Aww Roger looks so disappointed.

Well done Milos!

Yes! Really pleased for Raonic!

JuanPotatoTwo · 08/07/2016 16:38

I am pleased but can't help feeling sorry for Rog. No pleasing some people is there!

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 08/07/2016 16:39

That can't possibly be true, he is "the first Canadian man to reach a Grand Slam final"? What, ever?

JuanPotatoTwo · 08/07/2016 16:42

I can't think of any Canadian players off hand Hearts

UnGoogleable · 08/07/2016 16:42

Oops did you hear the BBC presenter cock up there in his interview with Ronic

"And Andy Murray in the final.... If it's him.... If it's him"

He hasn't played yet you wally, his poor opponent must feel shit!

hugoagogo · 08/07/2016 16:43

Very pleased.

magimedi · 08/07/2016 16:44

Well done, Milos.

I reckon he's going to be in this place a lot more times in the future.

Sorry for Rog - wonder when he'll give up? He did look as if there was something wrong with the knee as he walked off.

CremeEggThief · 08/07/2016 16:47

Gutted for Roger. Absolutely gutted. But fair play to Raonic for keeping his cool. I only saw the very end of it, so that's all I can say for now.

Raahh · 08/07/2016 16:47

Heart I think it is true, ever since Milos first hit the top 10, they have mentioned it. He's the most successful Canadian player, male or female.There is Pospisil, of course who is good at doubles. Is Daniel Nestor Canadian? He's the only other Canadian I can think of.

Come on, people. Federer has won enough. Let someone else have a go.Grin

CremeEggThief · 08/07/2016 16:49

Obviously I will still watch all the finals this weekend, but my interest in Wimbledon is over this year. At least it's been a much better tournament than the French Open.

Raahh · 08/07/2016 16:49

Ungoogleable- what an idiot. Mind you, he isn't alone in handing Murray the trophy before he's hit a ball.

Wonder if Kim is watching? Will she be as potty mouthed as she was at the Australian when they played?

UnGoogleable · 08/07/2016 16:51

Federer had to fade sooner or later - and let's be honest it's not over for him yet, he's just lost a semi-final and could have won it.

It's like when Sampras was at his prime - I couldn't imagine anyone ever taking over from him. But everyone has their day, and Federer has had a very good innings!

How old is Raonic, he looks young - good to have new blood coming through.

Raahh · 08/07/2016 16:51

I'm really pleased, it is the first time in years that I have someone I can genuinely cheer for.

Mama1980 · 08/07/2016 16:51

Yay raonic! (Can't believe I'm reduced to supporting raonic but dammit I want someone different to win!)

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 08/07/2016 16:51

It's true thank you oh powerful google wow I never realised.

But thinking about it I shouldn't be surprised. I couldn't think of anyone other than Pospisil and of course Rusedski is originally a Canuck.

trixymalixy · 08/07/2016 16:54

Well done raonic!!! Now come on Andy!

Raahh · 08/07/2016 16:54

Raonic is 25. I feel like he's been around for years though. it's funny how tennis players make you think that!

I think Federer still has matches in him. He has been lucky, injury wise, I think his body is catching up with him. Fully expect his to be one of the favourites in Rio.

Raahh · 08/07/2016 16:56

Rusedski! Ofcourse!

But then, Milos is originally a SerbGrin

NoBarbaraGood · 08/07/2016 16:57

So sad for Fed.

I do like Milos, though, and I agree with Raah that it is good to see younger players stepping up. To me this feels like when Fed beat Sampras. I used to like Sampras's tennis. Then this kid beat him.... And now we're on the other side of the slope.

Milos is 25, by the way.

JuanPotatoTwo · 08/07/2016 16:59

Oh yes, forgot about Rusedski. I don't want either Andy or Berdych to win this!

NoBarbaraGood · 08/07/2016 16:59

Sorry for the repetition. I type s l o w l y.

BringMeTea · 08/07/2016 17:02

C'mon Andy!!

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 08/07/2016 17:07

LOL everyone in Canada came from somewhere else at some point. Apart from the First Nations of course.

GrouchyKiwi · 08/07/2016 17:10

I was a bit worried this was going to be a short one with that first break by Andy so I'm glad Berdych broke back straight away. I want another long match, as long as Andy wins it. Grin
