Seeks inspiration from a guy that hasn't won Wimbledon vs guy that has. Flawed logic.

Our mentality in a nut shell yea anything else is a bonus,once the underdog always the underdog irrelevant of how people think differently,a bit like,no,a lot like our national football team

I’m going to be broken tomorrow, but glad I stayed up for that.

Superstar.

I am still broken. 5am bedtimes aren’t as easy as they used to be.

I still don’t care though. What a player!

Same, luckily working from home today, so been a bit easier to recover.

At least the final is at a decent time, on a decent day.

Fourth round.

Still incredible.

Hopefully Emma makes the Red tops in this country wait all night, so they can fucking sweat over their Ronaldo back pages.

She wins, and it's the only story in town.

Sorry!! you don't need to you don't need to be a maths genius to figure out that with 16 people left you aren't in the QF!!!!! (I guess unless you are playing doubles!).
I agree in terms of the story, there is also a feel-good factor Ronaldo is an all time great to be sure and normally it would be the only story, but this is a final between two unseeded teenagers! Ronaldo is about sport the last 15 years.... these two might be sport for the next 15....

I remember Boris Becker winning at 17.
My childhood memories are full of hot summers watching Wimbledon as a kid with my mum.

He certainly did lead the life didn't he....love the cupboard shag story too.

In many respects he reminds me of Maradona huge talent, but also someone that got their monies worth out of their body during their life!
