Murray saves two break points at 5-5. Man, there are time during his matches that I really hate watching Andy Murray play. Del Potro's forehand though... rocket-powered!
 
And there it is. The first man ever to defend the Olympic singles title.

Fantastic match. I wonder whether Del Potro will now be able to step up and regularly challenge Murray and Djokovic?
 
Bolt remains Bolt. And Andre de Grasse is pretty good for a guy who became a sprinter as a joke.

Bolt cheering him on in the semis and after the race was pretty great. Not a better ambassador for sport.

Definitely can't cope with 3hrs sleep these days :(

Well, unless chemically induced, I seem to be only capable of about 3.5 - 4 hours, which is not good. And I've not even watched the olympics, as, typically, I go to sleep around midnight and wake at 4 :(
Trying to get myself sorted, but life is a tad difficult at the mo and I have a lot on my mind .....

Hang in their fella... Lots of people around for you! You can chew my ear off for 4 hours next week. I probably won't hear much as I'll be in the trees rummaging through the undergrowth! <laugh>
