i couldn't believe he was favourite ..... then again england r usually half what their odds should be for the major football tournament s !!!

I disagree; he was favourite based on his form over recent months compared to the other top seeds and this did look a good possibility for his 1st grand slam...but once again he exhibits the great Scottish ethos of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory!!! :D

sorry mate that's bollocks ..... NOBODY else with his record would have been the bookies favourite !!

his form over recent months was in 1 week tournaments and usually in best of 3 sets. grand slams r a completely different animal .... a 2 week tournament and best of 5 ... now check out Murray's record in Grand Slams. there's NO WAY he should have been favourite !!

you said bollocks!!!! 10 baht in the box... :lol:

So why was he favourite? Had the Scottish mafia taken over the bookies?

It doesn't matter that a lot of the tourneys were 1 week ones; The odds come from recent form; and over the last few months he has been playing better and more consistently than Nadal or Federer.

But anyway, it doesn't really matter; he fecked it up good and proper, and until he can cope with opponents changing their strategy within matches he's not going to win a grand alam anytime soon.

But, on the bright side, at least he's already 5 times the player Henman ever was!! :D

bollocks doesn't count .... only if the swear censor sticks a few ** in does it count as a swear word !! :D:D:D

actually he was "probably" only favourite in the UK/Britain .... and odds don't always come from recent form (although they usually do) amount of money wagered (or expected to be wagered) can affect the odds .... hence the crazy odds for england in every footie tourney !!

Federer = Crybaby.

yep..Roger Federer acted very inappropriately after the finals. it was a huge moment for Rafa. why should he have to feel bad if Roger lost? This incident shifted the everyone's attention from Rafa towards Roger. Everyone looses at some point in their career. But, they don't go about crying in public. Roger needs to play much better than yesterday to win any of the other grand slams. Many other sportsmen have been greater than him and he should understand that other players have their own dreams as well!!
