16!

Oh, Rog! 16 slams! But poor Mand. I felt for him.

There were tears again, not Roger's this time. What is it about the AO that makes everyone cry?













“I can cry like Roger, it’s just a shame I can’t play like him.”

Oh, Mandy moo. Your time will come.

From Rog's presser:

"I thought he was actually doing fine until he told me, I think there will be some tears. I'm like, Don't worry, it will be all right. And he actually did.

You know, in a way it was hard to watch, but at the same time I like seeing players who care for the game. I don't know. It's nice to see, you know. So you wish, you know, only the best for him."

Ah great game wasn't it! Pretty intense there at the tie breaker. My poor heart rate! I wanted Rog to win so much (as always), but Murray put up such an awesome fight it was impossible not to be impressed and a bit sorry that he lost. Unless he's totally off his game, I reckon next year he might be crying a different tune!

I think everyone's heart was pounding. My heartrate was substantially increased. I was so glad he won, but was totally moved by Mandy's moment. He was v gracious. He's gonna win one of these things sooner or later, for def.
