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

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. |

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.

I think Roddick is a good shout too.
Murray was playing the 18th seed, who had 3 wins (to Murray's four-now five) against him yesterday. Was by no means an easy match.

Womens'- seeds 1, 3 and 4 through to the semis so far, with the probability that number 2, Big Serena, will join them.
