It was an epic. Apparently it's the longest semi-final in Wimbledon history.
I watched it to mid-way through the third set, when I had to go out. I got a bus into town, and I did a couple of things I needed to do, went a couple of places I needed to go, and then finally got into a pub a full hour after I'd left the house, and it was mid-way through the 4th set! Always a sign of a neck-and-neck nail-biter when time moves so slowly.
I'm really looking forward to the final today. I always love to see Murray and Djokovic match up.
I was also feeling for Sabine Lisicki in her final yesterday. She's been great to watch this year and she was upset, even before she had lost. It was never in her control, it was always being taken from her, and she obviously knew that and started to get upset while the match was still ongoing. Marion Bartoli absolutely deserved to win.
