Andy Murray won his match in style today at Queens Club London

he is coming to the net more which is great to see from a strong natural base-line player

A fabulous over-head back-hand volley springs to mind

Of course he is fab in the long base-line ralleys

Not a bead of sweat on him

like the way he throws his sweat bands into the crowd

Great guy ... ... ...

Andy Murray is in the final at Queens Club today, on BBC at 2pm

It will be his 5th final in this tournament, won 4 others

watched his semi-final against the very tall Cilic yesterday

Murray won 2 sets to 1

can't fault the guy at present

I believe he is no. 2 in the world

his wife was in the crowd as was his mum

Murray ties with a double knot his wedding ring on the outside of his left tennis shoe

Good Luck to him this afternoon

& for Wimbledon to come soon

Yes good luck to him Jane. I wont be watching though....it clashes with the European F1 on Ch4 and SkyF1

As much as I enjoy tennis......F1 comes first with me every time

Milos Raovic of Canada coached by the great John MacEnroe put up a good fight against Scotland's Andy Murray, but Murray coached by Ivan Lendl came from a set & a break down to win 2 sets to 1 ... Murray has made tennis history by winning the title 5 times ... good to see MacEnroe in the crowd as opposed to the commentary box

More details & brief highlights of the match off the BBC Sport website

Excited about Wimbledon @Anonymous? I sure am! We could create a thread when it starts.

Murray made the right decision to re-unite with Ivan Lendl as his coach. He had Amelie Mauresmo for a while...a decision I queried at the time. He did very well. I do find his form fluctuates a hell of a lot though. You never know which Andy Murray is going to turn up on the day...:smileywink:

Well Andy Murray is currently fighting to win the first set in his match against Tsonga....

And Roger Federer....was losing 2-0 before he staged his biggest comeback to win his match today...

Better hope that Murray does a Federer then....as he is currently 2 sets down and fighting to stay in the match... FGS...
