Additionally, Milos is also playing for £1 million for a total of £2 million if he defeats Murray.

Never been a fan of Murray as his on court demeanour has always been terrible and he's simply a hard guy to cheer for. I suppose though if Raonic is going to win this tournament no better way than beating a British man in front of a partisan crowd. Going to be very difficult though.

So happy for Raonic. Such an easy guy to cheer for. Really hope he can beat Murray on Sunday. Going to be tough no question, but I think he can find that extra gear and get it done. Looking forward to the match I'll be up early to watch it.

I found it comical that Milos signed autographs for adults after the game while the previous matches he autographs were all for kids. No kids in sight this morning.
Not sure which feed TSN will pick up tomorrow, but McEnroe is on espn for the final.

Yeah but if Milos wins then Murray isn't British, he's a bloody Scot!

British means from Britain, as in Great Britain, as in England/Scotland/Wales.
He is not English though.

I was referring to the way the English sports media portrays him: British when he wins, Scottish when he loses. Hence the "if Milos wins" qualifier.

Really needed Berdych to win to make it on Centre for the final. Ticket prices didn't really go down with Andy winning, they just didn't go up 3-5 times like they would have had Roger been in the final. I'll still probably go down to the grounds to watch on the hill and maybe catch the Boys final depending where it is. As to the match itself, just don't see Andy losing unless he seriously chokes, and there isn't pressure on him really like there would be if he didn't win in 2013. He's playing very well and outside his walkabout against Tsonga has pretty much cruised through this tournament. Milos needs to hit an even higher level than he did against Roger and I just don't see it. Andy wins in 4 sets.

Found elsewhere.

1. This is the first Wimbledon final without Federer, Nadal or Djokovic since 2002.

2. This is the first time Murray is playing someone other than Federer or Djokovic in a major final.

3. Raonic is the first Canadian man to reach a Grand Slam final.

4. Raonic is also the first man born in the ‘90s to reach a major final.

5. Supercoach Ivan Lendl, who is back with Murray, was 21-15 lifetime against Raonic's new mentor, John McEnroe
