I've watched more this year than I have in a long time
Watching the matches in HD makes a big difference as well - the picture is so much clearer  |

That match with Murray was brilliant last night although he could have won it in the fourth set
I'm not a big fan of his either Kellie after the comments he made the other year BUT he's a very good player and it would be good to have a BRITISH winner of Wimbledon again |

just looked up who was the last British male winner at Wimbledon. To my surprise I found Frederick John Perry won the Men's Singles Championship in 1936, since then no other British man has won the event. |

And i dont think it will happen this year either, it will probably be a Roddick, Federer final |

Don't dismiss him yet Kellie - they've played each other 8 times and Murray has won 6 times |
