What a legend. See if Nadull is still at the business end of Grand Slams at Fed's age.

I can't see how anyone who watched yesterday's semis can argue for equal prize money for the women.

Outside of Slams men still earn far more because the ATP and WTP tours are separate and the ATP tour is the one that puts bums on seats.

I still don't see why women can't play 5 sets, at the very least play 5 sets in the final. Has there been some sort of study done to say that women's bodies can't handle 5 sets? Genuine question because I can't see any other reason why they should only play best of 3.

And Fed chokes serving to take it into a 4th set tie breaker with 2 double faults having otherwise been dominant on serve.

Now 2 sets all but Fed has had an injury time out. Hard to see him breaking Raonic's serve in the last set.

His last chance at a major goes up the Thames, and it's the moose-wrangler v the haggis-sucker for the final.

Murray should eat Dudley Do-right tomorrow...he won't get a better chance any time soon either.

And didn't Murray look thrilled about it......

The man makes Jimmy Anderson look happy and light-hearted in comparison.
