Gold, not tears, this time for Murray
For Britain's Andy Murray every cloud has a golden lining. Four weeks after the Scot cried his eyes out after losing to Switzerland's majestic Roger Federer in his first Wimbledon final, he returned to a sunlit Centre Court to exact sweet revenge and walk off with an Olympic gold medal. Murray is yet to win a grand slam title, the real hard currency for tennis players, but on Sunday he produced the match of his life, riding the wave of Olympic euphoria sweeping across the land to thrash the world number one 6-2 6-1 6-4.
