I feel a bit sorry for these two guys - they're clearly better than all the other players, bar 2, but as long as Fed and Nadal are around they haven't a chance of winning a GS.
Looks like GS semi final dissappointment looming for these two guys at RG

Quite possibly the quote of the tournament today from Gael Monfils:
"In hindsight I could have done more to go after victory but I let the stress, tiredness and that old problem I had with my buttock get to me."
Gael Monfils succumbs to the old buttock problem against Novak Djokovic.

If anyone is interested, it's now possible to buy Andy Murray clothing from Fred Perry.
You can get a French Open T-shirt, a Wimbledon T-shirt and a US Open T-shirt and a pack of all 3.
It doesn't have any photo of Murray on it, it's just exactly the same as what Murray wears

Greg's French Open isn't over yet, he's made the surprising decision to play doubles here. I'm amazed, the last time he played GS doubles must be at least a decade ago !
I would have thought he'd be rushing back to GB and getting on the grass as quickly as poss. Looks like he's not going to play Surbiton t...
