is anyone else watching this?
federer looked absoloutely brilliant earlier on, LOOKS far too good for any of these 2 now. still it would be a great achievement to reach the final and give it a jolly good go, eh?

The catering manager is watching,which means dinner will be late on the table. Wood warp,paint dry,not for me sorry Popping off to the sausage for a few till it's over. Used to play a little but never a watcher. As for the Scottish chap I hope he does well or I may not get any Dinner..But that's the only reason.

Federer is a brilliant tennis player and incredibly consistent, Murray has just gone two sets to one down to Roddick.

Watch Eurosport tomorrow afternoon for the fittest athletes in sport. It's the start of the Tour De France.

[George Dawes]

id say top class boxers who train to fight 12 - 3 minute rounds who have to control the breathing when punching are fitter

Totally agree. But when you pack in......the body goes South, East and West!

boxers are fit but they have nothing on cyclists!

[Abbo]

Ok cyclists but tennis players are a close second

[George Dawes]

ok you could argue cyclists are fitter than boxers, but no way are tennis players its more a stop & start they get a lot more breathers, than boxers









oh and am glad Andy Murry is out of Wimbledon, he's not British, he's said so himself he's Scottish, been brought up watching to many Mel Gibson films

and has this romantic look of Scotland's history

[Martin]

Surely Darts and Snooker Players should be in there somewhere?

[harty_shrimp]

[P/T Indie]

and it's not like there is a close season really in tennis it's all year round and they play every other day.

If you feel knakered and want to miss a tournemant you can't as your ranking will drop.

[outsider]

[durhamshrimp]

Ironman triathletes are pretty fit. Though it isn't really a proper sport.
