After his four set defeat in the finals of Wimbledon, the host nation's Andy Murray admitted that the defeat was “tough”.

The Scot told reporters, “Today [was] pretty hard, because you're playing in front of a [British] crowd like that. The atmosphere was unbelievable, one of the best I've played in. [My] whole family had come to watch. So, yeah, it's tough.”

Despite being 0-4 in Grand Slam finals, Murray said that he was getting “closer”. He genuinely believes that he put in a much improved performance.
 
“I'd say that's the best I've played in a slam final,” he said. “It wasn't like I gave away bad games or stupid games and stuff. I played a good match. I made pretty good decisions for the most part, so I'm happy with that. I felt more comfortable this morning and before the match than I had done maybe in the previous slams.
