It's Been 76 Years Since a Briton's Won Wimbledon

At Independent UK, "Everyone for tennis! UK grinds to halt as Murray seeks glory." And, "You can't hurry a Murray, but it has been 76 years":


And at Telegraph UK, "We’re with you, Andy":
Whatever the outcome of today’s contest on Centre Court, Andy Murray has already earned a place in the history books: the first Briton to reach the men’s singles final at Wimbledon since Bunny Austin almost three-quarters of a century ago. Murray’s courage and persistence – as well as outstanding talent – have been rewarded: he now has the opportunity to accomplish an even more historic achievement by emerging as the first British champion since Fred Perry.
