I just knew he would win it today. I woke up with that feeling that something special was going to happen. Only just now got off the phone so many people are going to be celebrating this, Andy has just become a living legend. I'm so happy to have been a witness to this monumental victory.

I couldn't love Andy any more, all the lows have been so worth it to have finally been able to see this match.

[Helen40]

In tears again!

Admittedly not as much as I was when he won the USO. Even when he had those three championship points although I wanted to believe, I know what an immense competitor Novak is, and he won the first two championships points from Muzza. BUT Muzza's won it!!!!!
I know what they mean by Muzza not believing it, I know I still haven't fully taken it in. Well done, and here's to many more!

[ljs]

Ive just stopped the tears , I am so thrilled for Andy and for the whole UK !!!!!!!!!!!

[daveollie]

Andy now the current holder of 2 slams, with 1 for Novak & Rafa, don't care what the rankings say, that makes him the worlds best player in my opinion. But just to set the record straight it's time to go on a run of domination over the American hard court swing and get the title officially as well as defending the U.S. Open. Congratulations Andy the worlds greatest player :-)

[jaysee]

Just about calmed down enough to write something! I was crying through most of the last set -don't know how he managed to serve in that last game but he did it! Followed him for 9 years and now he's won the biggest one of all:yahoo:

[greatunclebulgaria]

wow I'm still crying, what a match fantastic

[WimbledonAce]

Can anyone believe it yet? Think I'm still in shock! What a crazy day. Was so worried after those match points went to waste! He was incredibly determined today though, both set 2 and 3 a break down and turned it around. I have no words, so happy :GBflag:

[hfwardhouse]

I'm still smiling broadly - Mr HFW has just gone out to check the livestock so will be changing the channel to the mixed any sec!!! What a fabulous day - best day ever. So so happy!

Me too! Although I don't actually put much in here I am often looking at comments etc and I have followed Andy for about the same amount of time as you and it feels really good to see it all come to this. And isn't it deserved - I should say so.

Next stop - defending the US Open and that should be no problem. Be afraid, be very afraid ......!!!

WELL DONE ANDY

By the way, who were the two men in blue suits, I think in the Royal Box, that BBC cameras kept homing in on? I'm sure I ought to know but I don't always listen to Bouncy Castle so I missed that!

[JennieF]

I can still remember so clearly the first time I saw him play Wimbledon as a scrawny youngster who couldn't go more than three sets! But knew he had something special and that he would give us the champion we'd wanted for so long. And he has done more than that - he has become part of my life and has made me so proud we have such a fabulous, lovely guy to keep us cheering! Huge huge congratulations Andy! You have so deserved this win! Never stopped believing in you!

Just about calmed down enough for it finally to sink in. Been reading all the posts, especially from familiar names who i have shared the high and lows with over the years, since i saw Andy playing Queens in 2005 on the beeb then joining the original forum when there wasn't quite as many of us. Been quite a journey with many great moments but this seems the one I have been waiting for, the moment when the green green grass of home belonged to Great Britain once again.

Well done Andy, you deserve it for you have given everything to the pursuit of being the best in the world. It is a privilege to be your fan today and always.

[Elenive]

All these years supporting Andy, following Andy and watching his tennis. I'm am so darn proud to be an Andy Murray fan and belong to such a heartfelt and utterly fanatical Andy Murray fanclub on this forum! Thanks for letting me in on the Andy Murray journey, and let Andy's journey prosper for many more years to come!

Andy Murray is the Wimbledon Champion! ... it was always to be!

[traveller7]

I cant believe it although I always knew it would happen and had a good feeling about it today.
I never thought he would do it in 3 sets. So happy and proud to be a Murray fan and he is no 1 in the world to me. Truly classy , match and fantastic tournament. Sad its over but so happy how it ended.

I suppose it doesn't really matter, because I don't know what to say. I'm so thrilled, there are no words to describe it. Although I felt he had done everything I expected of him when he won his first slam, there is no doubt that this will mean much more to the Great British Public (most of whom think tennis is only played in June!)

Is Andy gonna be having a boogie woogie with Bartoli around about now :wino:

[rouges]

What a priviledge to be Andy's fan, we should be so proud of him, we have stuck by him and defended him, always supporting. Our reward today. God Bless Andy, what an athlete. Simply the Best.

Being reported that Murray is donating his full prize money, £1.6 million, to the Royal Marsden cancer hospital. #TopGuy

[WimbledonAce]

It's times like these when I think back to Wimbledon 2005. I was bitterly disappointed as had tickets to first Friday and Saturday centre court expecting to see Tim Henman but he had got knocked out 2nd round. I can still remember me and my parents having a little joke - well we get to see Andy Murray (he was an 18 year old wildcard at the time). Never in our wildest dreams did we think he would become Wimbledon Champion, it is just crazy to think of it now! Just shows what you can achieve. :GBsmile:

[DrewZiph]

Hi everyone. Hope you're all enjoying today. I'm absolutely elated!

[traveller7]

stevegtennis ‏@stevegtennis 43s

Just seen a tweet that its not true. Dont think Andy would make that kind of donation public either.

Ever wondered what Sky Sports Marcus Buckland does on his days off from sky? Well he's presenting a post Wimbledon 'look back' show now on Wimbledon radio

Or could I borrow him for a day please? I haven't got one!

