[seekeerz]

Just seen the sports update ....Andy Murray out of the US Open...

[Smowball]

Have to admit the other guy played brilliantly

[seekeerz]

I only caught the end of the match but yes, he certainly did....

I'm just hoping he doesn't do the same to his next opponent ....del Potro

[seekeerz]

Yes. It was a great match. I was gutted to see him knocked out. I was sure he'd win the tournament.

[murraymints]

I thought it was an opportunity missed, really. Murray was in control at 2-1 up, but then lost focus far too easily. I can only assume that he was mentally fatigued after a terrific run of success from the last few months, which is about as good a reason as any to get thrown off by a gong sound. Showed some spirit to keep the final set close from breaks down, but wasn't to be. Nishikori able to hold himself together in the end and made the most of Murray's frailty but all the same I felt that Murray lost this match rather a lot more than Nishikori winning it.

Oh, well. Murray's had a great season so far, and there's still potential to win another title and maybe pressure Djokovic later for #1. Hopefully he can take the break he needs now and recover mentally.

He looked very tired to me.
On the other had he'll get a more of a rest now before Argentina in Glasgow.

I agree with ichkeria. He looked very tired but he's done very well throughout the season. Djokovich meantime has had a nice easy stroll into the semis.
