Tennis

It's easy to forget the Nole absolutely owned Nadal last year.

about 10 mins away from seeing murray get taught a lesson, going to have to cheekily watch it in the kitchen at wokr

Murray coming back. 1-1, going into 3rd set. Djokovic doesn't look good but if he comes back and win in the next 2 sets, I won't surprised.

Right now, Murray looks the better player.

Novak looks exhausted, and he's limping. Let's see what Murray does to take advantage of that.

It's a tactic by Novak. He does that everytime. Against Ferrer as well, and boom! he won.

So he thinks he's an actor. Great, now we're going to see his smug face in tv shows and movies now.

And Murray takes the third set.

Impressive game by Murray. Honestly thought he'll lose it when it was 3-3, but he went on till 7-3 that was good.

Murray has 17 forehand winners compared to Novak's 6.

He's in the next Expendables movie.

Such a great contest, but Murray really should not have been broken so easily at the start of this set. Some bad errors.

The real problem is that there is going to be a next Expendables movie.

Okay. I'm going to bed. It's 4:30 in the morning.

Djokovic wins 7-5 in the fifth set after almost 5 hours. What. A. Match.

Gutted for Andy Murray, proved that he does belong at this level but Djokovic proved why he is the world's best and probably an all time great winning the key, key points. I think Murray beats Federer and Rafa tonight.

Djokovic will probably win the final in 4 sets, although I hope not. Murray, with Lendl in his corner, should hopefully learn from this and not slump like he did last year and become stronger.

I have feeling that Djoker will end up beating Nadal once again and show's his smug Djoker face

really surprised at his bottle. when he lost the first and went a break down in the second i thought it was over. as long as he can kick on from this, it is a very good sign. murray still doesnt quite have it to mix it with the top 3, he hasnt worked out how to win the crucial points against them. hopefully lendl will help him kick on, huge year ahead for murray, may define his career

Sharapova vs Azarenka. Who do you think will win. Hopefully, it's Maria.

Whoever wins, we lose.

Clijsters and Kvitova are better players, but each lost to each of our finalists today.

I can't concentrate on the match with all the crazy grunting and whimpering.

Maria's throwing away the first set. So many opportunities to make winners, yet she gives the ball to Victoria.

Sharapova's shitness is making Azarenka look good.

Terrible match, no thrill whatsoever.

Stopped watching at the beginning of the second set.

Anyone see this? Amazing tekkers:

He is better than Mannone.
