Brilliant recovery from Federer.
Billshit that last game... Murray won it
Why didn't Murray appeal when Federer hit that backhand slice long?
He would need to have stopped that point right at that point. Some players would have queried it after a few hits - Credit to Murray for his sportsmanship.
Their are players on the circuit who are known to query points well after the point has been played and precedent was set in France where an umpire allowed Monfils query a point after 10 hits after.
Must players don't like it, but some do it and it is considered unsportsmanlike
He probably still thought he'd win the point, plus he was 0-40 up.
All the more reason to take a gamble on a dodgy call. Nothing to lose.
feck off Petchy.
