🗞️ News from the Olympic world: oly.ch/News
When you think Murray had lost to Federer in the Wimbledon final just 28 days earlier, this was all the more brilliant. In those 8 days of tennis at the London Olympics Andy was determined to do his bit and win a medal for the team and he really did. He was incredible for the whole tournament. Some will say it was the best he’s ever played, but while he was brilliant and he did play his heart out, I think he was even better during his run to number one in the world in 2016. However, back to this, it was the precursor to the US Open in the August and September of 2012, when Murray beat Djokovic to win his first major and then won his first Wimbledon title against Djokovic in straight sets the following year. Things have been more difficult for Murray in the last few years because of his hip resurface, but videos like this demonstrate that for several years it was not a ‘big three’ it was very much a ‘big four’.
Well said.
This is the clearest image of any tennis coverage on youtube. Shame I had watch it on mute.
Same hear, 6years later.
Watch serena vs sharapova final, you will get same quality
Absolutely shame
Sad that Roger will probably never get an Olympic singles gold medal, but it's brilliant that Murray was able to win this for this for Great Britain while they were hosting
Fed was lucky in the semi's anyway. Andy overplayed him!!! And he will do it twice,at least! And he menage to catch his dream come true,to become number 1,the shortest number 1 ever,but at least he did it,with few points different from Novak! He get out of biggest pressure from his shoulders,which British put on him.. Unfortunately,that run to catch Novak, playing tournament after tournament in the year when Novak made the biggest difference between second and third player,having more then both of them together,with breaking point record cost Murray the highest price!!! He's career,he's health!!! That run ruined him! He will never be able to play tennis like he use to... Sad! He was good competitor! Still trying,but...
@@Coa_Kralj_Coa_The_KingWhat are you talking about 41 weeks as No1 is nowhere near the shortest time ever as a No1.
It became more wonderful when he won a back to back Olympic Title on Rio 2016.
@@phyrruskarimarmalgold3660 very true.
It was also his redemption from Wumbleton
Of course, a few months later Murray wound up winning his first slam at the US Open and the next year Murray finally ended Britain's Wimbledon drought. What really made it sweet for me is that he beat Federer.
ino incredible
To fix the sound: Bring up two windows of the this (snap to either side)rv Pause one just before the first serve Mute it (video) Put the other (sound) 5 seconds behind. then play both (may have to give yourself an extra second to click both) If video is still off stop and start video version while letting sound play until its synced if you go to far do the same with sound.
MrJamesyboi121 thanks
How to fix the COMMENTATOR that is out of sync? Just horrible work from Olympics.
Loved that lovely touch from stand when he gave that young lad a big hug
One of the best days of my life,bless his wonderful heart ❤❤
You still haven't fixed the sound. impressive.
and five years later, still unfixed
@@benparsons4979 ììòòòò
I’m in this crowd! Still one of my all-time favorite sports events. 🇺🇸 (me) rooting for team 🇬🇧! Been a Murray fan ever since. This was the start.
Wow! You were lucky!
can;t watch with the sound out of sync =[
Pirate Dog q
It's a distraction. Sounds like a Wimbledon thing when another Match is going on within another nearby Court.
Pirate Dog it is a delay. At the end they start celebrating about 3-5 seconds before he actually wins
If you play two (of these KZhead) videos at the same time, make one mute and set 5 seconds behind the other, then they are in sync. A bit of fine tuning may be needed. I got it spot on in under a minute.
@@tabascocat5102 Did that open in two tabs thing. Worked. Then found out that even the COMMENTATOR is out of sync. Horrible work from Olympics.
This is great! The entire match in HD. Absolutely love it! Thank you.
have to watch this again, the atmosphere is awesome. Andy is awesome
Ten years on, and I'd still say this was arguably the best match Murray's played in his whole career.
He destroyed Federer.
@@sanjay59741 absolutely
😅Roger was exhausted from above 4 hours long match vs del potro
@@Ycdpsarti You think this is what Rodger would say lol This is why you have achieved nothing in life, excuses
His Wimbledon win against Djokovic the following year was better. Plus his win against Delpo at the Rio Olympics final.
Never gets old watching Andy win!!
Love Federer but the moment belonged to Sir Andy. Game well played. Love Andy too 🥰🙌🏾
Thanks Olympic for such great synchronization
People moaning Federer was tired due to his long semi final seem to be forgetting while Murray won his semi final quicker against Novak he played 3 mixed doubles matches before the final including two on Saturday when Fed had his feet up so if anyone was tired Murray had more of an argument.
But Federer is way older.
Sir Alexander lol, He was just 29 that year.
So what, ¿do you think is the same? And actually it was one month to his 30.
Sir Alexander dont just be a Fedtard . That is all I wanna tell u.
