Indeed he is but I must admit Murray's playing very well .... still sulky faced though and without the charm etc etc etc of Rafa!  |

Let us not allow the discussion of this illustrious game to degenerate into a display of innermost private sexual feelings.
Innermost? It seems to me that the Rafael-ites' feelings are outermost, and not private at all  They've kept it pretty clean up 'til now. Degenerate is in the eye of the beholder. And you'll never convince me that sports isn't about sex much of the time, anyway, whether overt or subliminal. |

I'm sure you're right, R-M - there has to be some reason other than fashion that Sports Illustrated's swimsuit issue has such high sales.

I'm poised ready to pounce on him! Rafa obviously still not back to his magnificent best .. shouldn't have cut his hair! |

Oh dear...SG, it's not polite to gloat - just a little warning in advance Remember I am your 'original traditionalist'; sport for sport's sake and all that. Murray did play well, but Rafa's injury was the deciding factor. The commentator should not have said,'If anybody can come back from 2 sets down it has to be Rafa.' He tempted Fate, and Fate came to court! I hope the guy is soon better; there is a lot of tennis coming up. |

I think I love you, SG! You are such a gentleman. Please tell me you look like Inspector Morse and you will have won me over completely! |

Awwww, shucks....now you are embarrassing me! Thankfully beauty is but skin deep. Having once met John Thaw (and wife Sheila Hancock) on King's Cross Railway station, I can safely say I don't have Morse's looks, nor his brains, only his luck with the ladies.(I shall have been married 45 years come March, so you will gather I am jesting.) Back to the tennis. Delicately poised at 1 set apiece.  |

If you've been married for 45 years, it seems to me that you have luck with one very important lady!  |
