Always enjoy the break from football during the summer, some decent tennis being played at queens this afternoon! Simon has just taken Anderson to a third set. Looked like he was dead and buried after the first set.

Anyone watching the Davis Cup Finals?  Kyle Edmund is smashing it against Goffin at the moment.

 

6-3 / 4-1 so far, hopefully he can keep it up

He couldn't... ran out of steam after the 2nd set.

Surely Murray can be talked about as one of our greatest ever sports persons.

 

Another brilliant achievement.

Absolutely. What a shot to win it too.

Aye. But that's been the case since 2012 when he won a slam. A knighthood is a cert. It's a matter of when and not if. To drag a team as shite as GB to winning the Davis Cup is something that the majority of people can't even understand how hard it was. Please for Jamie too.

 

Dunblane won the Davis Cup.

Well done Johanna Konta, came from a set down to win 4-6, 6-4 and 8-6.

 

First British woman to reach the last eight since 1983!

She's about as British as Aljaz Bedene but aye, good on her. Punching above her weight.

Well done to both Murray and more surprisingly Konta into the last four 

Lost his serve straight away against Raonic. Gone with serve since. 3-2 Raonic.

Mental how fast his serve is!

Lost the first set, hardly a disaster seeing as he's done that 3 times and still made the final of the Australian open... he still needs to get some momentum going quickly though.

Listening on 5live, sounds intense!

 

Just levelled it 1-1. Won the second set 7-5.

About to lose the 3rd.

Aye, the Canadian looking very good. Not a case of bottling it from Murray, just the boy playing very well. Hopefully Murray can turn it round. Watching it on Eurosport like, and they're following on the BBC tradition of ruining the experience by fucking about with the viewing angle on the deuce serve. Showing the first few shots of the rally at net height from the back of the court behind the returner. Impossible to see anything. F'n irritating.

Aye that winds me up too. Makes it seem like the players are bound to miss.

Canadian goes off court for a Barry Robson, and returns a little bit worse. Murray breaks. Looking good for going the whole way. Pain in the airse as I haven't had time for a shower yet because it's been on all morning.

Aye. And I haven't had time to do any work at work! 

Decider it is then.....just in time for my lunch

All Andy. Raonic "injured" but I think he's just knackered.

Agreed, sounds like Raonic is knackared rather than injured. Andy does well with 5 setters. His fitness levels are top notch.

Yep. Murray's a machine, this boy just isn't quite there yet. Double break in the last, should be over shortly. Another final for Murray, fuckin impressive. He's one hell of an athlete.

Finished him off nicely. Hopefully the wife will give me peace to watch the final on Sunday.

I've low expectations if I'm honest. An extra 24 hours rest for Djokovic is massive.

He would have loved the fact they went to 5 sets.

Well done Kerber! Big shock and about time too
