He's probably absolutely spent to be fair though.

He's probably completely f***ed but I was expecting tears.

I'm glad he didn't cry. Sick of him crying now!

3rd in the rankings, first man to win Olympic Gold and US Open in the same year.

Think he's gotta be favourite for SPOTY, based on achievements. Between him and Wiggins for me to be honest.

Best Murray fact of the night: Roger, Rafa & Novak all beat men who'd never won a slam to win their first. Murray's never had that luxury.

I was so focused on the game last night that I couldn't bring myself to come and post on here. What an incredible victory <diva>

What a win! I think he will get 2/3 more on the future. I did predict it going to 5 sets.

Thought would go to 5 too.

Went the same as second set.

Murray went well up, djoko came back strong as underdog but as soon as he came level, Murray took over again

How the bloody hell did he manage that <yikes> When I left he couldn't get a point from anywhere!

I switched off after the 4th set assuming Djokovic would cruise the last set <wah>

As long as he doesn't win Wimbledon in his career I'll be fine.