¿What? You're just a dumbass if you think that a 25 years old guy has no advantage against a 30 years old man who played a 4 four match the day before.
proud moment for us brits, then wimbledon final to follow the next year.great times for brit tennis. never thought i would see that day come
I believe you!!! You were waiting from last century 😁
the sound for this is STILL out. after all these years !
0:00 start 9:51 first severe 47:36 first set 2:06:20 Golden point 2:06:34 WIN For Murray
Love watching this amazing Andy 😊
I wish Andy would play like this all the time. never seen this game before it was really brilliant.
honestly he played average, but Roger was totally exhausted from SF against JMPD
Except Del Potro beat Djokovic the guy who lost to Federer in the semis, who should have been fresh from his straight sets defeat to Murray, makes alot of sense yeah? Federer was raped!
Brian Lorne Del Potro was 23, Federer almost 31...
Sandra Smith well he has played better, much better since and that's why he is world No1 now
@@151bar151 Did you hear the commentary. Murray played mixed doubles that day before and men's doubles the same morning of the final. Don't try and put down his performance by saying he only won because Federer was tired. Murray was tired too.
Both are my Hero for years.Still,Murray tears drop,so do I.
Roger always keeps smile even he loses. In my opinion he will for ever be the winner in tennis world
That’s not always the case! He literally cried when he lost against Nadal in AO finals 2010. And he was a sore loser against Djokovic after US open semifinals 2011 (watch the post-match interview). Just to name a few instances..
Cry about it, puss@@digitalelya9097
@@digitalelya9097 thats just two of like 50 cases haha
Our feeling is the way we share Victory,keep the Glory.
fix the damn sound...wed ye
I just open two windows, and manually sync them :P
I did that, but then the bloody window started playing an advert. Infuriating.
@@mooseandspade6251 true, back when I commented youtube didnt have those. Try adblock for youtube :-)
Bro u need a scholarship to Harvard
awfull sound !!!!!!
Aww the wee boy asking for a hug. Soo cute
Prior to Gold Medal Match, Andy Murray and Roger Federer fought also in Wimbledon in the same court. The win of Murray was called, the Revenge in Wimbledon.
I cnat imagine the nerves and feelings going through them while they rally before the game starts. You are literally warming up with your opponent, that must be nerve racking!
A fit Murray was a top top player!!!!!
To watch in sync use two windows , mute the sound on one window and put a 6 second delay on the other, watch the muted browser, in sync et voila!
Smart
yep, but 5 sec delay is nice, not 6
One year later Murray won Wimbledon!
Crazy that Federer only won 3 more Grand Slams after this
Thank you!
Thanks for all andy
awwww, tthat kid at the end lol askin andy for a hug :)
Bro at the beginning bodied all other events 😂 legend Murray. Especially so soon after the crushing Wimbledon final loss
2021 during covid still reliving this.
re-upload plz
Bravo.. Sir Andrew Barron Murray..
Be sure to message the Olympic youtube channel so we can get a re-upload on this. Absolutely precious moment in tennis!
AWESOME ANDY! you have waited a long time for this ENJOY!! tGOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR COUNTRY! YOU DESERVE THIS BECAUSE OF YOUR LOVE FOR TENNIS AND YOUR SCOTLAND. Excellent you tube but I had to watch it muted as well. Reasons are because reasons are! God Bless you RF. X O
Scotland boy saving British tennis 😂🤡👊
@@Coa_Kralj_Coa_The_King I guess you're Serbian / Croatian whatever? Sad your country hasn't won a GOLD in Olympics in Tennis?
I may have my favorites in a lot of sports, but when any event comes along, I’ll always be secretly rooting for players to win in their home countries😉
Love love love Andy x
You can't NOT love Andy. He's a great lad!
Play video in tab1 and audio is tab2. Run tab2 5 seconds behind tab1. Watch match on tab1.
Andy and Federer respect.
Just Sweet to Watch!.
1:10:04 what a backhand by Murray! and hugely important as it set up the game point that he then won to hold on to the break. Huge point cos it was such a long deuce game.
Great match - Andy played out of his socks during those Olympics - I have seen him dismatling a few players when his game is 'on' - but this was his most convincing win against another member of the fab four . Well done Andy Murray :)
Yeah, he really played his socks off in this match - and he deserved his win.
They were only and only Big 3!!! Desperate trying to put Murray near the greatest three players of all time from British is so delusional!!! Or maybe Wawrinka is there as well,with 3GS?😂 There's the greatest tennis player who ever lived,Novak Đoković,Nadal,and protected lovely cry baby Fed. End of story!!! Murray was great player,one of my favourite,but milestones away from Novak and the rest two members of big three!!!
The glory man these world-class sportsmen know what the real glory and adulation is and they deserve it
Incredible. His story, and at home. But beautiful
Outstanding by muzza, interesting commentary!
