Murray and Djokovic were born a week apart in May 1987, and they’ve known, and competed against, each other since they were about 11. Before Saturday’s semifinal matches, they shared a computer and watched Scotland and Serbia play to a 0-0 draw in a qualifying match for soccer’s World Cup.

It was windy at the start Monday, gusting more than 25 mph, and Murray dealt with it much better. Djokovic admitted after his semifinal he was bothered by heavy wind while falling behind 5-2 in the first set; that’s when play was suspended until the next day, the reason the tournament finished on a Monday instead of Sunday for the fifth consecutive year.
