...Andy Murray's a breath of fresh air. I like his style.

To me, if Henman is, say, a BMW then Murray is a TVR.

Nah, Tim is like an Elise. Beautiful handling put underpowered.

I hope Andy puts up a bloody good fight. You never know. 20,000 people on your side can do wonders and luckily he is not a very nervous character.

However, he is up against Nalbandian and he is one of the most solid players on the tour. Brutal power and he won't be coming into the net to give Murray the passing shots. Both have huge forehands but Nalbandian has a huge backhand and big match experience to back it up which counts for alot.

Good luck to him (Murray that is).

I read in the paper today that he was at the school during the Dunblane massacre. He hid in the school office for two hours, apparently. He was saying it changed his view on life.

Bloody Yanks! They changed the channel they were showing the Championships on and now they are only showing Roddick duffing up Andreev!

I lost the match at 2-2 1st set. I just checked the live score and the boy is doing well. Looks like Nalbandian is making the same unforced errors I saw him making in the first few games and Murray is taking advantage. Good stuff.

He won the first sent on a tie-break and is leading 5-1 in second set! Some brillian play.
