Ben "the sail that never fails" Ainsley
Tennis is as much about the mental strength as it is technical excellence.
Murray is probably playing the best tennis of anyone in the world right now, he just needs to overcome his mental weakness and he'll win today and in the grand slams
Silver in the Star Boat race
Come on Ainslie! Hopefully Pendleton can get another gold tonight as well. Expecting silver for Murray, and gold in the doubles (hopefully). We'll see.
Federer will destroy Murray
ben 'lord nelson' ainslie
he needs to get his groun strokes sorted though.
he was shocking in the game where he went out in the french open. kept on hitting "simple" forehands into the net.
improved at wimbledon, but then in the semi here played like he hasnt played for years. hope he keeps it up today.
Got 2 free £10 bets I might go for a big accumulator
Commentator saying it could be Murray's time. They say it every single time.
the problem is he'll have to better than he was at wimbledon and im not sure thats possible
No gold yet
We all know Murray is going to lose
i dont understand why ainsley didnt just carry on ? he was in 3rd but he's dropped right back to try to pisss his rival about.
Federer didn't look great against del Potro towards the end, but he's had a lot of time to recover, and I'm sure he'll pull out his best for the final. It might be a 4 or 5 setter, but I think Murray will lose again. Who will get the biggest cheer from the crowd, I wonder.
He was great in the first couple of sets in the Wimbledon final, just bottled it after Federer pulled off those two superb shots.
Like I was saying, Murray has all the tools to be a champ, he just needs to sort his mental game out as he's often too hard on himself
Seems strange to me too JPB, but that seems to be how sailing works.
After he loses we can say he's Scottish anyway
Looking like an early break

===============
it's not just mental. the main problem is executing his ground strokes.
Didn't the Danish guy pìss him off?
Murray is always Scottish regardless if he wins or loses.
Good start by Murray here
You are scottish aren't you jukebox?
Just sail over to the Dane and board him Ben, just claim to be a Somalian pirate, job done
