wawrinka played great tennis against berdych.
this is a brutal test for andy. I hope he passes it and start
thinking about the semis.

Hello all,
Spartan Stan is playing some great tennis this year. Andy did
not have a good day at the office today, but one has to give
credit to Stan for having very good tactics today and executing.
I think his tight match with Djokovic at the AO in a losing
effort gave him a lot more confidence in himself, something
which had been lacking.
I wouldn't be surprised to see Wawrinka make it to the final.
But I would be surprised if Nadal doesn't win it all.
Respectfully,
masterclass

I am out on the open road right now.
it is tough to do anything with the I phone.

I am a bit heartbroken no doubt. It was a Major event after all.
While Wawrinka played very well just like he did against
Berdcyh, Andy never once played his best tennis and not only
here in the qtr but in any of his matches thus far. He never
once looked pumped up or into any match. I do think Wimbledon
has done him good for the year. The only event I see he trying a
bit is WTF otherwise I don't see him winning anything else this
year and his ranking will probably fall too a bit. Wimbledon win
was huge for him and both Darren and Johnny Mac kept talking
about before every match of Andy how he was having a mental
letdown since then. He's lost Toronto, Cincy, USO all in
straight sets and a player of Andy's calibre doesn't lose in
that fashion - not in three straight back to back tournaments.
Wawrinka is a very good player no doubt and occasionally can
cause trouble to any top player, but anyone who's truly
convinced of Andy losing to him in straight in Major - not even
one single set going to TB then hey, more power to you.
Thankfully not all of us are so dumb and actually know tennis a
bit more.
Apparently neither Judy nor Kim was there so this does cast a
bit more doubt on things. It all seems a bit too determined.
Here's a twitter I found which helped me understand the problem
a bit more "@BenRothenberg: Andy Murray admitted that after the
enormity of winning Wimbledon for him, it was hard to fire
himself back up and train at "110%."
Some of his fans may ask what now. Nothing really. Andy doesn't
have anything to worry about. Nadal after all lost his match to
a nobody in the very first round at Wimboledon. Federer has now
taken two losses back to back in Majors - and he too lost in
straight to Robredo of all people. Andy did lead Wawrinka 6-2 on
hard before this match (8-5 overall) but still he's much better
opponent than Nadal's at Wimbledon and Federer's.
Anyway, since Andy doesn't care about the ranking he can gladly
let players like Nole, Rafa fight it all out this year. In the
meantime, he can now afford to enjoy his life and enjoy all his
victories he had over the last 12/14 months or so (Olympics,
USO, Wimbledon). It will do him good. I know he's very keen on
winning AO as he discussed it recently and said he'd made the
final a few times so he'd like to win that one, so until then.
As to me, I will not be watching any tennis either. This is it
for me this year. I have a project that I need to finish by the
2nd week of January so I will be very busy regardless and since
this is part of my bonus goal, I'd like to concentrate really
hard and pay all my attention to that. I am also very tired of
all the drama that has happened on forums since Wimbledon so I
feel it's high time for me to take a break as well. I am not
saying I will completely go away but perhaps get less involved.

Hi herc, just read some of your posts at T4U. I do remember
Nekro trying to open a new Castle at T4U right after we
successfully moved to Tennis Frontier and I remember you telling
me in one of your PMs about it. I did wonder about it but since
I don't know the true history of the Castle as much, I let the
thought slide. I know he and Slasher was in a fight at T4U right
around that time and Slasher went on to ban Nekro for a few
days. So anyway, I really don't know what's going on so I don't
know what to say. What's his beef with Masterclass anyway? I
remember he said he likes masterclass' posts but he doesn't like
him as a person.

Right after the loss, I did the next best thing - bought myself
comfort food - wings and beer.
herc darling, you need to go easy on mimi. I think she's still
upset that you deleted all those Castle threads at T4U and left
her high and dry.
