I can only see Murray upsetting Federer now unless Tsonga plays lights out tennis, his form of today will not do the job against a half decent Federer.

more importantly, he will have to keep that play up as well. I mean davydenko played fantastic for a set and a half, and then bam 13 games in a row for Fed.

Their head to head is 1 all. With tsonga's win coming when fed was up 5-0 in the third set at toronto. Remeber that one?

Very true, plus Tsonga has the great 1st serve to rely on and he is moving great aswell.

I know Fed has a lot more up's and downs nowadays but he generally can get away with it because he has such confidence in his game, if the wheels started to come off with Tsonga he would find it a lot harder to get it back imo.

Saying that like DelPotro showed, sooner or later these young guys are going to have to start knocking Federer off in the Grand Slams.

Never been a Murray fan, but I'm actually starting to like the guy. :shock:

He played some great tennis today and hit some fantastic shots. The point he hit around the net post in the last game was a real screamer. :lol:

I actually found his play quiet exciting thanks to his excellent movement tonight.

It would be great to have a Brit win a Grand Slam but I would still be hard pushed not to root for Federer if he gets there.

Feds going to win, unless murray plays exceptionally well, which i hope he does, because it would be another nice change for someone else to win.

There have only been 2 players who have beat federer in a grand slam final :wink:

But i dont know the amount that have beat him in a grand slam semifinal :lol:

So did he play well? I seen the 2nd and half of the 3rd set and it was pretty scrappy
