CONGRATS to Roger Federer on his 7th Wimbledon title!
Great game by a great player and fellow Rolex WIS!
Strange to see Andy Murray crying, he should be used to losing by now Looks like Federer is wearing a YG Day-Date

Andy improved a lot with Lendl, hopefully he'll win a slam soon.

Roger played it well, despite the early chatter of his being "over the hill" at 31!

A spoiler alert would have been nice. The final is on the tube right now in the States.

Agreed. No sense in ruining it for everyone who can't watch it live by putting the results in the title.

How could people know it wasn't on live in other countries? It has happened, so it can be commented upon. I appreciate it must be frustrating, but avoiding clicking on a thread about the issue may alleviate the problem!

Obviously not. A spoiler alert is announced to avoid disclosing a result to give others time to view a topic and not be notified in advance of seeing it! He very well couldn't have commented on an outcome that didnt happen yet, now could he? Unless of course, hes clairvoyant. Secondly, one doesnt need to click on the thread, it was in his Title! Anyone who hasnt had a chance to see the match live had the results w/o clicking on the thread. Not putting it in the title would have worked just fine. |

Making a thread is fine but there is no need to post the results of the competition in the title of the thread. It ruins it for everyone who has not yet seen it, either because it has not yet aired in their country or because they have recorded it to watch later.

I thought it was the Everose Day-Date, the newer bigger version of the day-date.

I think anyone would who is financially responsible. That is a lot of money to wear a watch! He can secretly wear whatever he wants when he is home.
