To jest na dobrej drodze do pierwszego razu Trzeci set bardzo słaby, Murray się podniósł. Oby w 4 było już normalnie.

Szkot 5/2*

3/1 Murray w tie-breaku.

Wspaniały tie-break. Chyba najlepszy w turnieju. Zwycięzcą okazał się Federer.

Roger

16

Ale nerwy były...

Graty

Gratulacje dla Rogera.

Andy spalił się w finale jak sucha zapałka, nie pierwszy raz zresztą. Tracę nadzieję na to, że kiedyś wyrośnie z niego klasowy zawodnik z mentalnością ściany.

Szkoda mi się zrobiło Andrew podczas ceremonii .
Naprawdę wielki ciężar spoczywa na tym człowieku, żal, że nie może sobie jakoś z tym poradzić.

Kompletnie nie zgadzam się z tym, że Murray spalił się psychicznie.
Federer był dziś o klasę lepszy, Szkot nie miał żadnych argumentów przeciwko Szwajcarowi.

Lufy po 210 kmh wracały pod nogi Ryżego, Roger grał znakomicie z baseline, niezły serwis, troszkę gorzej z poruszaniem się, ale zwalam to na karb sporego stresu.

Mimo trudności, Wielki Mecz i Wielki Turniej Rogera Federera.

Dzisiaj return byl na swietnym poziomie, podobnie jak serwis, ktory seiadl jedynie w trzecim secie. Andy wyprobowal backhand Federera i Szwajcar zdal sprawdzian wytrzymalosci zarowno fizycznej i psychicznej. Na poczatku Murray chcial chyba wziac Feda na dlugie wymiany, co nie przynioslo mu oczekiwanego skutku. Drugi set to popis Taty, pokazal w nim wielki luz oraz swietne zagrania.
Mecz stal na naprawde wysokim tenisowym poziomie. A najwiecej emocji dostarczyl oczywiscie TB, ktorego Andy powinien wygrac.
Żal Szkota, bo po ceremonii bylo widac, ze naprawde zalezalo mu na wygranej. Beda z niego ludzie. Na razie zasluguje na miano drugiej rakiety swiata, co w przyszlosci pewnie zmieni sie na number 1.

Federer najlepszy w Melbourne
Roger wygrał ten mecz zasłużenie, wydaję mi się, że Murray trochę jednak nie wytrzymał presji, 2 pierwsze sety to pokaz baloniarstwa z jego strony, nie był to ten sam ofensywny Murray co z poprzednich meczów, TB fenonenalny, alle w nim więcej zimnej krwi zachował Federer
Żal mi sie zrobiło Szkota, widać, że nosi na sobie wielki ciężar presji ze strony rodaków, a Fed mało elegancki nie pocieszał Ryżego, tak jak Nadal pocieszał Szwajcara w tamtym roku

Zanim o finale, odrabiam wczorajsze zaległości.

Down Under Diary, Day 13

Murray On Target To Earn £50m A Year
There is more than just Grand Slam glory on the line for Andy Murray when he faces Roger Federer in the Australian Open final tomorrow. A report in The Times suggests that Murray could become one of Great Britain’s highest-earning sportsman with victory in Melbourne setting him on course to earn £50 million a year.
“Murray is prepared and playing a brand of thrilling tennis that has the experts drooling and the marketing men rubbing their hands,” writes Kevin Eason. “Victory in Melbourne would turn him into one of Britain’s highest-earning sportsmen, on target for £50 million a year, with Simon Fuller, the pop music guru and chief executive of the 19 Entertainment agency that has helped David and Victoria Beckham to a fortune, lining up deals around the world.
“'Let’s face it, he will be unique,' Nigel Currie, a director at Brand Rapport, said. 'We have had Formula One champions and boxing champions but not a credible tennis champion in generations.'”

Federer Out To Set The Record Straight
There are only four active players against whom Roger Federer has a losing head-to-head record and the Swiss is eying the Australian Open final as a chance to go someway towards levelling his 4-6 career series with Andy Murray.
“I played him maybe at times when I wasn't at my very, very best,” said the World No. 1. “We had some close matches on many occasions where I thought I was in control and I ended up giving the match away by making errors of my own. That was definitely because of his play and the way he plays. So I think the head to head could be quite different.
“He's one match away [from winning his first major singles title]. I'll make sure it won't happen,” warned the Swiss.


Murray’s Grandparents Will Watch From Dunblane
While many residents in Dunblane will gather together to watch the Australian Open final in the Dunblane Hotel, which has been granted a license to open from 8 am on Sunday morning, Andy Murray’s grandparents, Roy and Shirley Erskine, are planning to watch the action in peace at a friend’s house. “We don’t allow anyone else in the house when we’re watching a match like that, because it is a very personal thing,” Roy said.

Star Support For Murray
Writing in her blog for the LTA web site, Andy Murray’s mother, Judy, confirmed the World No. 4 had received support from star names ahead of Sunday’s Australian Open final.
“Got a good luck text from Anthony Hamilton, Lewis's dad ahead of the final on Sunday, which was nice.
“He knows exactly what it’s like supporting your offspring in major events. Chris Hoy also texted to confirm he is coming to support on Sunday. He's on a training camp in Perth (Oz) and his team manager agreed he could take the day off. Nice one.”

How To Relax Before a Grand Slam Final
When asked by reporters how he would prepare for Sunday’s Australian Open final against Roger Federer, Andy Murray stressed that relaxation was the key with having two days off since his semi-final win over Cilic.
“Because you have a couple of days, you don't want to be over thinking the match, playing it over too many times in your head. You just need to try and not think about it, if that's possible, get away from it. [I’ve] been watching some movies, some DVDs, some comedy DVDs to get your mind off of it. I actually don't know the name of the movie [I watched]. It was on after the tennis last night. Then I've been watching Gavin & Stacey, a British comedy series I've been watching from back home.”
The 22 year old also confirmed via Twitter that coach, Miles Maclagan, will be serving up dinner the night before the final, as he did on the eve of the Scot’s semi-final win over Marin Cilic on Thursday.
“Got some great sushi from nobu last night, my favourite restaurant by far!! Miles on dinner tonight not quite the same”

Bryans Not Planning To Stop Anytime Soon
Bob and Mike Bryan won their eighth Grand Slam doubles title on Saturday with victory in the Australian Open final. The Americans are just three major titles behind leaders Todd Woodbridge and Mark Woodforde for Grand Slam championships won by a team in the Open Era and are optimistic of catching up their idols.
“That's on our mind obviously,” said Bob. “But it's a few Sundays away before we get to that point. The Woodies are our idols. To be considered in the same league with those guys is an honour itself. I imagine if we stay healthy, we might touch that mark.”
“We'd love to keep going as long as possible,” said Mike. “I think we can. Bodies are still feeling good. Not taking a lot of Advil, which is nice. Doubles is a game where you can play up until you're almost 40. We're loving what we're doing. We still have a lot of goals we want to achieve. So we're going to keep doing it.”
Added Bob: “We got four years on the K Swiss contract, so you'll see us for four years at least (laughter).”
