CAMELOT FANTASIES

well I finally got to catch the andy murray vs rafa battle last night.

you are 100% spot on. andy was simply brilliant yesterday. he came to battle with all his heart and with all his might.


its good to see him back in this manner and fashion. it leads me to confirm my belief that he will do quite well at Wimbledon.

Wasn't that match awesome? They were going at it, for real. I'll bet the guys in the locker room were like, WTH? This did not look like the Rafa we've seen since the USO. The tennis was just sublime, and the way he notched it up at the end was spellbinding.

It made me appreciate Andy even more. He's always been one of my favorites, but he reached a whole new level with me, because this wasn't even his best surface, but he brought it anyway. In earlier reports he was saying that he was looking forward to playing Rafa because he wanted to test where his level was. Mission accomplished. Andy Murray, OBE will be a factor at RG this year.

What a major showdown we should have:

Rafe trying to win 10 crowns (otherworldly).
Novak trying to complete the career slam.
Andy being one of the contenders.
Federer coming back rested.
Stan trying to prove that AO wasn't a fluke.

And all the rest trying to make a miracle for themselves.

And did you see how he mauled Dmitrov? I'm not a fan of Dmitrov. I thought he played the match with the wrong mindset. I feel like he is trying to live up to the hype, instead of playing his natural game. He was showboating and trying to impose him, but he took himself out of the match by trying to hit spectacular winners for people to ooh and ahh over. At some point he should have played more safely and when for the winners in a more practical manner.

But anyway, you think Rafa will do well at Wimbledon? I can't wait to hear why.
