Breakfast at Wimbledon?

[cigrmaster]

I am a huge tennis fan and still play the game(singles only) quite a bit. Wimbledon is my favorite major and I have been watching it religiously for 45 years. Today could be historic with Andy Murray finally coming through for the home team. I always record it so I can go through commercials at my leisure.

Federer is a tough man to beat that's for sure.

Too tough as it turns out.
Still a massive achievement for Murray though (or indeed anyone) and if he's got the guts he can do better next year.

Just wasn't Andy's year.

I was rooting for the kid, would have been unbelievable for his country.

Another tennis fan here. Just got back from a family vacation, so I unfortunately missed Wimbledon. Fortunately, I was able to login to my Tivo from an ocean away and tell it to record the men's final. It now awaits me.
Somewhat relatedly, on said vacation I stumbled on a long form piece by David Foster Wallace from 2006 entitled Federer as Religious Experience. It's a fantastic read.
