Congrats to the Grumpy Scot - Gold Slam 1st two stages completed!

OK we've waited for an age for the ghost of Fred Perry to be exorcised, then like London Buses, 2 come along. Start of a dominant year?

[Knock-on]

Flushed with success!

Well done Andy ( he's a Brit today ;) )

It was cool to watch. :)

He looked exhausted, in pain and I'm sure, relieved.

More victories will sure come.

After the Olympics, and especially after Berdych knocked Federer out, I felt it wouldn't be long before we saw Murray's pained expressions of victory after a grand slam final. Congratulations to him.

Not my favourite player, but I really like how he's adopted Lendl's bodyline tennis approach.

I have to say I've really been warming up to Murray, I only watched the match against Berdych. It was a hotly contested, close match, but what really cracked me up was when he said about the gale force winds, and general inclement weather:

"These are the worst conditions I've ever played in and I'm a Scott" :laugh:

[Tazio]

^^Of course I meant Scot ;) actually I think he said: "and I'm from Scotland" but I don't remember the interview verbatim :)

^^Of course I meant Scot ;)

Actually most of us Englishmen think he's a bit of a 'Scott' too ;)

You say 'bodyline' like it's a bad thing!! ;)

Do I? ;)

It's allowed in the rules - so he's perfectly entitled to do it.
