I think that, had the match not been postponed tonight, it would have gone on much longer--both of those guys were just way too tired to even think about breaking serve. The scenes at Wimbledon today were surreal.

Murray looking top notch this evening, crucial that he won the 2nd set tie-break. Going to be a fantastic semi-final against Nadal. The other semi-final will be excellent too, Djokovic has suddenly hit a rich vein of form on the grass and Berdych is playing the best he's ever played. I hate to say it but Federer looked a spent force up against the heaviness of Berdych's groundstrokes. Federer is going to have to work much much harder if he's to win any more majors in his career because he's in a rut at the moment.

What a shame Murray was in the same side of the draw as Nadal and not Federer. Murray vs Nadal would have been an awesome final.

Murray is playing very well, but just can't see him beating Nadal on Friday.

The two things Murray can try and seize upon to win the match are Nadal's inconsistent and weak serve, and Nadal's fitness after two 5-set matches last week and a few slight injury tweaks. Having said that Nadal is a class act and his topspin forehand is unplayable shot when he finds his range. Nadal is rightly the slight favourite but a Murray win would not be out of turn. It'll be enjoyable no matter the result.

Hoping for a few spots of rain early doors on Friday as i won't be home from work till 5 and don't wanna miss any of this.

Could be a classic.

Not going to happen i'm afraid, they've got a roof now don't forget.

That second set was superb. Djokovic had thrown it away, but broke back at 5-6 brilliantly. And facing 4 set points in the tie break to draw level and then bottle it with a double fault!

Berdych 2 sets up now, Djokovic thinking everything's against him, can't see him coming back.

Loving this match so far! :D

Wouldn't read too much into a Murray break early on either as Nadal is so far ahead it makes little difference to him.

P.S. Great to see Serena in the final again! :D COME ON SERENA!!!
