    Murray - that's the bloke who, if he wins, is "British" but when he loses he's "Scottish" that right?

    Yeah - just like when your 'Australian' whenever Australia win anything, but revert back to English and/or British whenever they win something.

    I'm taking the piss you 'twerp'.

    Dual nationality is a complicated way of saying 'I pick whoever is doing better'.

    No. He's the bloke who's a twat when he wins and a twat when he loses. Nationality or ethnicity is irrelevant; he's just a twat.

    Federer coasts through.
    Djokovic 2 sets to love down. Possible shock here.

    This Anderson lad is proper giving Novak a run for his money. Been a great match so far.

    Well, Novak decided to turn it up a notch for that set.

    Just started watching. Shots are out of this world from Djok. Think he's broke him now

    Not the same Jaroslav Drobny though. The tennis player being discussed was born in 1921 and the Fulham goalkeeper in 1979. I do not believe they were related.

    Never saw Kramer play either, but remember him well as he was always on BBC Wimbledon in the mid-late 50's as the expert analyst/colour commentator.
    He seemed to have a great deal of knowledge of tactics - must have been a great player in his day ?

    9 days in and your punts are looking good.
    Serena looks a shoe-in now.
    Djokovic, (if he can overcome the surprising Anderson in the 5th today) should easily get to the final, but I think a Murray-Federer semi is too close to call as they are both playing exceptionally well. I have a sneaky suspicion ( and hope) that Federer might just get his 8th trophy. A record that'll be hard to beat. Otherwise Djokovic.

    I like sitting on the fence.

    Suppose inevitable - but Anderson made it difficult.
