Great ladies singles final that was.
Puig beat Kerber.

Puerto Rico's first ever gold medal.

Men's final tonight then. Andy Murray of GB v Juan Martin del Potro of Argentina.

Del boy beat Rafa last night in an epic deciding tie break that wasn't easy to watch flicking between there and the velodrome finals.

This will be a fairly testy final for Andy v a S American opponent who has previously won a major tourney. However, I still expect him to 'make history' tonight in front of a predominantly Brazilian crowd that will back him in front of an Argentinian opponent. It could well be another epic match!

First set to Murray 7-5

4-6 Del Potro - Andy in a dogfight v a guy whose 1st service successful deliveries are phenomenally high! 1-1 and game on!

Yassss! Andy goes 2-1 up - 6-2, 3rd set and looking strong at the right time! Thumb up
