Olympics---watching?

[Chris the Chees]

Despite my intention to boycott the Olympics, in a moment of weakness, I watched the Men's Singles Tennis final, and I've got to say... wow. I don't think I've ever watched a tennis match in which the best player of a generation (if not one of the greatest ever) was so roundly destroyed. I was expecting a closely fought match, but Federer was utterly trounced in every aspect of his game by a Murray who was really burning on all cylinders. I watch tennis a fair bit, and I don't think I've seen Murray play so well or Federer so completely unable to generate a response. Before the match, as stated, I thought we were in for a nail-biting closely contested affair which could go either way, and most likely to Federer. But this was a total shocker. Hopefully Murray can produce what he did this tournament in future events, he will be unstoppable.

Looks like Murray got some sweet revenge on Federer for his loss at Wimbledon: an Olympic gold medal in front of the home crowd. Well done, mate.

The run is over for phelps, most decorated ever.
