Wimbledon 2013

 
Andy Murray ( a player who is not my favourite) finally won his Wimbledon men's single title, a result which I did not expect. I have to admit that Andy rightfully deserved the championship because he played a superb match - straight sets against world No. 1, Novak Djokovic.
 

Novak was powerless to neutralise the powerful groundstrokes from Andy. Novak did try other tactical moves liked slides and drop shots but they too had little impact on Andy.

With this win, Andy Murray is assured of his place in history. No matter how he is going to perform in future, he will from now on be declared a sports legend as far as Great Briton is concerned!

The women's double was won by an unlikely pair: Peng Shuai of Communist China and Hsieh Su-Wei of Taiwan. This augers well for the sports partnership and even diplomatic relationship of these two neighbours.
 
 
Sabine Lisicki, the giants killer failed to live up to the expectation of her many new found admirers and succumbed to the might of Marion Bartoli who went on to win the women's single.
