vanderark14 Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Aussie open final Djokovic v Medvedev on eurosport now. Weird seeing crowds at a sporting event. The women's final wasn't very competitive,I hope this is different today. Mon Medvedev, Djokovics constant need to be loved is annoying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caledonian Craig Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 As I thought Djokovic proved way too good for Medvedev. It is one thing having the talent to reach a Slam Final but then one's mental resolve and belief is put under the microscope and that is where the Russian came up short.

vanderark14 Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Murray was rolling back the years till he was 5 up in the 3rd set and then he lost the next 7 games. At least he's still 2 sets to 1 up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite a performance considering his opponent was a No 24 seed and Murray has only played two matches on tour this year so there was a heck of a lot of rust. On top of that there are still niggling injury concerns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caledonian Craig Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Another epic win for Murray under the roof at Wimbledon. What guts and fighting spirit he showed. He trailed qualifier Otte by two sets to one and in a dark place but that resolve and grit followed by some damned good tennis pulled him through to win in five sets in just under four hours. Next up Denis Shapovalov (No 10 seed) who had a walkover today so will be far fresher than Andy. For me this is about court time. Shaking off rust and regaining match fitness so I don't expect too much for from Andy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caledonian Craig Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 Andy Murray will take on Denis Shapovalov (No 10 seed) in a Third Round match on Centre Court today. His is the last match on court so should be starting around 5.30pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caledonian Craig Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 Andy Murray lost 6-4 6-2 6-2 against No 10 seed Denis Shapovalov. He just never really got going and was not consistently hitting the ball well enough. As I thought Andy was self analytical afterwards and bitterly disappointed with his performance. When the dust settles though I sure he will feel much better knowing his body holds up to tournament tennis and he can still beat seeded players and recover and return to win his next match. That is a big step forward from where he was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
