Out against Murray
Yet another scintillating, exciting and very brave game from the racquet of our Roger – unfortunately this time the result could not match his tennis. He has lost to Andy Murray 4-6, 7-6(5), 3-6, 7-6(2), 2-6 in an absorbing and enthralling game of tennis.
This time it did not look as though Murray would be the loser right from the start of the first set which he took comfortably 6-4. Having said that our champ made him fight hard for his victory by taking the 2nd and 4th sets with tiebreaks. After a really hard fought battle with Murray dominating most of the match it was only our Roger’s brilliance that kept him alive – that and an indomitable spirit that refuses to give in when most other players would be swamped. By the 5th set though it seemed our champ had given his all and Murray took only 35 minutes from a 4 hour match to close out the final set 6-2. From the cheering during the match it seemed at times as though he was playing the match in Basel and not in Melbourne plus Roger was given a standing ovation when he left the court. Murray now faces Djokovic in the final on Sunday.

I will not be watching the final as there is no flair to their games like yours.
good luck cant wait for you next tournament. love you Helen xxxxx
They both are playing good, but long rallies, and Andy has begun with his mouthering, or what ever you call it, dropping the F-word, etc.
Seriously, even last years Novak/Rafa final was more exciting than this.
No breaks yet.

You are not in it. You should have been. There is a different vibe. Not the same as if you would have been there. I mean borring in the sence of they keep hitting the ball waiting for the other one to make a mistake.
But still congratulations to Novak and Andy for making it to the final. (Well even I would be in the final with their draw!!). Hope Andy wins, so it would not be in vain that you lost to him. Love you.
