Well, I stayed up to the end of the match. At the end of set 2 I poured gin & tonic thinking it would be over by the time I had finished the glass. At the end of set 3 I needed to deal with nervous energy, so I made toast and honey. At the end of set 4 I decided that coffee was essential because I was tired even if the players weren't. I was there to celebrate Andy Murray winning and my dog is still confused as to why we didn't go to bed at the usual time.

Now all I need to do is get through the day without dozing off somewhere.

I'm thrilled to bits for him! I didn't watch it, but am so glad he's finally won a major and hope it will give him the confidence to go on and win many more.

I didn't know he'd won until I saw this thread - so thanks for posting!

It was lovely to see him win at the Olympics, I wondered if that had given him the confidence to know he is capable of winning!

I saw the whole match too and am very bleary-eyed this morning.

What a fighter he is and what a tennis player. Brilliant!

Yes, excellent! Riding on the crest of a sporting wave I think! All we need now is for the out national football teams to catch up!

He certainly did it the hard way!

I don't have a sporting bone in my body so I find the physical and mental discipline on display astonishing.  Now that he's crossed a big mental rubicon I think he will go on to be world number one in the not too distant future - he certainly has the physical capability and range of strokes, I really do think it's the gremlin on his shoulder that has been holding him back.
