I feel it will be Andy in 5; like Tsonga last year. I have been right with predictions so far(fingers crossed). Time is going to drag until Sunday.

Can't call this. Pressure of history on both sides. . If he loses? That's it. All over.
Total pish! |

Yep. Until August. |

I pick Andy, for sure. This time he will RISE from his chair and he will win it.

Hold on tight to your dream

Dream final... it's what I wanted even if Federer is a more difficult opponent here.
Yep, that's where I am too. I want to see the new-model Murray against the old warhorse. I think (hope) it will be close, but I'm passing on a prediction for once. I just think that this Wimbledon has a special feel to it, and i hope that that specialness has not peaked. If it involves a spectacular coming of age of Andy and the coup de grace of Roger the whole picture will be complete. I'll be plucking all my psychic strings to assist!!

At the start of the season during the Oz Open there's a thread somewhere with me predicting that the top 4 guys would each win a Slam this year - me thinking how equal they all might be. I said this.....
Oz Nole
RG Rafa
Wimby Smugfed
USO Andy
Hmmm. Would like to be wrong about Wimby. Come on Andy! Oh, and go and win USO as well (and Olympics, tho not persoanlly so bothered).

I don't really care if he wins or loses obviously I would prefer him to win. If he loses it isn't the end of the world. I would still support him. Always. He has had a very tough draw very tough. One of the hardest draws ever. He has fulfilled my expectations by reaching the final. I honestly can't stop crying. Remember the Queens exit? do you see how irrelevant that loss was. This is the best Andy has ever played.. maybe in his whole career. He can do it. It will be extremely difficult MON THE MURRAY teach the humble goat a lesson and knock him off his pedestal. You can do it mate  |

Having just listened to Radio 5 Live, Nigel did brill, but it pains me to say that having listened to those callers it is no wonder there is such anti English / Scottish feeling. That just makes me want to put my tick in the box come 2014. One guy stated he could never support anybody Scottish, he was from Yorkshire and I always thought it was the people in the South that didn't like us??

Please don't base your referendum vote on the opinions of tossers in a radio phone-in.  |

Absolutely brilliant. Had tears of joy at the end of that, only the 2nd time I can remember doing that in my life. Didn't think I'd get to see a British Wimbledon finalist in my lifetime. Think he'll probably get smashed in 3 by Federer again but you never know.
Really excited for this like everyone else. As long as I can remember I've always had these 4 big sporting dreams of things I hope to see in my lifetime and a British Wimbledon winner is 1 of them. For the record, 1 of them I've now experienced 3 times but the other 2 are about as far away now as they ever have been.

Alex is posting in the Murray part of the website - it must be a grand slam.  |

Your spot on. You said: Have a bit of a feeling the top 4 will share the Slams next year they're all so equally matched and all well able to beat each other. No-one else will get close so I'll say Oz Djok RG Rafa Wim Mr Smug but very happy to be wrong here! USO Andy Would be nice for Andy to get OZ then we can all relax and enjoy the ride even more than already. Andy and Djok will battle it out for No.1 with Rafa 3rd |
