In wish they'd stop interviewing him on radio when I'm driving. Bat and ball is boring enough, but he almost puts me to sleep before I can change programmes.
Serious road safety hazard, that dullard is.

amare32 said: I certainly wouldn't call a 25 year old kid who is doing what he loves, get paid to do it and have made £25m+ while doing it a loser. This is fantastic! Olympic gold medalist, at the peak of his powers who'll recapture the world #3 ranking on Monday while giving it his all for his first Grand Slam title against one of the best players in the game. No unexpected opponent that found himself in the final through good fortune and a hot streak, arguably the most in-form player of the past 2 seasons. Not to mention the $2m (pre multi, multi, multi million dollar bonuses) on the line. Unbeknownst to Andy, all of this is meaningless because there's a monumental £20 wager that trumps all of the above  As much as I'd love for this to go to 5 breathless sets.. I am calling it as follows.. 64, 63, 67, 64 - Murray

Nah, think Andy MUST be aware of the legendary wager and that has been what's been playing with his mind in the last few grand slams!

64, 63, 67, 64 - Murray I also think Murray will win tonight and I've a hunch he'll do it in less than 5 sets. In some ways I'm also pleased he'll be facing Djokovic in the final as if he'd won the tournament without facing any of the "big three" I've a feeling his detractors would have been quick to seize on that and call it a hollow victory; can't say that with Novak as his opponent in the final!

Either way a Scotsman will win surely?
Murray or Jock O'Vich
You decide.

You decide. Scots or Oirish shirley?! I also reckon Murray can do it tonight. The Olympic final was a watershed moment, I think the monkey of choking in big finals is now off his back. Lendl has added a certain something (belief?) to Andy's game, I think he's a contender on ability now. I hope his mental side doesn't let him down tonight.

It's not been playing on his mind, he's been sand-bagging to build up the tension for a more dramatic finale against im. Good luck Murray! What time is kick off?

9pm for you guys in the UK. I'm an hour ahead and wanting to watch this, but have 2 important meetings at work tomorrow... I just know there will be a quick win by Djoko, or a massive epic that lasts a long time. A quick win by Djoko isn't worth staying up for, but a draw out epic means very little sleep! I'm going for Murray in 5 sets for the prediction! 7-5, 6-4, 2-6, 6-7, 21-19

Don't have to download anything on that one.
