He won!
I don't know why but from the beginning of the first set I had a strong feeling that the match was going Andy's way. True there were times when Djocovic started to look as if he might charge and the last game was as iffy a game as I think that I've ever seen—I had the real feeling that if Djocovic broke the set was his and the match might have been gone from Andy.
So what now for Andy? Well sports personality of the year is a shoe-in, he will never be called Scottish by the English media again and there's a good possibility he can garner the number one slot for a couple of years. Federer is gone, in the general sense; Nadal's knees will mean that, although he will always be dangerous, he will have to choose his tournaments and Djocovic has now lost a couple of important matches to Murray, on grass the balance has changed methinks.
Oh, and Scotland will vote for independance.

Scotland will NOT vote for independence, do you really want to have Alex Salmond as your leader? Mind you, he is a perfect representative of Scotland, obese and unhealthy looking, all thats missing is the fag in the corner of his mouth and the can of special brew in his hand. The only real danger of Scots voting for independence is from their notorious laziness and "can't be bothered" attitude towards voting. You can bet that the 'Yes' supporters will be out in their droves. If in the unlikely event that Salmond and his lunatics do win, my wife and I will be on the first plane out of here.New comment
Nellie, I think this is just the beginning for Andy Murray, I hope the next few years will see him develop into one of the greatest Scots/British sporting heroes of all time.

Oh yes, forgot to mention, great performance by Andy Murray. Things look promising for Laura Robson too in a few years time
