I think Stan will take this set.

Nadal or Roger would have beaten Murray 6-0, 6-0, 6-0.

If Murray is number 3 in the world, the standards have plummeted

Does anyone even know what most of the top 10 even look like?

Well, this fella looks like Jonathan Wilkes.

Alarm bells. 2 sets all. BBC schedule is well knackered.

Yes thanks. I even know some of the men.

All works well for the BBC, arrange for the match to be on prime time on the main channel, then when the "massive audience figures" come back from BARB it justifies all the hype and coverage wimbledon gets

Murray on his way out methinks.

Haven't seen him play this poorly since the Olympics.

He's doing his best to throw it away.

The unseeded Juan Carlos Ferrero awaits the winner in the last eight...

Well Done Andy Murray You Can Continue Being British Not Scottish For At Least Another Game!...

Never in doubt.

Yes!! Come on Tim!

He will never be Tim!




Tim was maybe not particularly likeable but at least he wasn't as hateful!

IF he gets to the final he will be murdered if he plays anything like that. Very very lucky

Surely he can't play that badly again.

Can he?

He isn't a robot you know bad games to come around. If this was henman everyone would be praising him for showing great character and being resilient.

I would hope not

Considering one of the men that you think would beat Murray 6-0, 6-0, 6-0, the undisputed best ever player in the world, Roger Federer has lost far more matches to Murray than he has beaten him, then one would suggest that the standards have plummeted far more than even you would have believed.

I don't think Murray played poorly it was just that Stan was absolutely outstanding in virtually eveything he did. IMO Murray needed a match like that, it will toughen him up for the matches ahead of him. I think he will beat Ferrero and then have a monumental clash with Roddick before a mouthwatering final against Federer.

Anyone doubting the quality of the top ten obviously does not watch much tennis. There are some outstanding players in the ten in both mens and womens. If Murray wins Wimbledon he won't be far off no.1 in the world.

Womens quarters today.

In the Mens Federer has drawn the serving freak that is Ivo Karlovic. I hope he doesn't just get battered, although Federer himself has a great record in tie-breaks.

I would not be surprised to see all the sets decided in tie breaks tbh. The tie of the round in the mens has to be Roddick v Hewitt.

Great win for Murray. Stan was terrific for virtually the whole match.

I'm still backing Roddick.
