5-5 in the third, Murray just had his serve broken.

Murray double break down in the 4th. He's gone at the minute.

Yep. Wasn't fully fit going into the tournament.

Its not that his head has gone, its just that he's injured.

There's no power in any of his ground shots at all.

His head had gone a bit too because he was injured and knew he was screwed. If it was a team sport he'd have gone off injured a long time before the match ended. If you're fighting against the inevitable your mind (as well as your body) won't be fully committed.

But the reason why he lost was because of his injury (and yes, when you do get injured like that it plays on the mind) but the way Alf said it, seemed like it was because he had lost focus which wasn't the case.

Now Novak has retired injured in his match.

I doubt Federer will have an easier chance to win this year.

I must be in the minority that actually like Murray. Gutted he's out but was never gone win even if he got to the final carrying an injury. I hope Federer does it for the record.

I really like Murray and assumed most Brits liked him now.. I was very surprised to see the amount of people on social media celebrating him going out injured <erk>

I like Murray. Most people on social media are morons anyway.

This hatred of Murray seems to come from an interview he did after a match at Wimbledon where he said he didn't care about the England football team.

It's about time people got over that.

I don't care about the England football team, mainly as I'm half Scottish and half Northern Irish. I've only lived in England for 23 years.

Hope Muguruza beats Williams in the final, was unlucky in the 2015 final.
