no, not another Andy Murray argument thread but about Laura Robson.

Currently playing Maria Sharapova and doing pretty well - taken her to at least a tie break in the 1st set....

    Will take a look when there's a break in the Derby v Kent match I'm watching.

    Anyone know the position with the semis?

    Is it like the boxing where both losing semi finalists get bronze medals?

    Pretty sure I heard that if he won his next match (i.e. the one he won today) that he'd get a medal.

    No, they just said on commentary that there is a play-off for bronze.

    Bronze at best then probably.

    Got that wrong... must pay more attention. Federer was serving to stay in the match at 9-8 down....

    now 9-9..... maybe.

    no idea - I think this game was moved anyway. would have seen Sharapova otherwise which would have been great too.

    See, I'm more enclined to support him as he's playing for Team GB not just himself this time... still want Fed to win though.

    Great performance from Murray and he looked overwhelmed with joy at getting into the final and picking up at least a silver representing GB
