Originally posted by dang65 View PostYeah, he reached eight Wimbledon quarter-finals, and went through to four semi-finals. Greg Rusedski reached one semi-final. I don't know why they keep trying to rename Henman Hill to "Murray Mount" or whatever. It should always be Henman Hill after that whole era when he was the great British hope at Wimbledon.Comment

I must admit I was interested to see the news about Laura Robson being the 14 year old "British Champion"... keen to see if this meant English or God forbid a Scot it took some digging to find out she was born in Melbourne and came here when she was six... another import! why can't we produce native talent after all the millions pumped into grass roots tennis?Comment

If a PM constantly failed to put a project to bed either on time or to budget, or a programmers' apps always corrupted data, would they be hailed as shining examples of their crafts, have things named after them, or have their actions (or lack of) defended by people who don't even know them personally?
I suspect not.
