Hi, I'm like you and you're listening to the tennis podcast.

Andy Murray, I just have been trying to put it into words, but still trying to come up with the best way of just trying to describe it.

But he is a phenomenal competitive animal. I mean, it's unreal.

Well, hello, welcome to the tennis podcast on a day where Great Britain has reached the semifinals of the Davis Cup by BMP Power Bar for the first time in 34 years.

Andy Murray wasn't even born in 1981 when Great Britain were last at that stage.

And what a tie to look forward to because the opponents in September will be Australia who came back valiantly from two love down for only the second time in their history to win three, two, and well, there's a member of the Queens Club here who's just wandering out to the exit.

A little bit over excited, making quacking duck noises with a little whistle, Catherine Whitaker, because that's simply in that kind of atmosphere here at the Queens Club over the last few days.

The other semifinals will be Belgium against Argentina, but this time, particular at the Queens Club, has had a bit of everything, hasn't it, including from the position of seeming strength of 2-1 overnight.

Andy Murray had to dig as deep as I think I've seen him have to dig certainly since the Wimbledon final when Jockovich was putting pressure on him in the third set.

This one required every last drop of energy and resolve he'd got left because he'll seem on played fantastic for set win though in the end.

Yeah, and I think that Andy Murray thinks that that overnight position of strength was rather over-egged.

I think he feels like people were talking as if it was in the bag when it actually wasn't.

He still had to play the world number 11, and I sensed a bit of annoyance from him about that.

It was sort of considered a foregone conclusion that Andy Murray could just go out there and take care of Jilsim on.

As he pointed out in the press conference just now, Jilsim on absolutely what was the verb he used for Jilsim on did to Thomas Birdic on grass at Wimbledon a couple of weeks ago.

It was a rather harsh word for beating somebody. Absolutely mulled him.

That's not what he said, but something like that. He absolutely killed Thomas Birdic in Wimbledon.

Lest we forget that. He gave a very good description of why Jilsim on is so darn difficult to play.

He said, the better you play, the better it makes him play.

How blue and annoying must that be? I can't imagine anything more frustrating than that.

You start playing brilliantly and all it does is absolutely if you're opponent.

Especially if you're not feeling your best. I mean, Andy Murray went out there and he looked as if, frankly, if I didn't know any better, I'd have thought he'd got a hangover.
