Yay for Elena Baltacha! What a match, she's such a gutsy player.

Yeah and Murray's was a bit iffy. Still, we
know he can improve. I thought he was very
nervy today ~ not to mention my own shredded
nerves.

you might be suprised to know Murray finshed the match with more aces on his first serve than Kendrik but yes dispit that his serve could have been much better in the final set but the reason we point these faults out is a good thing it means we and im sure he knows that he should have done better today .

Nervy covers it nicely

I love the noises Ana makes when she hits a shot

Come on Sharapova!!!! .

Well whats been happening??Some of us have been at work you know

I just cant BEAR all the shrieking....

Sharapova out .

Federers playing some awesome tennis

, we're in the Fed to win camp then .

Don't care either way Darlo tbh, I'd like to see someone new win Wimbledon (not Murray) but Federer is just too good in this match.
Some of the shots and angles are amazing, the other bloke isn't bad but Federers really steamrolling him

I don't want Murray to win either, only would want him to win if somehow the Fed didn't make it .

Ooh you glory supporter Darlo

I tend to go for the underdog if my faves are not playing.
I've never been a great fan of Federer, not that there is anything to dislike about him but I don't really have any feelings about him either way.

But boy can he play tennis

Maybe I should support Murray because he's represting the UK, but I haven't took to him and don't get all his hype. I was took in by Nadal straight away .

Feels the love for Murray in this thread

I'd not mind him winning it, but i don't think he will,

"still missing Nadal"....

, I get so excited when he plays, really not feeling it much without him but it's been good so far.

I love Nadal, such a delight to watch a really gifted player like him.

I don't like Murray at all tbh although I think his brother seems a decent sort and I would support him when he plays.

I'm not sure that it is hype with Murray, he's certainly got the game and is improving all the time - there is a good chance that he will win a major sooner rather than later.

Hey RZB

If he wins it fair and square i'll be happy that he's won it and for the country , don't get me wrong. He certainly has improved lots and will be even better and can win more things in the future.

A bit like Motor Racing, I see them playing for themselves, more than the country with tennis.

he's effortless, the way he's hitting the ball is amazing, stroking it around the court.

Lopez don't know what day of the week it is.

Well done to the Fed!

The poor beggars had to retire injured now, he obviously hurt himself more than everyone thought

Is anyone watching BBC1 ?
There is a really interesting debate on the state and future of British tennis.

Are they mentioning that damned grunty shrieking ,Veggie? Gets on my nerves its just totally uneccessary...grrrr

Hey dk

Nah, they're just talking about how abysmal the Brits have been this year, worst performance in the open era etc etc and what they can do to sort it out.

I don't mind some of the grunting but a lot of it seems like it's done for effect rather than because of exertion

Is this year any worse than the past 10.

Wow Hewitt really fell hard, I remember back in 02 when he was number 1 now he barely reaches the second round in major tournaments...

I like Lleyton Hewitt and hope he does well this year

Bumping for todays matches

Really interesting listening to John McEnroe talking about Jacko and the pressures of fame at an early age
