Andy Murray
Well done to Andy on winning his 2nd Wimbledon. 3 time Grand Slam champion, Gold medallist and Davis Cup winner. It was a great weekend for British tennis as Heather Watson won the mixed (with Henri Kontinen), Gordon Reid from Scotland won the wheelchair doubles and singles and Jordanne Whiley won the ladies wheelchair doubles. Sunday was the first time since the 1930's when 4 Brits won Wimbledon titles on the same day.

Re: Andy Murray
And what's happened to the Aussie asshats Nick and Bernard who , according to you, are the next great hopes for Australian tennis greatness?
I have yet to meet anyone down here who has a nice thing to say about the pair - in fact they are widely despised

Re: Andy Murray
As Murray, McEnroe, Becker, Cash etc all say, IF Nick can sort out his head he'll win plenty of Slams. Time will tell. Murray was an angry young man and wasn't liked too fwiw.

Re: Andy Murray
I know they are and appreciate why. Have a look at the world top 20 and you'll see both in it. A 16 year old boy, Alex De Minaur, made the Boys Singles final and looks a good prospect too.

Re: Andy Murray
Yes, it is a big IF with Nick and time will tell but he has the game to be world number one and win plenty of slams. If you don't take note of what I predicted then listen to the experts who do and have been there, done that and got the T-shirt.

Re: Andy Murray
Well you didn't watch all 4 of Tomic's matches at Wimbledon did you? Hewitt is working with both Tomic and Kyrgios, especially Tomic and the difference was very noticeable with Bernie who was stiff to go out 9-7 in the 5th against Pouille who is WR 21 and he played well all tournament.

Re: Andy Murray
Yep, it was funny because Andy made reference to David Cameron in his speech. He said it was an easy job he had compared to being PM at this moment (Cameron and his mother were in the Royal Box) and when his name was mentioned and the cameras were on him there was booing on Centre Court at Wimbledon which is unprecedented.

Looks like a lot of applause to me.
