Dunno, Andy has been playing some fucking incredible tennis.
He's played a LOT of tennis in the run up to Wimbledon though, I wonder if that will takes it toll eventually.
This isn't Federer at 100%.
He stated that he was expecting qf at best.
Murray should be more worried about Roanic.
Can't see Federer beating Murray.
I don't think it will be a whitewash for Murray against Tsonga. I think Murray will win but drop at least 1 set.
Federer seems to be going through the levels and pulling off some great shots as Cilic seems to be tiring.

I have an unhealthy obsession with Serena Williams, she is a beast.
She does have a permanent nipple on whilst playing.
Eeeuuugghh. She's like a huge angry man who has had a partial sex change that's gone horribly wrong.
Agree with all that. Getting this far without dropping a set is damn good though, & may help if he does progress to the final as expected.
Match point Roger.
Game set & match.

Federer has always been a favourite of mine cos he never knows when he's beaten. A couple of matches between him & Nadal I've got on my server & have watched repeatedly.
I like Andy Murray for the same reason, when he's on form (mentally & physically) he has that same trait, & can get to shots that should be impossible to return, never mind win.

It's an irrational hatred, I know sportsman have got to have that inner belief to be the very best, but when you start believing your own hype and wearing your own branded stuff, It takes it to another level for me. I don't think Nadal or Djokovic would wear their own stuff.
Tsonga using his power to try to control the game from the baseline.
Shouldn't be that effective against Murray as he's more than capable of dealing with that, his eye is a bit off today though, missing a few forehand shots down the line that he could normally do with his eyes closed.

Tsonga playing some wonderful tennis. Great couple of points this game.
Set point Tsonga.
Set point Tsonga.
10-9 Murray first set tie break. Cracking match.
That was one of those shots he shouldn't have got to & won it!
That was an amazing first set. Ebbed & flowed throughout & some exceptional shots from both players. Tsonga is great when he's aggressive.
Steamrolled through that second set. 6-1.
I expect Tsonga to put up more of a fight this set.

Tsonga serving for the third set.
Really any Murray to win this set so it doesn't overrun the Wales match!
Tsonga two breaks down, 4-0 in the fifth. Switching to Wales as the main image & leave this in the corner now.
He lost the 5th game of the final set. He was trying too hard and putting the ball over the line when Murray was on the run. He then won the 6th to make it 5-1 and then Murray served the game out. Maybe the game against Insner finally caught up with him.
Turned out to be a great game overall. Tsonga is just in that group below the top 3 or 4 of current players. He's on par with Cilic, Del Potro, Berdych and Stanislaw. Needs a bit of luck to get to a final.

I thought Murray basically gave him that last service game, which makes sense cos he knew he could win it on his.
Tsonga has improved a lot, his all round game looks very strong now, combined with his power off the baseline & serve & he's formidable.
I think he's just lacking a little flexibility (physically) at times compared to the rest due to his wide frame, which slows down his ability to get to difficult shots on the turn.

Cilic,Wawrinka and Del Potro have all won slams so I wouldn't put him in their league.
He's probably in the Gasquet,Berdych bracket.
Lovely players to watch when firing and perennial quarter/semi finalists but just don't have the mentality to win slams.
Warwinka and Murray have the same number of slams so maybe I should downgrade Murray to that group. I'm only kidding there as Murray is a cut above them.
I'm coming from the angle of I'd have no idea who to bet on should any of that group play head to head. Jo has played Stan 7 times and the score is 3-4. Using that as a barometer there isn't much between them.
For today's Ladies Semi final I've gone for Serena to win 2-0 and Kerber to win 2-1.

Federer a set down. Can't keep up with Raonic's serve and volley.