Apparently they are showing an updated version of the documentary tomorrow at 9pm.

I still don't quite believe it. I'm sort of numb and tingly with a foggy head. Think it will take until I see all the papers tomorrow before it really sinks in, might have to buy the lot of them.

I feel so lucky to have seen Andy play at Queens and Wimbledon he is truly magnificant.

:trophy::grass::strawberry::GBflag: Well what a fantastic day. At my sons near Cardiff and he hasn't got internet yet so had to go and buy a dongle. Was on the edge of my seat, what a fantastic match from Andy's perspective. Still can't believe it has finally happened. What do I mean I always knew deep down it would happen. Very happy. :bravo::boogie::clap::band::mexican::excited::part y:

Retain US title, win AO title and No 1 in the world?!!!!!What about the biggest challenge of the lot....Roland Garros, with the uncertainty over Rafa's knee (or even with a fully fit Rafa) I reckon Andy should be trying to do the lot in the game, and cementing his place as an all time great and legend of the game.

I know what you mean -I flew to see him in the US open semi and finals in 2010 and andy got knocked out before I got
there!!

[pippadaisy]

after this wonderfull day it is time to say goodnight cant wait for the papers to relive it all again

[RoastLamb]

Judy looks fabulous!!! Can't wait to see the Ball photos from tonite.

I hope Andy gets to win the Oz Open coz he has been sooooooo close. I don't think he'll ever win the French but maybe he could do the WTF esp. as it's at home. Until then we have this to savour.

[traveller7]

Id be happy for him to win Oz and US, im not sure French will be his though the form he has right now who knows!
Must try and get ticket for ATP finals.

[HenFan]

Hi folks, apologies for the rather hasty post earlier - I was on my way out to a gig (you guys know I'm a musician, right?), and had left it to the very last minute to get ready because of watching Andy! :)

Today is special for me for so many reasons, it's hard to put it into words. First of all I can't help but think back to everyone who's ever taken delight in gloating at me because Andy has lost - I remember a text message that someone sent me when Andy lost to Roddick at Wimbledon those years ago saying "So much for Murray." It's wrong of me to think of those moments I know, but I can't help myself - it is very hard and dare I say upsetting sometimes to be a Murray fan, when you see someone that you respect and admire so much keep getting ripped to pieces. In the heat of sporting passion when Murray had just won I posted on my Facebook "To every Murray hater there's ever been, I say - UP YOURS!!!", which someone took offence to. In retrospect a bit too strong I agree, but the result just caused a lot of outpouring of emotion for me.

But more than anything else, I just feel this huge sense of pride that someone I have so much respect and admiration for has achieved something SO HUGE!! I know how hard Andy works and trains, and I know what today will have meant to him, his team, his family, the people of Dunblane (hope I've spelt that correctly) who have suffered so much - God, I'm tearing up as I think about it!! :)

Everything that's happened to Andy has been a step up - as much as last year's final loss hurt, I think it was necessary for the public (at least, most of them, lol!) to finally begin to see the Andy that we've always known as there. He's a very special person, and I truly believe that finally people are beginning to realise that just because he's not Mr. Charisma, that doesn't mean he isn't special in his own way. :)

I realise this has been a bit of a rambling post, particularly from someone who doesn't post here very often, but I wanted to share how I feel with all of you. Today is a special day. Whatever happens in the future, all of us will remember this day forever. Thank you, Andy Murray. :)

Take care... :)

[RoastLamb]

Beautiful post, HenFan!!!

[Sallydaisy]

What a wonderful Wimbledon!!! No longer wacky or weird, just wonderful ...
... sooooooo glad to have been there to watch Andy win The Chamionships!
:trophy:

We were on a packed Court 2 (more comfortable than a square foot of grass on The Hill) and loved every minute of it - apart from the bits that didn't work when we know how hard Andy was trying. The atmosphere was wonderful but boy was it hot; 30 degrees and NO shade.

I'm so pleased for Andy to have finally won the title and hope he enjoys it once the reality has sunk in!!!

Magical, magnificent Murray!

And it's great to have so many like-minded folk on here to share this triumph - and no doubt the murraycoasters to come!

[RoastLamb]

why not, the guy has all the ability in the world and the master of clay has big question marks over his future, I reckon he can do it, and it should be his biggest ambition now as it would be his biggest challenge

Maybe you're right but imho I think it'll be very difficult for him to win it esp. when others are so much more comfortable on the surface.

What's really annoying from today is the amount of petty arguing that's happening on social networking sites about whether Andy is British or Scottish, surely he's both, can't people see that.

haha just watching the highlights and I'd forgotten about the part were bouncey is saying "why didn't Djokovic just stop then and appeal" only for Tim to put him in his place for the millionth time this fortnight with "Because he hasn't got any challenges left" This was shortly followed by bouncey telling Tim that his mum and dad were in the crowd which was the cue for the million and oneth correction when Tim replied "That's not my mum" hahaha

[traveller7]

How odd thats whats on in my room right now I wonder what the result of this match is!?

That game at 4-4 3rd set to break was even more awesome than I thought it was!

1 down 3 to go said Boris in the final game. Yeah, was a bit more difficult than that though!

Great to see Judy tweeting pix from the Wimbly ball.
