes this scoreline a bit more competitive this win will forever be tainted and even feels tainted. Let's face it from the start Fed has looked EVERY SECOND THAT DEL BOY MATCH
DEL POTRO 2012 OLYMPIC GOLD MEDAL WINNER
