Great summary! I am going to post a link in the ATP and WTA forums, to make sure people see this. People forget about this forum.

Excellent summary. There were other matches that were just as good or perhaps even better, but the two matches that really had me sitting on the edge of my seat were...

1) Serena Williams vs Heather Watson. Partly because it was so unexpected that this one became the thriller that it did. By the third set I was rooting for Heather. Not out of any strong desire to see Serena lose, but just because going into the match it was unimaginable that this impossibly hugable representative of British cuteness could even just give Serena something that could be called a match, let alone win it. But she played out of her skin, was as in the zone as anyone can possibly be in the zone and nearly pulled it off. If ever a loss can be a life changer, than this must be it.

2) Roger Federer vs Andy Murray. What can anyone possibly say after a display like that? I for one couldn't say anything. 15 minutes after it was over I was still sitting in front of my television screen with a blank look on my face and my chin to the ground trying to contemplate what I had just seen. Finally I got out of my chair to get a cup of coffee and a smoke while I mumbled to myself, "Yes buddy, you've still got it."

Would not help you running from left to right in extended rallies. :nono

p.s. If your running is limited to between Fridge and TV, it is alright. :)
