Roger is a broken man, he should have challenged there

Every shot Muraay hits is going for him. Federer knows the game is up alright.

Outside the Tennis and Athletics, what are GB's other medal hopes tody? Pendleton is one , yeah?

Louis Smith in the pommel horse right now. He's up against it though as the world number 1 (Hungarian) just did a near perfect routine.

SHe just went past when she chose there. Nothing Gnidenko could do about it.

Does anyone know what time the 100m semi finals are on?

Possible momentum shift there, think that was the first break point Murray hasn't taken.

Guy:Incognito

The Russians really need a better designer for the tracksuits next time out.

Girl is a loose term here, well known druggie Christine O'muireheartaigh hope to God she doesn't win, not because she is British but because she is a drugs cheat, same goes for Gatlin and Chambers in the 100m.

when ever i seem to switch over to the RTE coverage there seems to be an ad break, delayed coverag or repeating an event, only starting to show 3rd set of tennis now, guess its back to BBC.

As good as Murry is playing Federer is playing as bad. He's hitting some amount of unforced errors. Looks like GB will finally win something at tennis. Could be a big boost for him getting a grandslam

Silver and Bronze for GB.

Very close to gold. Got the same points.

Rascasse

Louis Smith gets silver and Max Whitlock bronze in the pommel horse.

Just missed out on gold due to execution score. Otherwise score was identical.

Guy:Incognito

jupiterjack

Murray only wishing he had done that a few weeks back..great win..

2 Aces in a row and Murray seals the deal. Break out the Spandau Ballet again.

So Federer let Murray win? JUST KIDDING!

Mint Sauce

Murray has just won a final at Wimbledon!!!

Jimoslimos

Fair play to Murray. I think I had him down as a potential winner early on in the week.

The compressed format of the tournament suited the younger fitter player

Anyone

Just a word of warning, the womens snatch being shown atm, is actually weightlifting.

Ulysses Gaze

He took Federer apart today.

Hope he kicks on from this and wins a Grand Slam.

Some way to finish it, when was the last time Fed was beaten in straight sets?

J. Marston

I like Murray. Well done to him.
