Rafa is just such a nice guy, being lovely about Murray in his post match interview as well.

Fact.
Yeah, that's why Rafa calls Murray one of the greats of the game and that he'll definitely win a slam.

Rafa is an extraordinary sportsman... superman basically. He's in a different league to everyone when it concerns the big points.... and that's all that was in it.

Certain players can't treat losing and winning the same way. Rafa can. That's the difference and that's why he's the greatest tennis player in the world.

I want him to win because it'll bring him one slam closer to Federer's record.

So, I'm sure Andy Murray will turn back into a Scotsman in tomorrow's headlines.

So happy for Rafa, he so deserves to be both #1 and champion at Wimbledon again! Fantastic performance and I loved the Rafa roll he did

Vamos!

I'm happy with this year's champions - both building on their already legendary legacies. Great run both the finalists too - both are too talented to have never reached a Major final, Berdych in particular. And who knows, maybe there will be many more to come his way. For Zvonareva I think it'll remain the pinnacle of her career, but what a nice career she's putting together.

Wouldn;t at all be surprised if we see the two Wimbledon champions being crowned USO champions in a couple of months either. Much more of a task for Nadal, but surely he's got to do it one day.

I didn't think you watched any of it Nathan?


I can't see Rafa winning at the US Open tbh, by far his weakest surface. That's the title I can see Murray winning first. And Federer will no doubt bounce back.

It is his weakest link in the four slams, but I just reckon he's got such a huge chance to do it this year. He's not carrying an injury *touches wood*, has not played as much so far this year as he has done in previous years and is on a confidence high. Federer is struggling with his back and lack of form, Djokovic is not as relevant as many think he is, Murray has yet to prove himself at this level and the defending champion may have to miss the event all together.

These are his main contenders for the title, although I suppose he could be upset by an in-form Soderling, Tsonga or even Berdych at the quarter final stage.

I don't mean to sound like I'm writing Roger off (I think he's got another 3 or 4 slams left in him), but at the moment he doesn't have the same sense of invincibility. (Cue Federer winning without dropping a set)
