Holden McGroin 4855 Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 I've got no problem with him. Its good for British tennis in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckyluke 1 Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 My mate works on the Tennis tour, Murray is the most arrogant unfriendly piece of shit you could ever hope to meet , if youdidn't know that already. I particularly was annoyed at how he was insistent that he was Scottish, not British at the start of his career, and then a few months ago asking the crowd at Wimbledon to cheer him on. What a hypocritical wanker. Just in case it's unclear, I hope Federer wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig 6302 Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Getting his arse kicked to high heaven if the first set is anything to go by... lost an early break in the second too but got it straight back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bombadil 0 Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 (edited) Well done Roger! So much for him being finished. He'll be back at no. 1 before long. Edited September 8, 2008 by Bombadil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meenzer 14042 Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Oh well - made enough on a Federer win to cover my speculative punts on Montenegro (or as Paddy Power puts it, "FYR Montenegro" ) beating and drawing with Ireland. That'll do nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckyluke 1 Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Well done Roger! So much for him being finished. He'll be back at no. 1 before long. I think Wimbledon was the changing of the guard, I predict Nadal will win all the slams before Federer does. But The latter isn't finished by any stretch of the imagination. And may I add: Gerrin.

I think Wimbledon was the changing of the guard, I predict Nadal will win all the slams before Federer does. But The latter isn't finished by any stretch of the imagination. I really don't think so. Federer had glandular fever at the start of the year and still reached three slam finals. Nadal has had an exceptional season, but I don't think his body will be able to cope with the way he plays at such a high level every year. Federer has got his confidence back now, I'd definitely put my money on him winning the Australian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmmm. Either way, my view on illness and injury is that if you declare yourself fit to play, than you can't use it as an excuse when you fail, as Federer did.

Depends really. I reckon a Nadal injury is Federer's best chance of winning the French though. But Nadal has never even been to the final of the Australian or US Open iirc.

He didn't use it as an excuse, he never even mentioned it but it was confirmed by his former coach IIRC. It only came out a few weeks after the Australian.

Well, as I said, if you declare yourself fit to play, then you should be fit to play, end of. I'm just saying that he's still had a very good season given that he was suffering from glandular fever at the start of the year, and I'm fairly confident that he'll be back at no. 1 after the Australian at the latest. I don't think Nadal will be able to keep playing like he has this season either. The French Open will be his again, but he won't win Wimbledon. Anyway, there will be a reception/parade of some sorts for Federer in Basel tomorrow and I think I'll be there, the fanboy that I am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Hawkeye mate's lifetime ambition is to get one of those stupid red hats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
