    I sincerely hope that Murray’s loss will be a lesson in soberness for British media and British people. It was unbearably annoying to read the articles about Andy Murray, mostly biased and pitifully nationalistic.

    Murray could have reached the finals of Wimbledon first time since 1983 but he lost against Roddick. It was a very interesting match. Now, Roddick will face Federer in finals. Roddick has lost to Federer thrice. All The Best Roddick!!
