You tell 'em Polby, you tell 'em !
Murray may be a slow learner, but he is learning from the right guy:
"Great Britain's Tennis gold medal prospect Andy Murray has revealed that Njovak Djokovic crying in Beijing is providing the inspiration for the Scotsman to claim gold in London.
Murray was speaking just ten days after the bittersweet experience of a first Wimbledon final, the British No.1 will be aiming to go one better at the All England Club for the Olympics.
“I’m really excited about competing at Wimbledon for Team GB this summer," Murray said.
"I remember Novak Djokovic winning bronze in Beijing and crying on the podium because it meant so much to him, and that’s how us tennis players feel when we’re representing our nations.
“I was a bit disappointed with how I performed in Beijing so I don’t want to let this chance slip by. I want to make sure I’ve prepared properly and given myself the best chance to win a medal. You saw how much it meant to the players who won medals in Beijing and the Olympics is considered to be a huge tennis competition now, so I’d love to win a medal."

Let's be clear on this issue: one thing is the way a player and the wider public (and I mean by that not only tennis fans or experts) feel about an event, one completely different thing is the objective prestige and importance of an event.
The first thing might be infuenced by nationalistic and personal issues like obviously is the case of the Olympics, that little or nothing have to do with the history of a sport.
Divac does the back-paddling today: apparently "racquet-sawing" was all a metaphor
How did he find a hacksaw at the All England club?
It didn't happen at the club but at the house he was staying at during the Olympics . I'm assuming he must've visited the shed
