He's an angry young man, big Jerzy, isn't he?

He's finally playing attacking tennis, the Muzza. Pumped up and ready for action. I hope if he gets to the final he doesn't wait until the third set with Djokovic to really have a go at him.

Only four players in the world can turn it on like that.

Ridiculous decision to close the roof, here. Murray is irate.
This is bullshit. No other country would do this to their own player. Murray would have this won, in the time it will now take to close the roof and sort out the air.

An embarrassing amount of spectators don't know the rules when it comes to the ball striking the other player and bouncing back over.
Edit: What a brilliant time to cool off and suspend the match

I'll give a few minutes to The Call Centre then.
You can't really plan for the other match being the longest semi final ever by some way.

Yes you can start it earlier

True, but I fail to understand why they start so late.
Djokovic is already ice bathed and resting up.

In fairness, the show courts have started at 1:00 pm every day of the tournament (once upon a time they started at 2:00 pm) and have scheduled 3 matches a day and have got them all completed on time. Today they scheduled only 2 and the first one overran. You can hardly schedule a semi-final any earlier than 12:30 pm, so them starting half an hour earlier would still have resulted in the roof being required.

Why not start at eleven? I fail to see how that would ruin things. As it is, this may run on until tomorrow.

Although it broke his momentum, the place will be rocking when Murray gets back out there. I think Murray will only need one more set to close out the victory.

Because players tend to like to have an hour's practice before they play. They'd be doing that 8:00 am if you had an 11:00 am start, added to which a fair chunk of the crowd will be off eating their strawberries for elevenses at that time.
