Re: Wimbledon thread
Feel a bit sorry for this Reynolds lad. The game can't finish soon enough for him. He's getting absolutely tatered by Djokovic. Even BWFCI could confidently predict a straight sets victory here.

You could try Moray or Murrey but I think your version is the tried and tested.

Janowicz just served at 139 mph. Looks the business, this lad.

Re: Wimbledon thread
Really good player. Will be top ten soon i wager. Probably the biggest threat to murray in his half.
Also, just checked the world record - there's some guy in the futures tour who serves at 164mph :O

Re: Wimbledon thread
Murray takes the first set 6-2. Playing sound, but I'd like to see a few more first serves a bit better. Easy to talk I suppose. Early days.

Murray is absolutely taking the fecking piss out of Robredo at this current moment in time.
It's complete domination.
At the moment at least. Things can change of course.

Oh don't be coming around here with your caveats, disclaimers and damage limitation exercises. You'll be citing force majeure next.BWFC_Insane wrote: It's complete domination.

Re: Wimbledon thread
I doubt it - I mean you've been watching Wimbledon since an Englishman won it and still cannot recognize complete domination. Shocking.TANGODANCER wrote:Do forgive my lack of tennis expertise.

Re: Wimbledon thread
Straight sets generally refers to a gubbing, and it was far from that. Djokovic winning in straight sets last night was a gubbing, but Murray had it far from his own way in the 2nd and 3rd (Didn't see the 1st).

Re: Wimbledon thread
Robredo played at his absolute maximum. And Murray still won comfortably in about 3rd gear would be my assessment.Bruce Rioja wrote:Straight sets generally refers to a gubbing, and it was far from that.

1st set was an absolute crushing. Robredo stepped it up after that, but still barely a contest.
