Andy Murray reached his first Grand Slam quarter-final after bravely battling past Richard Gasquet. The Scot looked certain to lose when Gasquet served for the match in the third set but he recovered for a stunning 5-7 3-6 7-6 (7-3) 6-2 6-4 victory. The light was tough at the end and I wanted to try to finish the match.InterviewMurray's miracle shot
That was the best moment I've ever had on a tennis court. To come back from two sets to love and win it is an awesome feeling. The crowd got behind me just when I needed it and to have them behind me was a privilege.
I think he (Gasquet) got a bit nervous towards the end of third set. I had to keep fighting, he was completely outplaying me and once I won that third set his head went down and I kind of ran away with it. Andy Murray will now face world no-2 Rafael Nadal in the quarter-finals on Wednesday ( discuss). |

Indeed >> I had a gut feeling today that Murray will make the finals of Wimbledon, as many of you may have witnessed, my gut almost always ends up right  |

Weird Mark... I didn't see that quote from you earlier... but I do just have an instinctive feeling that he will win this tournament. Probs end up with egg on my face... but nevertheless, it's what I feel. Hoping I'm right, of course!! |

Anyone find it amusing that Murray has been referred to as 'the Scot' by the BBC until today where he is now being referred to as 'the Briton'  |

Same with the football - in the days when Scotland did well, they were always referred to as the British team! Then folk wonder why we get peed off! |
