Gutted for Robson. Too think this time last week we'd be gutted at getting a Gold and a Silver. Tremendous week for all the British Athletes in the Tennis, especially Murray and Robson.
Serena's GOAT performance probably won't get the praise it deserves compared to other Olympic feats. Incredible stuff to win Singles and Doubles Gold and not lose your serve all week. She didn't just win both Golds, she fucking BOSSED it.
Put £5 e/w on Murray for the US Open. BITW right now. Djokovic has fallen off pretty badly, Federer's best days are him and Nadal has to recover from a terrible month for him. Expecting him to come back strong though and Del Potro will be a threat at the US. 100% expect Murray to get to the final, if anyone beats him along the way then they'll win it. Not sure yet if a Murray/Potro Final will be possible but if they're on opposite sides of the draw then I'm going for that. Womens is Serena's to lose again. Fucking LOL at the idea of another Womens Player beating on this current form.

No womens player beats Serena on this form.
Murray was very impressive, but Serena bossed EVERYONE she played, and did it without breaking a sweat really. Very impressive. Pure beatdowns she put on her opponents.

Agree that Murray will be a huge contender (I think he'll certainly win one of the next two) but I wouldn't say Djokovic has fallen off. Like Murray his best court is hard court and that's pretty much stopped Murray from winning one already. Would love to see Del Potro do well, he's a beast when he's 100%.
Anyone else think Andy Murray is the most miserable man in sports? Bagged a gold and a silver medal today and still walking around as if he's depressed.

I just watched the medal ceremony it looked like Federrer faked being happy about his silver more than Murray looked happy about the gold. I was like let it out man, you just won a gold medal, and he just stood there.
Sounds like Murray played brilliantly and thoroughly deserved the gold, as much as I dislike the guy, so fair play. Disappointed in Federer though, from what I've read/heard it sounds like he pretty much didn't turn up and was an absolute shadow of the player he usually is today, and that's his chance of ever getting his single's gold gone now. Still indisputably the greatest player of all time though and a record 17 slams, a record amount of time at world #1, 6 ATP World Tour Finals titles, and an Olympics doubles gold and singles silver isn't too bad!
