Well done, Murray!

Millenium Square has been the meeting spot for around 3000 people to watch in a big screen the Wimbledon final between the Scottish Andy Murray and Serbian Novak Djokovic this afternoon. After 77 years without any Briton winning the title, Murray beat Djokovic with straight-sets victory in the 2013 Wimbledon Men's Singles Final. And for me, the first time to watch an entire tennis match! :)

The Big Screen in Bristol is part of the UK's largest network of screens known as London 2012 live sites aiming to place the excitement of London 2012 Games and nowadays the major sporting and cultural programms are shown on the Big Screen, and of course, the Wimbledon Final too!

Some unconditional tennis fans came very early either to get one of the deckchairs that are available in the square or to set up the picnic area despite the extremely sunny day. Straw hats everywhere, loads of sunscreen, bottles of water...  and glasses of cold and sweet PIMM's to bear the unusual weather. The atmosphere was superb! A great initiation day for me to the tennis world!
