Lucky you! The atmosphere must have been electric.

It was a great match and I am glad I stayed up to watch it.

I don't know why they don't start earlier. This happens a lot here (and at the US Open) - wimbledon finals kick off earlier and end earlier. A lot of people would have tottered off to bed half way through the game which is lost audience for advertisers...

The final used to be at 2pm. It was moved to the evening a few years ago for TV (surprise surprise!).

Remember the overseas TV audience is far bigger than ours.

From memory we've only had a few that went past midnight, last night also had a roof closing too.

Most finals have finished between 10-11pm

Fantastic match, good on them both!!
