A lot of the top seeds, especially in the womens have fallen and there have been some epic games. Possibly the best game I ever saw, Andy Murray v Richard Gasquet yesterday. From 2 sets down and 5-4 down (Gasquet serving to win match) Andy Murray went on to win in an amazing 5 set victory. Can't wait to see Murray v Nadal, I'm hoping Murray goes all the way :001_tt1: Link to comment https://forums.steam-gamers.net/topic/5591-wimbledon-2008/

Murray game was brilliant last night, that shot to win the tie break in the 3rd, how in Gods name he got to that...

Its unfortunate he has to face Nadal next round Link to comment https://forums.steam-gamers.net/topic/5591-wimbledon-2008/#findComment-56323

Since NBC carries it from 10 AM to 2 PM I believe... I have no Noon news...so I just slack off the rest of the day!

Would be suprised if he lost in 3 anyway. Link to comment https://forums.steam-gamers.net/topic/5591-wimbledon-2008/#findComment-56339
Jaffa Posted July 1, 2008 Content Count: 4263 Joined: 09/18/07 Status: Offline Share Posted July 1, 2008 Nadal is top of his game, i can'#t see Murray winning, i think this is the furthest Murray has got before at Wimbledon, he hasn't made it past the quarter finals at any of the opens either Link to comment https://forums.steam-gamers.net/topic/5591-wimbledon-2008/#findComment-56341
Rat Posted July 1, 2008 Content Count: 138 Joined: 03/21/08 Status: Offline Share Posted July 1, 2008 Yup this is the furthest he's ever come, but he's only been in the senior game for around 2 or 3 years. Furthest achieved records are there to be broken too :thumbup: Nadal may well beat him, but he'll give him a game.

I have been a Federer fan since 03 (or maybe 02) I think. I think/hope Nadal wins and gets to the finals so Federer can get revenge and beat him again on grass. Shut Nadal's punk ass up.
