faraway saint Posted August 26, 2021 Report Posted August 26, 2021 Murray has drawn Tsitsipas in the upcoming US Open. That's him out then. Not sure what the future holds, going nowhere fast. He's just brought out a new set of sports wear, best to stick to that. Quote
Scott-Leeds Posted August 27, 2021 Report Posted August 27, 2021 Time to put the racket away in a competitive manner.I loved watching Murray and it’s been great for years with so many brilliant players on the circuit He was definitely box office, he may sneak a tournament win on the invitational tournaments but can’t see a major Cheers Murray for great memories Quote

A great pity, beating a player of this standard would have been a massive boost to his confidence. Ach, got to take something from this, his best performance for quite some time. Tennis apart, sound like Tsitsipas has taken a leaf from the Djokovic book of cheating. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/tennis/58389189 Edited August 31, 2021 by faraway saint Quote

Yes he was unlucky but had the chances to go 2 seats up and let it slip . Played some fantastic Tennis and looked fit as a fiddle but let Tsitsipas get under his skin with some mind games before last set He was .unhappy with Tsipitas taking a near 10 minute toilet break and it niggled him throughout the set. Great effort but just came up short . If he had the mental strength of Federer etc, he would have won . Quote
faraway saint Posted September 6, 2021 Report Posted September 6, 2021 The young British girl who had a good Wimbledon is continuing her great from in the US Open......................latest score, won the first set 6-2 after being 2-0 down. Quote
faraway saint Posted September 8, 2021 Report Posted September 8, 2021 Radacanu currently in action the quarter finals. 2-3 down against the serve. No watching it, had enough commandeering the TV last night. Quote

No watching it, had enough commandeering the TV last night. Well, what a turnaround, she's just won 3 games on the trot, including two breaks of serve. Has a chance to serve out the set, 6-3 first set, could be the real deal this girl. Edited September 8, 2021 by faraway saint Quote
faraway saint Posted September 8, 2021 Report Posted September 8, 2021 What a result, through to the semi final, excellent. Quote
faraway saint Posted September 10, 2021 Report Posted September 10, 2021 Well, quite unbelievable, she's only gone and done it, through to the final and, I think, without losing a set. Hard to put this into any sort of context, had to qualify and has sailed through, and she's British. Oh, well done @shull with the name change to the thread. Quote

faraway saint Posted September 10, 2021 Report Posted September 10, 2021 Final scheduled for 9:20 tomorrow evening, hope she win's in 2 sets, as she has done throughout, not sure I'd manage to stay up for a 3 setter. Anyhow, since she's been here since she was 2 I'll stick with supporting her as she's British enough for me. I mean, Greg Rusedski was also British, right? Quote

faraway saint Posted September 10, 2021 Report Posted September 10, 2021 Just been doing a wee bit of reading on her opponent, she's beaten some big guns on route to the final, promising to be a cracker. Leylah Fernandez defeated four seeded players and two Grand Slam champions en route to the women's singles final. Quote

IF it goes into a 3rd set court time could play a part, although at that stage it's more a mind game than physical IMO. Anyhow, nice to have someone to support at this stage of a tournament although the other Murray is in the final of the doubles. Quote
