Ahhh, the loss, the defeat...

Quote
And despite the defeat, Murray remained sharp enough to make a joke when asked how he felt about picking up a cheque for US$1m.  "That's about £10, isn't it?" he said.

"Andy wins his second Masters with a Murraycoaster of a tie-break. What a way to win!"

I imagine he's now earning a Murray mint ...









Hat, coat, raquet etc

Can't stand the man ~ he has been supported by the GB Tennis authorities for years, soaking up the cash, living the life of riley whilst learning his trade and he "Hates the English" ~ ungrateful little b@st@rd. Mind you his mother was at school with SWMBO who says the woman was a bitch then and still is.

I'm inclined to agree. We've seen the result of 'pushy parent' syndrome all too often.  There's a man who teaches his daughter tennis over the road every weekend ~ reminds me of the Williams sisters father and verges on mental brutality. The local tennis coach has had to step in a couple of times with ensuing arguments  ::)

Sadly there are few top level professional players in any sport who have anything resembling a rounded character and a balanced attitude.
