Not really, considering they’re hosting the tournament.

No - that's pretty much how it was for him during the early part of his career. It got a bit better after 2012 but he basically embodies the typical vision of a sour-faced Scotsman. 

Wasn't there a whole internet page with a Murraymeter or something, ranging from all the way British to all the way Scottish, depending on his results?  

 

With the English of course claiming him as their God whenever he'd win, and dropping him like a Scottish stone when losing

tbh, it's less than expected

 

among the women, they just did the bare minimum (and they even took too many risks, with Charaabi being way worse than her previous outings suggested)

 

among the men, Lenzi is a great surprise (but he deserved the qualification from start to finish, Today he destroyed a Russian darling fighting for the very rich Bahrein like Latypov...he might even win a shocking medal for us in Paris, if he gets a good draw), but Malanga and Serra flopped big time

 

we can say that we're still 1 quota place behind schedule (and I fear that we're done...Serra will regret for the rest of his life the robbery against him at the European Games)
