The British Media in the last few months has had a damaging effect on Murray for sure. He was celebrated more than deserved and now he is paying for it. He must have been talking about his preparation for the slam than boasting about his chances against Federer.

But it will be less irritating reading the sports pages with a pause in Murray mania.

We'll have to see if Nole can handle the pressure. He definitely could win the whole tournament. That would be quite the story of redemption. Interesting!

I know I had my "drooling moment" yesterday watching Tsonga change during his match with Gonzalez. LOL, well, shirtless episodes can have this power over us. Over me they do, at least.

I really won't be that surprised if he gets the trophy. But after yeaterday, I think Nadal is also looking good to take the whole thing. This last major is getting more and more interesting.

Technically, Rafa may not be assured of the No 2 spot yet. Rumour has it that if Djokovic wins and Rafa loses next round, Djoko = No 2. ^ At least Safina made two finals this year.

He's got a lot to show before he can truly be considered one of the greatest. And yes, I am VERY pleased that the rankings are getting back to where they should be - one more little change to go ;-) Rafa is back, watch out Rog, you might need some more of those Kleenex...Sorry, I know, that's a bit evil - bwahahaha ;-) Murray is a good player but I can't wait for the British press to get real and cool down the hype around him.
