Saintandy666 Posted 15 August, 2010 Share Posted 15 August, 2010 Yesssssssss, and he romped past Nadal yesterday and the day before that he destroyed Nalbandian who is on excellent form as of late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperMikey Posted 15 August, 2010 Share Posted 15 August, 2010 It's a shame in a way, as he can go abroad and be a real force and win all of these Masters and Open tournaments, but he can't reproduce that form in front of a home crowd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was pretty good at Wimbledon this year... and he won queens last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a lot of that is to do with the fact that he prefers hardcourt rather than grass court tennis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cat Posted 6 September, 2012 Share Posted 6 September, 2012 I watched some of his match last night, started terribly but then at 5-1 down in the second set everything seemed to click and he just waltzed through the rest of the game. Impressive, but he'll need to cut out the slow start if he wants to reach the final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilippineSaint Posted 10 September, 2012 Share Posted 10 September, 2012 (edited) We need a poll for how many sets the final will last and whether he turns Scottish or stays British Would like it to be Murray but head says Djokovic in 5 and Murray's a Jock again Edited 10 September, 2012 by PhilippineSaint Didn't put answer in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saintandy666 Posted 10 September, 2012 Share Posted 10 September, 2012 Is always lovely to break after serving first. Means you can quickly establish a nice 3-0 lead. Still only one break though and early days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
