Hapless Scot or Great Britain?

Betting against Novak would be my strategy, either directly if possible or weighting my bets on the other 3.
Personally I hope Federer wins.

Murray is grumpy - watch him as he plays - but I think he just doesn't want to do media and I hardly blame him for that.

Like him or not he is a fantastic tennis player. If he plays close to his best he will beat Tsonga. Sod what his personality is like.

For once I agree with you. Although I can't really fall in love with his style of tennis and I don't know why... he really is a great player these days.

His 'Anyone but England' comment didn't really help his cause with the England fans.

I'm English and I admired him for that. He says what he thinks. Keeps the old rivalries going.

I would have said the same about the Scots if they still had a half-decent team. 1978 was an annis miribalis for England fans in that respect.

In fact I do still say it in other contexts, regarding a handful of football teams and a certain golfer from over the pond.

Have Australia, South Africa and the USA stopped playing tennis?

In fact do they play any sport at all in Australia these days?

Well I saw him without his top on today, so he's getting a thumbs up from me (literally too, if he asked!)

Not a patch on you though MF, you sexy beast

[SallyAnne]

And loving that AndyW still gets a mention

One doesn't want to jinx him but it's looking like a walkover so far.

[TimberWolf]

He's looking distinctly British at the moment.

Oops.
