[Guest LFD]

That's a very strange reason to not support someone mate.  A Scottish person supports the independence of his own country, what's wrong with that?

 

I am British, not Scottish.  Happy to support him when he was happy to be part of Britain.

 

But he wanted Scotland to be Independent, not be part of Britain - so he has lost my support.

Quite bizarre logic from LFD here.

I am proud to be British, he obviously isn't so he has lost my support.

Fucking hell.

Pay British income tax then do you LFD?

Twas an accident of birth, mate.

I am English,but I hate vast swathes of my fellow countrymen and find I have more in common with the Scots and Irish anyhow.

 

I dont even like Tennis but I was browsing and was pretty surprised by your comments.

[Nunavut Patrick]

And on Burns Day no less he pulls his support.....

[Herp McDerp]

Nadal being taken apart at the moment, cant remember the last time he made this many unforced errors.

What happens when the IoM gets sold off to the Chinese?

What happens when the IoM gets sold off to the Chinese?

They already own half of our industry.

Maybe LFD is yuan-ing for the old days?

[Jose Jones]

Murray just walloped Kyrgios. He played really well. The Rusedski-loving LFD will doubtless be disappointed.

Berdych is obviously in top form though after smashing Nadal so should be a tough semi. Berdych has one of Murray's old coaches too. Djokovic would be clear favourite for the title still.

[Spy Bee]

Nadal is in terrible form. I thoroughly expect Murray to win. I'll actually be surprised if he doesn't go all the way!

[Dr Nowt]

I would say there is a 0% chance of Nadal beating Murray.

[Dr Nowt]

Murray playing at 08:30 tomorrow.  Live on Eurosport.

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

I think he will lose this one. It would be great to start the season with a final though. Tough year after the surgery, so would be a step in the right direction.

[Dr Nowt]

Know what you mean.  There is definitely a noticable difference to last year in his level.  Problem of course being that this is really his time and each year gone makes it harder.

Good quality stream for the Murray match.

[Dr Nowt]

Berdych serving brilliantly.

 

That get from Murray to save 0-40 was incredible, a big moment so early on.

[Dr Nowt]

Murray lucky to hit the ball once a point on Berdych's serve. 

 

Having to work far harder on his own and in this set that looks likely to be the difference.

[Dr Nowt]

Berdych serving brilliantly.

Short stay of execution, broken in his next service game and 5-3 down.

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

Straight sets loss coming up here.

[Dr Nowt]

Point of the match so far and he breaks straight back.  Was not expecting that, 5-4 down.

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

Great resilience from Andy that.

[Major Tom]

Good stuff, Andy.

 

Too often when he comes up against a player in this sort of form, he lets them dictate. He goes all passive and they walk all over him. He needs to counter and attack.

 

Counter-attack, if you will.
