Murray is such a loving garbageman. Really wish this was Raonic.

One day.

At least Andy looks like he's remember how to play tennis a bit.

Serbs are basically neo-Nazis so it's probably a picture of Hitler with the 'tache rubbed off.

Murray's forehand is Djokovic's best shot.

Think Murray will have wanted to win that service game from 40-0 up.

Hopefully this match is fixed for Andy to come back from two sets and a break down to win a first AO title.

From Wertheim's column over at SI.com:

1976 prices:
Gallon of gas: $.59
Gallon of milk: $1.65
Winner’s check, Australian Open: $7,500

Those prices today, if adjusted for inflation
Gallon of gas: $2.49
Gallon of milk: $6.98
Australian Open prize money: $32,000

Actual 2016 prices:
Median price, gallon of gas: $2.27
Median price, gallon of milk: $3.38
Australian Open singles champion prize money: $3,400,000—and that’s with a weak Aussie dollar!
