Straight sets 6-2, 6-1, 6-4.
BRILLIANT.

 

[Bladders]

Wow! cleaned him out in straight sets.

Was a mauling in the end

 

[CorgiRegisteredFriend]

Is he going to hug the whole crowd?

FFS Murray

 

[Triggaaar]

Brilliant, well done Andy.

So basically, all this time, his problem has been that he's represented the sweaties. Represent GB and he's a star.

 

[Gazwag]

That was absolutely fantastic

 

[SeagullSongs]

Both good routines but Lewis had a better dismount. Not sure how he didn't win outright.

Oh well...

I'm not sure I like this 'execution > difficulty' thing. Surely they're punishing more difficult routines?
It should be a joint gold like they can do in other events.

 

[PriapismBoy]

Amazing well done Murray

One in the eye for half of nsc

Quite clear what motivates fed

That's a bit mean when you consider his performance in the semis

Amazing performance, could this be the spur to winning one of the big 4 ?

England's Brave Andy Murray! England's Brave Andy Murray! England's Brave Andy Murray! England's Brave Andy Murray! England's Brave Andy Murray! England's Brave Andy Murray!

Still can't get my head round tennis in the olympics (a bit like team BG at footie) - just too old I guess. But I can appreciate a brilliant performance - and from a Scot too.
Hope he gets a mixed double medal as well - he's become quite likeable in the last month

Fantastically proud of Andy Murray! Congratulations and well done. THRASHED Federer!

Well done Muzza, for today and today only you are British..... Tomorrow you will be just another sweaty

 

[Icy Gull]

Warmed to him after the Wimbledon tears, he was amazing today and blew Federerer away.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Can he do it in the mixed doubles?
