Maybe the performance enhancing drugs have worked for Greg but are exhibiting the unfortunate, and embarassing, side-effect of turning him Scottish.

How gutted would you be? No wonder he's so miserable.

He'll be even more miserable tomorrow unless he improves his game, Djokovic will wipe the floor with him if he gives him as many chances as he did Ferrer.

I think he's much the same as Henman, ability is there, the talent to reach the top isn't.

What, you are joking right, Murray is a far better player than Henman ever was and his record proves that, Murray is top 4 has been for the past few years and will go higher as he gets older. Talk about no pleasing some people. The only players to win slams the last 3 years are Federer and Nadal one is the best of all time and the other has the potential to become the best of all time so the competition for Murray is incredible. But he will win more than his fair share of big tournaments in the coming years.

Murray is better than 'Tiger' Tim, but his game last night had more low points than an episode of Today Tonight. Some of the unforced errors were comical. He has a long way to go before he is top class.

Maybe he'll be more consistent on Sunday, let's hope

That's not a trophy. They shared a glass of Irn Bru and being poncy tennis players just had it in a fancy glass.

I'd strongly disagree there. Henman didn't really have that much talent...compared to other players around him at the time. I am a strong believer that he was actually an over-achiever. His talent was very limited but he managed to make do what he had.

Murray on the otherhand is genuinely one of the 4 best players in the world right now. He has beaten Federer and Nadal on quite a few ocassions, something Henman was incapable of doing (beating Sampras and Agassi that is). There's not much to be ashamed of in losing your previous grandslam finals to someone who will probably be remembered as the best player of all time.

I do, however believe that Djokovic will win tomorrow, he seems to be at the top of his game and Murray is just hitting too many unforced errors at the moment. Murray will win a GS one day but I don't think it will be this time around
