And Andy Murray through - very quickly and efficiently by the looks of it.

Raonic, Nishikori and then Dimitrov on Court 2 could be very interesting for the audience - can Dimitrov possibly come through against Chela and make a 3 round Masters appearance?

You're sweet laver, but mine is rubbish and this thread is so much better

I thought you might not be around today so I cobbled together something, but as you can see I didn't try too hard

comfortable win for Murray despite what I assume was a lapse in concentration in each set where he lost his serve when a break up. Still breaking 5 times out of 8 attempts is pretty good, though I doubt he'll do quite so well there against Raonic

I think the word 'Vice' should be in the title somewhere.

Oh p**h - I didn't see the match, was just flicking over to the ATP site every couple of minutes to check scores - just assumed it was as straightforward as the scoreboard suggested.

I am really looking forward to the Raonic vs Murray match.

Thanks for the thread LF. Hope to be posting many right up to next Sunday

The Melzer and Haase match looks v competitive.

Tipsy and Nalby have just begun!

Melzer beats Haase.

Melzer

But Jo Willy is a break down He is not on particularly good form atm!

Back on serve for JwT. Malisse is a bit up and down.

Are there any live streams, or are you all gone mad and commenting live scores

Don't get carried away there's still a few matches to play until we see Roger and Rafa.

Tipsy beats Nalbandian. Very interesting.

yes not the result I wanted.

Still v well done Tipsy

Tipsy and Melzer....two enigmatic and relatively charismatic players on tour (well, for an Austrian in Melzer's case...lol)
Shame for Dave after the good showing last week.

Well done to both

PS> Maybe extra incentive for Jurgen as he's defending SF from last year...

I set all Davy and Isner - I just can't help myself NITB

Another very good win for Heather Watson, demolishing n°27 seed Lucie Safarova 6-2 6-1

Bondarenko has 18 double faults so far, 1 set all.

Dimitrov wins.

Fantastic to see Dimitrov through to 3rd round, and Nishikori too.

Very well done Heather Watson - what a brilliant surprise!

Heather did well its a shame she'll barely win more than 2 games in next match.

Tip of the day = Stebe to beat Gasqueeeeeeee
