    Wow Tsonga has to be feeling good about his chances now. 5 sets good for Murray whichever way it goes.

    whichever way this goes now, the winner will be exhausted which should give Murray the advantage in the semi-final.

    maybe not so much physically as mentally - five sets emotional energy expended is hard to re-group from

    I hope Tsonga wins because I like him as a player and not because of any help this may or may not give to Andy.

    Tsonga is too talented to not win at least one GS. If he beats Andy I won't be that upset and will be rooting for him in the final

    A full day and 3/4s essentially off is plenty of recovery time

    Although watching this Andy has to be expected to beat the winner regardless.

    Thing is though MT - that a lot of people at work may want to keep an ear on the match and the only way they could do that is via the radio

    Get the cricket off - now

    Oh boy, what happened to JWT then? Hope he can get his focus back and break again - and again. Nothing against Fed really, but would love Tsonga to take this.

    unfortunately BBC didn't use their occasional BBC Tennis radio stream, which get used a bit during Wimby.

    I think there are more cricket fans who want to hear that match, than listen to Federer. Which means unfortunately there's only commentary via website
