faraway saint Posted September 15, 2022 Report Share Posted September 15, 2022 Roger Federer, possibly one of the best players ever to lift a tennis racquet, has decided to retire. At his best he seemed to float over the court, hardly breaking sweat and just got on with the job. What a player and he will be missed.

Borg, McEnroe, Connors, Sampras for starters. The recent US Open final gives you two guys, especially Alcaraz, who could well be the new kings of the castle. Tennis is a great game, a brilliant scoring system that always gives the chance of a comeback. I'm looking forward to seeing Murray in December, it'll be a honour to see one of the best Scottish sportsmen live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve heard about Alcaraz , not seen him yet Murray will probably bow out soon I’d imagine ?I prefer grass court tennis [emoji462] overall but watch all tennis when time allows I hope we get another batch ( as in at least 3 or 4 ) to follow in the near future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faraway saint Posted November 6, 2022 Report Share Posted November 6, 2022 Just watched a superb final in the Paris Masters. A 19 year old Danish player, Rune, managed to beat the legend that is Djokovic in 3 sets. The last, and deciding game, lasted 17 minutes. Credit to the young guy holding his nerve. It wont be long till i have the pleasure of watching Murray in the flesh in Aberdeen just before Christmas. It'll be an honour to watch one of the greatest Scottish sportsmen ever.

faraway saint Posted December 21, 2022 Report Share Posted December 21, 2022 The Battle of the Brits is underway in Aberdeen. Dan Evans beats a young Scot to take a 1-0 lead for England. The main man on next against my tip for the top Draper. Looking forward to seeing Murray live tomorrow, the greatest ever Scottish sportsman iMO.

faraway saint Posted December 21, 2022 Report Share Posted December 21, 2022 The Scottish female continues to make a fool of herself................... "When was the last time Murray made an unforced error".............................two shots before that one, FFS. Anyhow, tomorrows order of play................................

faraway saint Posted December 21, 2022 Report Share Posted December 21, 2022 (edited) Brilliant tennis from Murray to win the 3rd set tie break 12-10 I was concerned this would be a bit of a exhibition match, not a bit of it, real tennis from both players. Cant wait for tomorrow, I might have to push some children out of the way to get a "selfie" with Murray. Current score, England 1-1 Scotland. PS The female commentator, Jenny Drummond, an absolute wassock. Edited December 21, 2022 by faraway saint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was on top form in the first set, hitting the ball straight out of the middle of the racquet. Draper really raised his game in the 2nd set, he's a talent IMO and worth watching in the future,. First came onto my radar at Queens this year and since then he's had a great season, currently number 42 in the world at the age of 20. (21 tomorrow) As I mentioned, a real tennis match, I was worried it would be an over priced knock about, certainly not on tongiths showing. Can't wait for tomorrow, Murray against Evans will be a cracker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faraway saint Posted December 22, 2022 Report Share Posted December 22, 2022 Fulfilled an ambition and just watched the legend that is Sir Andrew Murray. He lost on the tie break to an inspired Dan Evans but it was a joy. Just about to go back in and watch tonight's session. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faraway saint Posted December 23, 2022 Report Share Posted December 23, 2022 The evening session featured the Murray brothers. Although our seats were very close the view was poor but the match was good enough to keep us interested. The Murray brothers won to round off an excellent day/night. At one point a stray shot sent a ball into the Scottish team area where it hit a certain Willie Miller right on the heid. 🤣 Managed to get a picture with Ian Holloway, what a character. Also a young player, Johnny O'Mara, starred who hails from Arbroath. He was crowned the Prince of Arbroath, decent player and quite a personality.
