I WAS sitting on a wall, listening on my transistor radio to what rather predictably turned out to be the closing stages of the Wimbledon men’s singles final.

A short while later a jovial chap approached me, stating that the last he had heard was that Dvorák (I think he meant Novak Djokovic) was two sets down.

I inevitably pointed out that this was nonetheless an outstanding sporting achievement for someone who was most noted for his musical compositions and in fact passed away over a century ago.

Anyway, I wholeheartedly agree with David Cameron that Andy Murray deserves a knighthood.
