I was watching the final set of the Nadal v Del Potro match, it sounded like a soccer match.
Murray might have at least 10 fans in the finals lol

Puig always had the talent. just never took the step up until now. what a tournament by her. to knock out Mug, Kvitova and then Kerber is outstanding.
so happy for Nadal and i am hoping Hingis gets the W today. just sucks about the time zone. wish i could stay up and watch but i really need my sleep tonight.

When's the DP/Murray match? Sorry, don't really follow tennis in the Olympics but would love to see Del Potro get gold after everything he's gone through.

Well done Puig replay is on 7two now.
In the mens DP definitely deserves it and hope he wins. While his body is still holding up. Not that Murray wouldn't appreciate winning gold it's just that DP looked headed for retirement due to injuries. For him to win this would be sensational!

Teamed up with Ram of all people. Unlikely duo but good on them to make the final!

This is a see-sawing match! Thought Del Potro was done but he is making a comeback.

Del Potro. 
Had his opportunities but was tentative at the wrong times. Will take a lot from this week though. Hopefully gets a reasonable draw at the US Open.

Awesome stuff Andy. Wanted del po to win but Andy is a champion and who knows, he could get to number 1 the way he's playing. Gotta be favourite for the us open you would say.
A fantastic olympic tennis tournament overall. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

I really wanted Del Potro to win but great to see him playing well and making the finals. Good lead up to the US Open
Well Done to Murray, he has been great the last few months.

Pretty mad last couple of days. the Rafa/Del Potro match was epic and then Delpo's fight in the final when he had nothing left in the tank has got to respected. But Well Done to Andy, he's just too solid right now.
It may've taken a while. But I think tennis has entrenched itself as a serious competition. I get the impression that the big guns may take it as priority over the US Open in the future. Djokovic won't be crying if he gets beaten at any stage during that tournament.
