Belgium vs. Great Britain - 2015 Davis Cup Final

[Nostradamus]

Murray pushed novak to 5th set in frenchopen why are you so sure novak would win this

So you are saying Andy will Beat Novak in French open next year in 2016 ?

 

[killerboi2]

The same way Olympic means something.

Olympics legit means something. Mugvis Cup doesn't.

lol people coming in to whine, why cant everyone just be happy for Murray and GB? If Nadal won the WTF, id be happy for him to complete all the "big" events. I would love to see Djokovic finally win the French open and id be happy even tho neither of them are players i paticularly enjoy watching. This is great for GB and Murray so just enjoy it!

 

[Bartelby]

Let them eat haggis!

 

[bjsnider]

For the player with the greatest lob in the world to have won this DC with a lob is fantastic. That last point was pure defensive genius.

Olympic Gold, US Open, Wimbledon, Davis Cup - Check

I have read enough of your posts regarding Rafa to know that simply is not true.

 

[KarmaKorps]

That last BH topspin lob - only fitting to end it like that.

 

[NatF]

Biggest celebration I've seen from Murray. Great stuff and what a point to win it!

 

[Rebel-I.N.S]

Sensational lob under a low roof.

The Muzziah!

[Nostradamus]

if Belgium had Bryan bros as the Doubles guys, they would have won this final, instead of losing it

 

[hup]

haha henri leconte just referred to team GB as team england

 

[Terenigma]

Thanks for this! Great way to win the match for Murray and i think its fair to say that he now has the best lob in the game (Sorry Hewitt)

 

[Djokovic2011]

Lol@ John Lloyd making out that Djokovic is the only player capable of beating Murray these days.

 

[*Sparkle*]

This has nothing to do with Novak. Are you really that bitter that you can't show a little bit of grace and let those who are interested in this tie to get on with enjoying the tennis?

 

[Levi_Ackerman]

John Lloyd just insinuated that only Djokovic is able to beat Murray consistently these days. Hahahaha. He seems to have forgotten this guy:

Murray hasn't beaten this guy since 2013 in five sets.

Somewhere Federer is listening laughing is arse off.

LOL, he said that? Isn't this the same guy that was berating Murray just a few days ago for not doing enough for British tennis. That guy is a clown.

That was David Lloyd.

Tbh it's the kind of statement I'd expect Andrew Castle to come out with. Lloyd seems to have completely forgotten what happened to Murray the last five times he played Federer.

 

[Deleted member 77403]

That was David Lloyd.

I see. So it is a family thing.

 

[killerboi2]

If I wasn't a Murray fan I would have turned off by now. Can barely stomach Andrew Castle's nonsense and him overyhping this small time event. The way he was going on you'd think he beat Federer and Djokovic back to back.

Selective amnesia.

 

[heninfan99]

well this was easy to predict.
Congrats to Goffin, he is a great & brave fighter.

[Levi_Ackerman]

What a terrible rendition of the GB national anthem. Yuck.

 

[La Grande]

Do you reckon the players mime the national anthems or sing quietly?

That guy still has a job commentating after what he said about Rafa during the AO 2014 F!

[tennis_pro]

Lol@ John Lloyd making out that Djokovic is the only player capable of beating Murray these days.

Lawl 2-10 against Djokovic, Federer, Nadal, Wawrinka combined.

But let's give it to him, other than Djokovic he's been by far the most consistent player out there. He just needs to do better against the top top players.

 

[Levi_Ackerman]

Lol @ the commentators tipping Kyle Edmunds as the next big thing in British tennis. looooooool

Great effort from Murray to lead GB to the Davis Cup, not matter what people say here. The Davis Cup is a huge thing, no matter the competition, and he's put so much heart in this campaign. There's still the whole off season to whine about him not beating Federer.

You know what Fed did in Davis Cup this year? He beat Thiemo de Bakker and Jesse Huta Galung, along with losing the doubles.

 

[Fed881981]

Congratulations GB and Andy Murray. Good effort Belgium.

 

[Bartelby]

Yes, well, the great ones want to tick off a Davis Cup victory and then move on.

Federer?

[tennis_pro]

Federer?

Let's say consistency = at least the SF (so playing to your seed/ranking)

Federer
Slams - 2/4
Masters - 3/7
WTF - 1/1

Murray
Slams - 3/4
Masters - 7/8
WTF - 0/1

Federer was able to make a bigger dent when he got past the QF (made the final each time and won Cincinnati) but Murray got there more consistently.

I would agree with this. Murray had great consistency overall.

Hope he can put it right next year.

 

[tennis_pro]

Not only that, the only time he failed to reach the SF in a MS was because he gave a W/O to Goffin, he was also a whisker from reaching the SF of the WTF (I think he would've beaten Wawrinka had he won the 1st set) so the only obvious early loss was at the US Open to GOATERSON (I watched the entire match and Kevin was just outstanding).

Well done to Team GB, didn't expect a soprano version of God Save The Queen at the end. Haha

 

[Slice'n'dice]

It's fitting, it's a terrible national anthem. There is no good version, so why bother trying?

 

[KarmaKorps]

I had plenty of time to get a similar sense of the Spanish Nat'l anthem during the many Nadal trophy ceremonies. What can you do though... gotta carry the tradition fwd.

It was a great Davis Cup final in Ghent, and it's great to see Britain win it. Let that be the answer to all those who wanted the tie cancelled and for us to live in fear instead of defiance.
