Tomas takes the 1st set 6-3.
morning emma.
some huge surprises in the last 2 days. I never thought Andy would lose this match. especially after snatching the first set.
and now Berdych has snatched the first set.
I guess this is the end of my good luck for the time being when it come to making a few predictions.
I had predicted a title for Federer but this is going to be huge for Berdy if he can snatch this title. it is going to give him a lot of confidence going forward.
the good old baron. we have not seen him in a while.
emma order some really cheap scotch for him. he has to be punished for not showing up at Camelot often enough.
and also take away his bicycle. he has to get around on foot at Camelot for 3 weeks.
I have to step out for a few hours. see you all later.
Emma's café blasted right past 14,000 views.
20,000 views coming up very soon.
I am looking forward to the day when you have a cool 1 million views here.
i believe that day will come one day.
thanks anikh.
your support for Camelot means a lot to us.
your support for Andy means a lot also. andy murray's popularity has been on a rise now for a year and there is no end in sight.
hopefully more andy murray fans will be coming our way in the near future.
Yes Anikh, thank you for being here. You are lovely. We'd love to have more fans like you.

Congratulations to all of us!
I wish people would just stop fighting over trivial matters like the mod or admin positions and actually be here and support their players. Nothing is stopping them from doing that. I can't believe that even in these days and age, people still care about such silly matters and won't mind ruining their friendships over this. I don't find any hope in humanity at times, really when I see things like that. Even when I watch a very nice interview or listen to a very nice lecture on youtube, I am still astounded by some of the comments I read just underneath. It feels like we really haven't made much progress since the ice age. The level of awareness is just appalling.
herc, if you make Anikh's sig a bit smaller we will be able to see the whole sig. Right now I can't see it and I have a pretty big screen.
Gulbis has a very high ball toss I noticed it the other day. Even higher than Berdych. Under windy conditions he will have a tough time holding his serve. Very risky high ball toss IMO. I am not sure why coaches don't address that particular aspect of the game. I've in fact seen it in quite a few players.
A couple of break of serves by Berdy and Federer in the meantime so back to on serve again, 4 all, 2nd set.
Federer has taken the 2nd set. He raised his game after getting broken first while Berdy decided to go mental for a bit.
Berdy has lost it. I guess after this some of the most notorious and worst Hell's prisoners will be on the loose tonight and for a while. Shame really that we have to live among them and not left with more choices.
I agree. Dimitrov is a showboat. Andy is too good a returner. The Big guys come good when they have to, outside of injuries and anomalies.
I don't like showboats. Total turnoff for me.
Yes, I do think he's a bit of a showboat. And he dates Sharapova and that confirms it even more.
Watching Dimi/Andy leftover right now.
I am out on the ocean. weather here today is simply superb.
Emma I am going to work on anikh's sig later this evening when I get home.
just 5 days to go now for Indian wells.
let's get fired up.
Andy will just have to work harder and harder and continue to build on the confidence. There's really no other short cut to it.
I am still hoping for some titles for Andy going into Wimbledon.
and I agree with you. he has keep putting in the hard yards in practice. good things will happen.
