American TV is truly bizarre though. In the 3rd game of that last set, they cut to a flashback video of Fred Perry between points. I'd be infuriated if they ever did that on UK TV, but it would never happen. They also seem to cram in as many adverts as they can, cutting back to the tennis at the last possible moment. Even Sky get back to it when the umpire first calls time!

yes, I'm glad I wasn't listening to the American commentary as would have sworn repeatedly at the telly. Previously I had a theory that Muz was unbeatable in slams UNTIL some fool mentioned Fred Perry. There are a few examples e.g. Muz at wimbledon 2011 - playing great and one set up on Rafa - someone mentions Perry and then.....! Glad that ghost has been laid.

Oh,Teejay,I SO hope you're right!!That would be beyond amazing.(And if you get it right,I may start perstering you for predictions about every match lol!)
Got any feelings about Wimbledon or USO,by any chance?!

Funny you should ask Dani, do you fancy a Wimbledon win in 2013? I've got a feeling Andy is going to win the AO and Wimbledon. My instincts aren't so clear about the USO, but I'd love him to successfully defend the title, so I'll see what I can do lol.

In the event of Andy pulling off my predictions I may just die of shock lol. Seriously though, if he does do it I'll happily predict any amount of matches lol.

Just reading the thread back myself.

How utterly amazing was that love game up 3-2 in the final set? Just lost two games in a row, memories of the 2nd set firmly in everyone's mind, absolutely massive game. Everyone on here crapping themselves. He delivers four unreturnable serves and puts the pressure right back on Djokovic (who he then breaks and the rest is history). Really delivered when it absolutely mattered.

That game was stunning, I agree completely. I watched most of the match again the other day and it struck me how Petch and Fleming couldn't believe how Andy served at that point, right when he needed it.

In the same set, I love that point for Andy to go 2-0 up. Andy absolutely under siege and resisting Djokovic brilliantly. Brilliant play.

OOOOH,do I fancy it?Do I what!That's the one I'd love him to win more than anything now!Yay,that's great to hear-I've got a high regard for your feelings after the USO  yay

Let's hope Andy keeps proving you right!Would be rude not to,wouldn't it,when you kept the faith so staunchly during the USO.Maybe your instincts about the '13  USO will become clearer closer to the time? Think

No no no-you can be as shocked as you like,but you have to battle through-if your instincts are right,not only will I be wanting to avail of your predicting talents,Andy should hire you to do it for him too lol!Plus you'll have to be here to celebrate with us all!! Very Happy

It would be rude of him, I agree lol.

I think I'm fuzzy about the USO simply because I was so sure this year. I just knew! It was really strange, and a bit surreal, joyously so, when he did it. I'm sure it will become clearer at some point in 2013 if he is going to do it again, and I'll tip you off first lol.

I don't suppose Andy could employ me to predict matches. There must be rules against that sort of thing lol.

I just hope I'm right. I'm really convinced about the AO, because Andy has so often played so well there, and has been to the final twice. That semi was close this year too. He seems so much more positive on the court now too, and that has to help. Also, and most obviously, this year, should he find himself in the final, he'll have a positive experience, a couple of positive experiences, to draw from.

As for Wimbledon, Andy played well last year, very well. I know it must be pressurised for him, with it being at home, so to speak, but I think he's always coped with that superbly. I think he'll be quite well supported too, now that he has won a major. Andy's grass court game is superb, really great. I think he's better on the grass than Djokovic to be honest, so I think he has a great chance. Again, the USO experience will surely help him.

Teejay I have the same strong feeling as you that Andy will win the AO and Wimbledon. A couple of weeks back I dreamt  that Andy also won the French Open as well and did what Nole was trying to do last year.That would be out of this world, but stranger things have happened!

You're not alone TJ and Michelle - the astrologer who predicted Andy's breakthrough year this year has posted this:

'Ok this is how I see 2013. Andy is going to have a stellar year, and astrologically I can see him winning the Australian and the holy grail, Wimbledon in 2013.'

Let's hope you and he are right - fingers crossed!

I just hope that if he doesn't live up to these ramped up expectations people don't start getting on his back again.
