[URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_true_Scotsman"]No True Scotsman[/URL] would dismiss an [URL="http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/2012/jul/06/andy-murray-british-wimbledon-final"]achievement over 70 years in the making[/URL].

By the way, both Murray and Tsonga were looking older and roughed up by the game, taking painful dives to the ground to save shots, and also both receiving some bad referee calls. Tsonga actually received an apology at one point from the chair umpire.

Wimbledon is the only Grand Slam that Eurosport doesn't not transmit. Never so a Wimbledon live match on TV...:cry:

Glad someone got my Scottish jibe:smile:
Their putative independence is big news here ATM.

Still, best of luck v the Fed
