The Murray-Nadal tennis US Open semi final has resumed in New York (and on Radio 5 Live, plus BBC website).  Damn patriotism!  My hommoerotic instincts rule.  I'm rooting for Rafa.

Additional 2205: Nadal has won the third set 6-4

Additional 2315 But, as you probably know by now Murray wins the fourth set and the match.

STOP PRESS FLASH:  Prime Minister Gordon Brown stayed up late to watch the game at home on TV, and said: "It was a fabulous performance by Andy Murray and a fantastic victory."

Downing Street is sending Murray a message of good luck for the final.

It's those little gestures that make the difference.
