SOUTH WEST N-N-N-N-19

Henman wins - the nation celebrates.

"Bare-knuckle scrap builds strength for future battles"

"By vanquishing last year's beaten finalist in such an enthralling epic Henman banished any remaining doubts about the strength of his character and put himself in good heart for whatever the rest of the week may hold."

Or...

Poor Nalbandian, crap serve and all, struggled to overcome the highly partisan crowd and an energised (by that crowd) opponent. Your views?

For once I'd like to see Henman off the show courts to see if he can win without the crowd's passion that must raise his game.

Thanks to the rain delayed start, BBC execs must have wet themselves: Henman on centre court, tense match, prime time viewing.
