Yay! :cheer: :cheer: Go, Andy! :star: :star:
What a difference a few weeks make . . . Olympic Gold and now, US Open! At long last, he has found his feet. o/

I'm really happy Andy's managed to win a Grand Slam! He has improved so much during the past few months, and hopefully this will give him the confidence to go and win more!

and learns to speak more clearly instead of just groaning about.

I'm sure he played well but its just some of his on/off court mannerisms that bother me.
As such not his greatest fan.

I have the feeling he will never win you over. I saw him play twice in the Olympics -- singles and doubles-- and he was very kind to his partner Laura Robson. The crowd really warmed to him but I fear it would be lost on you, Sparrow.

if a 3 year old acted like murray, i would tell her to grow up.

murray´s undoubted talented at accurately hitting a fur-covered rubber ball is no excuse for his terrible tantrums.

neither is the fact that he belongs to a defeated race (the scots).
