    I have to say I love the British crowd. While they obviously cheer for Murray, they still respect Djokovic and cheer for him when he pulls off good points. Let's only see whether they'll boo him if he loses his drive like Vettel at Silverstone...

    Seriously, though, I wish people were like this in many other countries. Having a bit of respect for the rivals in Davis Cup matches would be a great thing IMHO.

    Solid start but both are so good that either could win in straight sets from now or it could end 3-2
    I still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy

    That's the indefatigable British sense of fair play, my dear fellow.

    OMG, Nole has just saved three championship points. And I had my message ready for when Murray won it - now I've had to delete it and I'll need to rewrite it later!

    Well, that was an extremely intense final game. Now I can say it: today Andy is a Brit, not a Scot. Well played, Andy!
