Olympic gold to Andy Murray

by Jonas Eriksson

After more than four hours of gruelling tennis, Andy Murray won his second Olympic gold medal after beating Juan Martin Del Potro in the final 7-5, 4-6, 6-2, 7-5. It was a thriller of a match, but you couldn’t help but feel that Murray, with his easier road to the final and outstanding physique, would outlast the tall and gunslinging Argentine in the end.

But no matter if Murray showed that he might soon be ready to be the number one player in the world, the story of the Olympics was surely Del Potro who after years of struggling with wrist injuries managed to get back on the court and way more than that, won a silver medal for himself and his country.

Big congrats to both players.
