    Good luck to Murray tomorrow ! He`s done brilliantly so far, wouldn`t it be fantastic if he could do it (miserable prick or not). First Brit in the final since 1938. He`s the underdog of course, but he`s beaten Federer several times before, so why not ? And I hope Marray wins his doubles final tonight too.

    Got to play better than his last 3 grand slam finals,he has been very poor in the finals.

    He can beat Federer just needs to be strong mentally,easier said than done.

    He'll have the support of the crowd which will help - I think he'll do it.

    If that was true she'd run off with Roddick.

    What a story in the doubles! Marray and his partner never won a title in their lives, were a wildcard into the tournament and they go and win it!

    How wonderful was that. Marray looked like a lad who'd just walked in off the street. A British player who didn't fold and his partner was virtually playing with one hand. He won nearly as much money tonight as he's won in the last ten years together.

    Apparently 76 years since a Briton won the doubles title and 76 years since a Briton won a mens singles...omen?
