Don't cry Rog.

did he actually cry?

Yes, during the presentation ceremony. Not out and out wailing, but definitely shed tears of emotion and disappointment, such that Nadal apologised for beating him.

roger cried when he won aswell

Murray into the final in Rotterdam, probably to face Nadal.

Murray wins the first set 6 - 3.



My money is still on Nadal.

Nadal won the second set and now Murray is walking the third.

6-3 4-6 5-0

Murray wins in 3. Nadal was injured, but hey.



British.

Murray wins again against Nadal when it's a 3 set smaller tournament.When he does it in a GS i'll start to take him seriously.

Fair point. It can't do his bank balance, and ranking, any harm though.

Hold on one second.

Hes just beaten the best player in the world quite comfortably and Murray himself was also carrying an injury.

He is 21 years old. World Number 4 (probably soon to be number 3)

Hes winning tournaments left, right and centre yet you cannot take him seriously?

He got to the Final of the US Open where he got out-classed by one of the games best ever players.

Give the lad some credit. Hes doing all the right things IMO...he has a good chance in this years US Open and an outside chance in the other grand slams. If not this year he has years ahead of him to put things right.

Dubai this week on the Mens tour. Federer has mysteriously pulled out, and Murray is there but looks to be still carrying an ankle injury.

Won his first game although not to convincing.

Murray is all set to play Arnaud Clement in the second round. He has only met Clement twice and has lost both times. Holy Bandana!

Murray romps home 6 - 2 6 - 3.

He has pulled out of the quarter final with a virus.

Bummer. Davis Cup next week. If he doesn't play, GB may well be relegated to the Federation Cup next year.

Sure enough, Murray has pulled out of the Davis Cup tie with Ukraine.

I await the call from John Lloyd.

I'm currently researching my ancestry to see if I have any Ukrainean forebears.



Interesting factoid: Pole vaulter Sergei Bubka's son, also called Sergei, is scheduled to play in the doubles.

Goodall manages to lose 3 tie-breaks in a row. 1 - 0 Ukraine.

Chris Eaton has lost the first set. Super.

Eaton takes the second set. Not bad for the World 383.

...and loses the 3rd.

...and loses the 4th. GB 0 Ukraine 2.

Doubles tomorrow. I'm confident.

GB need to win the doubles to stay in the tie.

First set to Ukraine, featuring Sergei Bubka's lad, Sergei. He's for the high jump if they lose.

Second set to GB. The crowd goes wild...
