    GB won wheelchair doubles in a tie break final set. Great game.

    Why the hell do they need him to commentate? I thought he'd been dropped by the BBC for his comments on Bartoli anyway?

    That's what bugs me, there are far better commentators than him available. He's a condescending idiot.

    I just can`t find anything entertaining about Serena Williams bludgeoning her way through matches.

    Nothing against Serena, but I agree. I like to see some variety...that's why it's a nice surprise of someone else wins. Of course I will have no trouble when Murray wins numerous times #hypocritealert

    It's the same reason that I wasn't a Sampras fan - if he was in trouble you just knew that a couple of aces would follow. I've never warmed to Serena, don't like some of her on-court antics (though she was fine today) and much prefer Venus but I really, really wanted Kerber to win because she plays "prettier", more entertaining tennis.
