Go, Andy! Bring it home for the Brits!

Yeah, I'm British enough to know who to root for today. LOL

Truthfully, I haven't gotten up this early for tennis in ten years. So, I suppose I'm a little invested in this match, myself.

I have not been this invested in a match since Agassi won in 1992. I've been verklempt about this for hours. Well done, Andy!

I know. I was thinking at the beginning, with all his running around at the baseline that he would be exhausted by Set 2...but he did a great job in the end. And, apparently, he was concentrating so much he doesn't remember the actual game. LOL

But, yes...YAY! And well done, Andy!

That has to be one of the most amusing post-game interviews I've ever seen!

And on another note, I'm a little concerned that Novak may have done himself some damage. How many times did he go down during that match? I completely lost count.

The boy did good :)

Very well, indeed. And it is refreshing for me to see people actually playing tennis again. I stopped watching because of the ace-game that had taken over, where all you had to do was blast the ball past your opponent at speed to win. Boring to watch. This was very good tennis.

Oh yes! Finally a bit of sunshine and a British Wimbledon champ. There's gonna be some hangovers by the morning :)

I followed the last few games of this on my iphone, while sitting in a hotel garden in the Italian Alps - a little surreal, but fun.
