Wimbledon 2011

Post by Captain Seafort »

Second day, and guess which two have been drawn against each other again. A certain Messrs Isner and Mahut. Get comfy - this could take a while.:lol:

...or not, as the case may be. Isner wins in straight sets (albeit with a couple of tiebreaks) 7-6, 6-2, 7-6. Oh the irony. :lol:

Murray-Nadal semi final, Murray takes the first set 7-5, and Nadal had no break points.

Going to be a long one, methinks.

Probably, but at the moment Murray's well ahead on both Aces and unreturned serves, and Boris is astonished at the number of unforced errors Nadal's making.

Nadal squares it 6-2. That was a sloppy set from Murray. :evil:

Nadal wins the third 6-2. I'll be surprised if there's a fifth.

Not yet. Nadal walked away with the second and third but he's having to fight properly for the fourth.

And Nadal takes the fourth 6-4. Murray had the measure of him in the first, fell apart in the second and third, and was simply outplayed in the fourth. At least he was able to make Nadal fight in the last set.

The only useful kind, you mean. All the others are played on a sheet of a surface which normal people try to avoid.
