If Gasquets first serve does not falter, Murray can't win. Its unstoppable at the moment

I think either way he's screwed tbh, less that 50% of his first serves are in and his 2nd serve is a sitter. Would love to be proved wrong, mind

What a turn around, turning into a cracker.Where did Gasquet go before the 5th set? I only have hebrew commentators so I only understand the basic stuff

[Giggidy]

What a comeback!

Odds on tomorrow's Sun headline being something along the lines of... 'Murray blows a Gasquet'?Gutted he won. I hate his face.Anyway, I'm going tomorrow, and check out the line up I get:Dementieva v PetrovaA Radwanska v S Williamsand men's doubles.. Bryan/Bryan v Granollers/VenturaWTF???! Oh, yeah I'm really looking forward to that. So unfair, imo.

As a Scotsman i'm happy to see Murray doing well. His isn't the most jolly player but thats not his job. I couldn't care less if he moaned all the way to the final. Indeed its good to have a Scottish player/team doing well for a change. Our football team can't qualify for major tournaments anymore, since Monty became crap we have no decent golfers and Alex Arthur aside we have no decent boxers (and just wait till he meets someone decent). Murray for Wimbledon? Stranger things have happened.............

No freakin wayAssuming Nadal isn't injured I'll be surprised if Murray wins another set this tournament

What no love for Jie? I'm impressed and it's getting lots of press in the Far East.Venus and Serena really sound like children with their moaning about which courts they play.

There was a column in a local paper down here in FLA that basically accused Wimbledon of showing its true colors and revealing how sexist the tournament organizers are.It's not enough they get equal pay for playing best of 3 instead of best of 5? Now they have a new axe to grind? Always fun to watch feminsts straddle the line between championing a worthy cause and being really really annoying.

Fucking Hell. Nadal is wiping the floor with Murray. I bet Nadal has a dick like an anaconda, swinging in the wind.

[SlapStick]

Poor Murray, he's only 21, he has so many wimbledon build ups and let downs to go through. Hopefully he can snatch something

does this really surprise you? Nadal is playing at an elite level while Murray needed a huge home-court advantage just to rally back to get by Gasquet (who is good but not that good).I am starting to actually believe Nadal could beat Federer this time. Predicting an amazing 5 set thriller for them.

Not surprised. That was probably Nadal's best ever grass court match. Too good.Statement bolded for hope.

Boo rain! Inevitable Williams march towards the final in progress.Scheuttler/Clement had been very entertaining, I didn't hold much hope for either versus Nadal but for two 30somethings to play 5 sets the day before they play him I hold out even less.

yeah the winner (I am going to guess Clement) is just a sacrificial lamb to Nadal at this point.I wonder if Safin will give Federer any trouble. I could see him taking a set.

[SlapStick]

Federer is so ridiculous, having a huge serve means nothing agaisnt him. Ancic's service game is amazing, at least 2 times, he was still following through on the serve and Federer had returned and won the pointI've been saying Nadal will take Federer this year, after the Queens djokovic game, if hes going to beat him on grass the time is now. Federer has had a bad "federer" year and even before the French open, in his interview it just seems like Nadal has the mental advanatage.

[Poppy_Hillis]

Anybody watching this match? That was a crazy 4th set tiebreak.

[Jrobb25]

This is unreal. If you don't like tennis this will make u like it. I've changed like 20 times whom I'm rooting for. Jst a great great match.

[loogie]

Great match. Go Nadal!

[Poppy_Hillis]

Love how it rained so it's live now, but please don't rain again.

[SlapStick]

yes its been absolutely amazing
