Did anyone watch the Andy Murray game last night at Wimbledon?
Pretty impressive that he came back from 2 sets down, with Gasquet serving for the victory. I did feel sorry for the Frenchman, pretty much the entire crowd was against him especially with Murray roaring and fist-pumping when he won points.
However, I don't see Murray making it past Nadal!

However, I don't see Murray making it past Nadal! I didn't get a chance to see Murray against Gasquet, but I heard all about his unabashed displays of his biceps. Who knows, but I don't feel that he'll have a chance if he's up against Nadal either. I did saw the powerful performances of the Williams sisters today though and yeah, they made it to the semi. What amazing power and prowess. Tanasugarn did gave it a good try against Venus though.

I'm so annoyed because I was watching Murray but turned it over before it finished. I love watching epic sporting matches. For him to come back and win shows great application. Future champ I'm sure.

I don't have cable, and NBC didn't air the Murray-Gasquet match (except for 1 minute of highlight.  ) I agree with KeyNotes. The Williams sisters are so powerful. I bet they will be in the finals. And then who would you root for? I think I go for Venus.

Nadal is looking good - completely destroyed Murray... I think he could seriously threaten Federer... One of the joys of working from home is being able to watch the tennis and the Olympics...

So let's the games begins, Federer? Nadal? Will Federer brings home his 6th straight Wimbledon title?
It was a fantastic dual of indurance between Nadal and Schuetler. While Nadal played beautifully, Schuetler put on a great fight and made it not as one-sided as I had thought.

Venus Williams prevails, her fifth! Rosanna, you are right. Amazing performances by the sisters.

I can't even sit down to watch anymore, and these rain delays are not helping any.
