I hate it when players not only have to battle their opponents, but also battle the elements! And N.Y. has had enough rain. The U.S. needs its rain in the Midwest right now! The only good thing is sometimes rain will come and knock the temperature down. But then other times it just temporarily knocks the temperature down and then the heat comes back worse than ever! And the starting and stopping of play is awful when the rain comes and goes. I had wanted a cloudy day with the temperature down, but no rain. Actually what I really wanted was a night session!

Re: 2012 - August - American Life
The good news is he's on first so he's at least in a better position to get his match done - assuming he can win.

Re: 2012 - August - American Life
Well that was a weird match. Tosses that ended up 2 metres from the server, chairs and racquet bags blowing onto the court, debris constantly interrupting points. Was relieved Murray managed to pull out the tiebreak from 5-2 down...I was pretty tired of watching that sort of tennis by then.

And he got lucky because there's a major storm front coming to New York right now. Stupid organizers should've played both matches simultaneously but no, now we got yet another Monday final.

I'm thankful neither player got blown off the court--I have never seen such wind at a Tennis Tournament  Go Andy

Re: 2012 - August - American Life
Sounds like as much of an ordeal to watch as it was to follow on livescore.
Well done Andy!!!!

Re: 2012 - August - American Life

Re: 2012 - August - American Life
Many of them will hate him no matter what he does or who he does it to. You almost just have to take pleasure in their discomfort.

Re: 2012 - August - American Life
They are scared. 3 'major' finals in 2 months is just too much to take for the haters.

It's enough to make anyone support him just to annoy them
Has anyone seen any signs of the final being shown on non-Murdoch TV in the UK yet? (i.e. anything I can get at on Freeview), or will I have to listen to it on Radio 5?

It will be on Sky Sports so it's radio or find a live stream on the internet.
