Australian Open Final - Official Thread.

[Everest]

Is Murray going to be the Jimmy White of tennis?

I doubt it, people liked Jimmy.

 

[Martinf]

He must have a good chance against a fellow scot - Jocky Vich.





















I'll get me coat.

 

[SI 4 BHA]

Andy Murray - British or Scottish in a few hours?

Scottish

 

[Everest]

The way it's going, he won't need a few hours.

oooh, he's actually broken Djoko

 

[Box of Frogs]

Oh dear!

 

[jimhigham]

That's where the "bottle" bit comes in. If you're going to lose a set at the very least make your opponent serve it out rather than give it to him. Because of this he's been behind in every set, as he's handed the first serve to Djokovic. Poor.

 

[The Wizard]

Actually no that will curse it, come on Glenn

 

[Frutos]

Djokovic is leading 6-4 6-2, but Glenn has broken his serve in the first game of the 3rd set.

 

[The Wizard]

Oh dear, breaks Djoko & then bottles it on serve...

 

[Box of Frogs]

Back to normal :bugger:

 

[manilaseagull]

He bottles it every time,.....hahaha horrible little Jock

Looks like final humiliation again....

 

[Watford4ever]

Has Murray been doing the usual stoppy behaviour when things aren't going his way which makes everyone dislike him (fit into the Premiership quite well!)

Not sure if its down to a lack of bottle..maybe just not that good to beat the real quality when it matters mentally?

 

[Box of Frogs]

Djockovic is even beating hawk eye!

Call it whatever you want.....he never seems mentally at the game.....and to say he always meets finalists at their peak is rubbish....He somehow plays well to get to the final but is just not up to it...if he turns this around I will eat my underpants...

This!

When it gets to the final he never imposes himself on his opponent. Every final has been the same. Sit on the baseline, return the serve and wait for the error. End of game plan. He never hits the winners that he does in the rest of the tournament and he never comes to the net once he reaches the final.

 

[Box of Frogs]

Bit late to start making a fight of it!

 

[Don Quixote]

Worst player to ever get the number two ranking. What a bottle job.

 

[The Wizard]

What a shot. Thats game over me thinks.

 

[Box of Frogs]

All over.
