Wimbledon 2013 - my idea of heaven. Is it yours?

His interview was no different from all his others. That's how he is. He's a tennis player, not a media lovey.

Who won?

Our Andy.

Thanks!

Ooh yes Betsygran You CAN say "our Andy". (peeped at your profile)

Betsygran "My knitting got faster and faster"

And didn't drop a stitch!!!

They must dread that interview afterwards, he always asks the most stupid questions and often repeats the same one again in a slightly different way.

That Spaniard was a bit of a hunk,

Wasn't he just!!!

We need a 'corrr' emoticon.

I'm hoping for a Bartoli - Lisicki final, but this afternoon's women's semis are going to be enjoyable, whatever the outcome

I hope that Lisicki becomes the Wimbledon champ. I like her attitude.

We watched the Ladies Doubles on Court 2 yesterday - perhaps not so much cachet as the Men's Singles but wonderful to see scintillating tennis played live. I couldn't help thinking back to when the women's game was criticised for being boring and slow - not any more. Those women had strength, power and athleticism in abundance.
Oh and we watched the final 3 games of Andy's match on the big screen as we left. There wasn't even standing room on Murray Mound and we were moved slowly on by security - but still saw the last point and the atmosphere was something I've never before experienced !
Thought of you Soop and wished you could have been there

Bartoli played a great match. This one between Lisicki and Radwanska is not going to be over as quickly, by the looks of it!

Sorry - tennis doesn't do it for me but I appreciate many people do love it so resign myself to BBC being almost wall to wall tennis at this time of year HOWEVER, got really miffed yesterday when I switched on TV to watch early evening local news only for them to say they were staying with the match - so switched to BBC2 thinking it had been transferred there, but no some stupid man telling me how to make a cheesecake was on .

I loved the way Bartoli spoke so warmly of her opponent. Bit concerned at the number of injuries these players are carrying; could the tennis season just be too demanding?

...going in to work [should have gone ages ago]. Can't watch this any more ; really want Lisicki to win...

Lisicki...wow, a wonderful game and a worthy winner.

Phew! What a match, glad she won, but some fabulous tennis from both. I'd like her to win, but she will have to be more consistent to beat Bartoli.

Can't believe I'm crying again about a tennis match! Good luck for the final sabine.

What a great match! Both would have been worthy winners. Can't wait for the final!

Great match. Women's tournament sooooo much better without Serena.

And Venus!

I was listening to the commentary as I drove home. Went to pick up a prescription and deliver it to the pharmacy expecting the match to be over when I got home. Lo and behold, it really went to the wire and I thoroughly enjoyed watching the end. By that time, although I wanted Lisicki to win, I would have been quite happy if the winner had been Radwanska - a very attractive player too.

I have just read this on facebook - and wanted to share!

"Baffles me when people call Andy Murray "dour". He's from central Scotland. We consider him dangerously flamboyant, talkative & over-emotional"
