Boris Becker: "[Andy Murray] lost to a better player today. Most successful tennis player of all time and there's no shame in losing to Roger Federer."

Richard Krajicek: "Murray brought his A game but it wasn't enough. He had chances but the momentum of the match changed."

Pat Cash: "I don't think anyone can be called the greatest of all time but it is amazing that Federer is back at No 1. He has gone back to the drawing board. It is starting to click now and he is more aggressive. As long as he stays fit he is almost unstoppable."

Tiger Woods: "Hats off to Murray for a great fight. But we saw why Fed is the #GOAT."

Michael Owen: "Great final. Murray can hold his head high. Beaten by a legend."
