At least there's Sharapova and Ivanovic to ogle at.

Good - he's a right miserable git and since he slagged off the English some time ago, I'll be cheering on his opponent in every game from now on.

Not that I'm a big tennis fan anyway...

Yes, a Brit doing what we do best most of the time in high level, globally competitive sport: not winning.

Of course he's done fabulously well to crack the Top 10 but this is the kind of defeat which the genuine elite suffer rarely, not commonly and this is the unpalatable situation.

So with Tsonga reaching the final having dispatched Nadal en route, Murray's defeat doesn't look so shabby after all??

Good point.
