Queens Tennis 2017 (Spoilers)

Murray's currently a set and a break down in the first round to wild card Jordan Thompson.

He's not playing well, looks woefully short of confidence and strength and has made life extremely easy for his opponent but the way John Lloyd is describing the match you would think Thompson is playing the best tennis in the history of tennis.

Edit: 2 breaks, this is an embarrassing performance tbh.

Edit: 7-6, 6-2. Murray just gave up in the second set.

Also Wawrinka and Raonic are out too, this seems to have been a good day for the underdogs in mens tennis. I guess we'd better hope that Murray feels well rested for Wimbledon then.

Pigeon and I can hope he's well rested. You can hope he fails miserably.

Yeah, hoping he has another amazing tournament but baring the French Open his season has been catastrophic.

Genuinely thought he had a chance of winning Queens but his serve was worse than it was at the French and his forehand was as bad as I had ever seen it.

Some time off before Wimbledon might do him the world of good but he'll no doubt just push himself harder

As for the tournament, I would've probably put money on Cilic after events yesterday so I expect him to get beaten after Tsonga also got knocked out today.
