Hi Eve,

I hope your daughter enjoyed the Men's Final match.:-D

I thought the result was a fair one all in all… but Andy Murray certainly tied up in the third set and played as if he didn't believe he could win. Still, he played his part and was extremely gracious in defeat… which raised him in my estimation.. as a human being, if not…[Read more]