Great. So happy Murray won!!!!!
Yeah!!! Andy Murray
*Legend. 2 Golden Medals.*
Wow, what a great moment for London sports fans...congrats to Andy...a great champion. Center court was completely wore out before they started. Andy was gold here and next year at Wimbledon and in 2016 also....the greatest English male player ever at least since Perry.
English?
Great picture, couldn't be better but it's all out of sync, it's useless. I don't think an official DVD has ever been recorded of this final, only the Wimbledon final ever was between these two.
yes, it's a shame that the sound is so out of sync with the video... :(
i thought it was just this pc that was wrong. And yes- the highlights are on the BBC Olympics DVD. Well worth getting for this-and the 2 brilliant ceremonies
Luis Pato
What a great games!
Three fantastic tennis players, three champions...!
It was definitely weird watching tennis at the Wimbledon facilities and the players not wearing white.
kevg715 It is wierd, but their suits are to represent their respective country.
I don't see anything weird about it. They look FINE
I remember watching this live, was a proud day to be a Brit and a tennis fan!
Yeah, when Scotland Man was saving British people from decades frustration... From last century,Fred Perry time... He made you proud even becoming number one. Shortest number one in history of tennis but still... Unfortunately,he paid the highest price, health and career.
Wonderful time for Murray
The Daily Mail had two planned headlines. Scot loses final. Brit wins final. This was Andy's personal victory. He beat the best player in the games history in a big final. AM is not as naturally gifted as RF, but he earned this victory.
Scots just hate the english they hate the thought of us rightfuly chearing for the Brit Andy Murray.I bet you have cheared for a brit that aint Scottish. Why not chear for Hamilton or Jess Ennis? Afterall they are Birts you know
colin reed I'm Southern Irish. I cheer (two Es, not ea, sorry) any athlete from the British Isles. I like the Brits. My order of cheering is:- Those from Eire. Those from Ireland. Those from Britain. I love England v Ireland in Rugby. Players battle hard on the field, & then everyone celebrates together. No malice. We'll get you next year, hopefully. :-)
Haha im only messing too bro yeah good luck with you're sportsman. Hope we both do well. Aint we on diff sides of draw? Im sure you have NZ tho so good luckw ith that mate:)
colin reed We'll need it. I love watching Southern Hemisphere players play. Beating England is great. Beating the All Blacks is heaven. You're a nice guy Colin.
***** Unlucky with the NO vote haha lmfao.Youre British ok
amazing federrer...
Federer. The most graceful player to take the court, probably the best player to watch. After Dustin Brown obviously.
Murray in his prime was fantastic He gets forgotten as the big three went on to build bigger resumes But for a minute, Murray was able to battle the best of them Schooled Federer here on grass Blasted Djokovic in the final later on the grass at Wimbledon
Epic the grass made it through Wimbledon and Olympics. How did they manage that?
Really upset that its all out of sync. Really wanted to watch this again!
How can an official Olympic channel not be bothered to upload the gold match with proper sound.
because federer did not win.
The sound situation...lorrrrrrrdhamercy
And then he went and won Wimbledon the year after. The Best “Scottish” tennis player of all time in my opinion
awesome
we often talk about Djokovic Federer Nadal and forget about the extraordinary things that Andy Murray did
crazy
when the commentator shouts he sounds like tobuscus doing a funny voice
Murry outshined in both Olympic Years. 2012 & 2016
Anyone know why Ivan Ledl wasn't in the box during this match, was it only GB coaches allowed?
Sunday 5th August 2012
I'm British and Federer is my favorite player. Wimbledon 2012 and the Olympic Games 2012 were both hard to watch.
Murray es un gran tenista no entiendo xk no gana mas torneos
He reminds me of Adam Ondra when he smiles like in the thumbnail
I always look at this match and it’s Murray being compensated for Wimbledon in 2012 and winning US open after the gold medal
oui Andy mérite le plus
Audio is out of sync with Video. Can anybody fix this? Please. Most of the tennis videos are out of sync.
Still dont understand hiw Federer didnt even get a set in this match. Murray is just a beast at the olympics
did the camera really cut to Federer just before Andy could hug his mother??!?!?!
who was the one hug with Andy on 2:08:38
roger :la classe
No se puede ver asi, fuera de sincro el audio con respecto al video, el partido de federer del potro lo mismo!!!
what's the name of background music which starts at 2:45 ?
Annoying that this goes out of sync at the end so it can't be fully enjoyed. Can it be re-posted?
The boy could play
this is the official olympic channel and you can't get sound to sync?!
They had played many times in different situations. Do you know head to head record?
It's 2021. Still didn't fix it. Impressive.
we watch him go down the whole row hugging trainers, family, gf, (gets to his mom)----------cut away lulz
SOOOOO gutted for Roger!!
Can someone fix the sound ?
