WIMBLEDON 2014

On the brink. BP

I'm not really worried yet, Murray is comedic atm but he's come from 1/2 sets down and won messier matches than this. Dimitrov's done nothing wrong but hasn't really been challenged yet.

Nicely constructed point to save it.

Lex - amazed you are not worried. His mind is not right today.

Broken with more UEs

30-30. Pulls it long.

1st crap game from Dimitrov.

It's best of five. If nothing changes in the third set, then it's time to worry, but the chances that he'll dig deep or Dimitrov will blink aren't low.

Breaks back!

eg, like there.

Dimitrov has blinked...

Hahaha you can hear the cheering all the way from No.1 court...

Yeah, Murray finding his range!!

That was a big point. And Dimitrov dumped a BH halfway up the net to end it...

Doh, just remembered they'd be showing it on the big screen outside No.1 hence cheering. It's woken Cilic up a bit at least.

Lucky to get out of that game, but this match has turned into a scrap, which Murray's pretty good at...

beautifully saved BPs

"it's a bit surprising that the first three points of this TB are UEs" says the commentator

no, no it's really not at all surprising tbh!

Dimitrov played a big FH to cut down the rally lenght.

Played some beautiful points for 2SPs

Very well played.

Probably Dimitrov's best tennis of the match in that TB, taking control when it became apparent that Murray wouldn't

Cilic gets the 2nd set!

Ah shit I didn't even pay attention to Cilic after the first set!!

A French colleague just said that Andy is playing exactly the same way as Amelie used to at @rolandgarros

Murray won that point but Dimitrov's incredible speed was evidence enough that trying to outgrind him is a terrible strategy

I've never heard the broken string as bad luck thing, as just suggested by Mac

everything McEnroe says should either be tuned out or used to assume the opposite

switched off.

Oh dear.

If this was Gasquet I'd put some money on Murray now but Dimitrov is not, I think, on that level of choker

Oh are you just gonna hand it over with UEs and not even make him serve it out?

LOL DF for two MPs

FH halfway up the net on the second. Terrible really

here for the Dimitrov-Fed final

some tepid applause there lol

Thought Murray would lose just not so lamely.

Murray has won this fkn thing though, it doesn't make any sense!

here for the Dimitrov-Fed final

*prepares self for Fed vs Baby Fed media narrative*

Dimitrov and Bouchard both break the top 10 with these wins btw

"There's a worrying air of resignation on a packed Henman Hill. Drinks are being sipped, not swigged, sandwiches nibbled, not munched, the applause rudimentary, not lusty. As bare backs redden in the hot sun, you sense the fans are desperate for Murray to give them something to cheer about."

Nothing about how he played today really made sense xp

I know :-(

Djoko should beat him...as long as he gets through Cilic (BP now)

so... discovering that the sports channel subscription at my workplace includes the one for centre court tennis but not the one for court 1 tennis. annoying. How is the Cilic/Nole match generally?

Goran in attendance!

Cilic is putting up a fight, really at the crucial stage now.

only just tuned in but even with Cilic having won a set the result feels NID

Cilic 15-30

DF, 2BPs...wtf is this?

omg breaks!!

!!!!

Becker is screwing Djoko over.
