WIMBLEDON 2016

(Murray's first Slam final not against Djokovic or Federer, whoa. The "he's too miserable" complaint about him pales next to the fact that he's one of the few ATP players with progressive opinions tbh)

yeah i have encountered way too many IRL murray haters who think he's awfully sour and grumpy, tbh whenever he's interviewed i'm always impressed by how articulate and sensible he sounds

saw in passing the stat of murray making at least the qtrs in 21 of the last 22 majors i think? thats p killer

some outstanding rallies here

kerb looks good

@ work, missing this, bah!

That was a solid set, so many amazing rallies. Hoping Kerber keeps it up.

The highlight reel from this match will be unreal - it's just been winner after winner from both players.

so many points making me gasp

Jesus this match

Sad for Angie. Nice net hug! Serena was generally very very good. But Wimbledon's been won with worse play than Kerber showed.

This final was everything I wanted it to be. Stellar performance from two of my favorite player.

And Serena gets 22, tying Steffi Graf's record.

Shame that had to end so soon - there were more amazing points in those two sets than the entirety of yesterday's Raonic-Fed five-setter.

Meanwhile, drama and hilarity in the girls' final. So much foot-stamping and screaming in the last game - Potapova needing six championship points to close it out, thinking she won on at least two of them only for Yetremska to challenge, both times guessing right.

By the time Potapova actually won, she looked ready to jump over the net and throttle Yetremska.

FEELING EXTREMELY 22 RN

serena <3

so crazy that serena won her first grand slam in 1999. that is a long time ago. beat hingis. i remember that one. did not know that hingis won the doubles at the u.s. open last year. missed that one.

serena/venus in the doubles final now

Maybe time to introduce best-of-5 women's tennis - dual purpose - shut up the bigots and make top matches possibly more classic

posting this partly because seeing safin's name reminded me of how much i miss him

very special to see history made with such a great match yesterday! and bey in the crowd!

Excellent from Murray so far

Hewitt needs to pick a pronunciation of Raonic and stick with it, even if it's the wrong one.

(Quite a good match-up this, Milos displaying far more variety)

Far more variety than we usually see from him, I mean, not more than his opponent.

brilliant passes from murray all maych

raonic has no shot coming in against murray's backhand today

murray is serving good

murray gets back shots no_one short of novak gets back

raonic has done well to keep this respectable because murray has played one of the best matches i've seen him play

srsly he has been great

good one! unbelievable some of the serves that Murray returned today. like, how the hell do you even do it?

He did the business for sure.

this dude who always chats up the ball kids as he walks out to present the plaque always creeps me out

lol

not always an on-court interviewee throws a little simile out there

raonic seems like a nice kid tho

yeah, surprising

yeah i feel bad when people get slammed for not showing emotion or having fun or whatever when all they must be thinking inside their head is: AHHHHHHHHHHHH I'M IN THE FINALS AT WIMBLEDON HOLY SHIT! i mean you need to keep it together.

Raonic is such a clunky, one-dimensional player. Murray tight as a drum yet it was NID at every point. Raonic lumbering into net was so exactly what Murray needed today! Really glad he took the opportunity, he's put together a much better career than every other two-slam champion.

Watson's mixed doubles win was nice too :)
