The Final

It was the final Sunday of Wimbledon and we were treated to a real epic of a Men's Final. Djorkovic playing the home favourite Murray. The first three games if the first set lasted almost 2 minutes and the the game looked to be even.

Murray took the first set, but was just been broken in the second set. Almost all the games went to deuce, and they were halfway into the second set after an hour and a half of playing in bright, glorious sunshine. I could get a heatstroke just by looking at them playing.

I don't think I would be able to watch the game right till the end. I had to.work.tomorrow, but would definitely be checking on Twitter from time to time. Yes, I was a part of #TeamMurray. Sad, but the English spirit in me lived on.

Wimbledon and Federer 

So, it had already been the second week of Wimbledon, and I must say that it had passed by me very quickly. I just didn't have the time to catch up with the tournament, and I just realised that Murray had a great chance to win it. Only Djorkovic stood a chance of stopping him. And also Del Potro.

It was sad to see how Federer had to bow down after providing us with great entertainment over the years. It unfortunately looked like his days at the top are numbered. Wimbledon was clearly suited for his style of play, and after winning it seven times, it was hard to see him taking another Grand Slam title.

Serena Williams also had a slip today, being outgunned by a lower ranked German player. And it was a great game as well.

As it stood at the moment, I would be betting on Murray.

Rooting

Guess who I was rooting for? Of course it would be the great Roger Federer going for another Wimbledon title. On his way was Andy Murray. And playing at home turf, of course the crowd would be behind Murray.

The start was more than Murray would have dreamt of. He broke Federer's serve in the first game, and held his own in the next game. But like all thoroughbred champion, Federer replied quickly. And we would be for a treat. Murray was really pushing it, and at times, Federer was just about hanging on. Great stuff!
