Live commentary on Five Live. Can I bear to listen?

The last match I listened to in the morning (as in, what most people consider night) was last year’s final. I distinctly remember hearing the commentator say that Sampras was incapable of moving sideways, and that if Agassi could just get a hold of the ball properly he’d win. But he didn’t, because Sampras is a legend who almost always beat Agassi (a great player in his own right) on the big occassion.

I will listen. Yes. Even if the first set is 6-0 to Roddick. I couldn’t bear to miss it if it went right.

Well, that was not so good. Apart from the second set, which he reallyh should have won, Henman wasn’t in the match.
