Go go goooo

by Henman Bill Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:39 pm

Only non slam tournament with semis/final friday/sunday for men's singles?

by CaledonianCraig Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:41 pm

A better service game from Novak who looks to be settling and he lads 3-2. Like how Murray is getting his big shots off pretty quick but would like more variety.

by ZZ Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:42 pm

Err Indian Wells? it was only last wk

by Haddie-nuff Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:43 pm

Yes would I Novak is reading Andy's game too well for my liking

by Jahu Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:45 pm

That's it, humiliate him.

by CaledonianCraig Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:45 pm

Wow what a hot streak of winners from Andy. Very Happy

by Jahu Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:46 pm

Break him now, BREAK!!!

by CaledonianCraig Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:46 pm

Just what he needed - a hold to love. 3-3.

Brilliant

by Haddie-nuff Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:48 pm

come on Andy I can hear the cage rattling

by CaledonianCraig Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:48 pm

One thing is certain - Andy MUST win the first set. He has never beaten Novak after losing the first set.

by Jahu Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:48 pm

Oh baby, keep it up.

by CaledonianCraig Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:49 pm

And a break to love - Muzza leads 4-3.

Those 3 points in a row were dazzling.

by Haddie-nuff Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:50 pm

Andy hold

by Danny_1982 Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:50 pm

I would always back Novak in a war of attrition... But a war of attrition in the hot sun? I always think he's a touch more vulnerable.

by Henman Bill Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:52 pm

IW semis on saturday, maybe Miami is alone in having a rest day after semis.

by CaledonianCraig Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:52 pm

Oh dear.

Another break on its way?

by CaledonianCraig Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:54 pm

And Novak breaks and we are back on serve at 4-4. Loose game from Andy frustratingly.

by Jahu Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:54 pm

Wtf is going on, no one can hold serve.

by Henman Bill Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:55 pm

remember murray is Scottish, to him this is like playing in the sahara desert in July at high noon.

by Haddie-nuff Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:55 pm

That's it Andy come inside

by Haddie-nuff Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:57 pm

[quote="Henman Bill"]remember murray is Scottish, to him this is like playing in the sahara desert in July at high noon.[/quote

He doesn't spend much time there does he.. and I don't think its a lot better for a Serbian is it ??? Wink

by CaledonianCraig Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:57 pm

Novak holds serve with comfort to lead 5-4 and Murray will serve to stay in the set and if previous history is anything to go by he will be serving to save the match. Erm

by Danny_1982 Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:58 pm

And there's the Murray lull. 2 games where he's just mentally wandered off. And that is the difference.

by Haddie-nuff Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:58 pm

Don't lose heart yet CC

by CaledonianCraig Sun 05 Apr 2015, 6:59 pm

Haddie-nuff wrote:Don't lose heart yet CC

I definitely will if Novak wins this set. Hard not to with those stats against him.

by CaledonianCraig Sun 05 Apr 2015, 7:02 pm

Murray holds....phew.

by CaledonianCraig Sun 05 Apr 2015, 7:05 pm

Novak serving from the difficult end just now and looks set to hold comfortably. Andy's turn next at that end.

by CaledonianCraig Sun 05 Apr 2015, 7:06 pm

Novak leads 6-5. Again you feel Muzza must hold. If he loses this set he can only blame himself as he has broken twice only to hand it back. Frustrating.

by Haddie-nuff Sun 05 Apr 2015, 7:06 pm

by Jahu Sun 05 Apr 2015, 7:07 pm

Wake up Andy, don't be scared man, if you can't beat a tired Djoko, wtf can you do.

by Born Slippy Sun 05 Apr 2015, 7:07 pm

First hold from the sunny end, absolutely gifted by Murray. Think that will probably be the set now. Novak won't be so generous.

by CaledonianCraig Sun 05 Apr 2015, 7:07 pm

A tired Djoko?? Eh? Doh

by Jahu Sun 05 Apr 2015, 7:09 pm

CC, DJoko ain't even 85%, come on, you can see him how he is breathing and moving.

by Jahu Sun 05 Apr 2015, 7:10 pm

Thats the BH, USE IT!!!!

by Haddie-nuff Sun 05 Apr 2015, 7:10 pm

Cat and Mouse

Wow what a rally. 0-30 and Muzza clinging on and back to 30-30

by Jahu Sun 05 Apr 2015, 7:12 pm

DJoko with some Monaco Casino luck boxing

by CaledonianCraig Sun 05 Apr 2015, 7:13 pm

Muzza holds on by his fingertips and its 6-6 and tiebreak time.

by Jahu Sun 05 Apr 2015, 7:13 pm

Good hold Andy, now get that First serve in the TB, you girl.

by Haddie-nuff Sun 05 Apr 2015, 7:16 pm

Way behind the base line again Shocked

by CaledonianCraig Sun 05 Apr 2015, 7:16 pm

Djoko racing away with the tiebreak and leads 4-1.

by Jahu Sun 05 Apr 2015, 7:20 pm

Andy FH is dead.

by CaledonianCraig Sun 05 Apr 2015, 7:21 pm

And Novak takes the tiebreak relatively comfortably 7-3.

by Jahu Sun 05 Apr 2015, 7:21 pm

First set Djoko, Andy needs a slap left and right for ffs.

by Henman Bill Sun 05 Apr 2015, 7:22 pm

meh, weak shots into the net, Murray not strong enough behind serve in the tiebreak either. I wonder how many points on his serve murray won in the TB, less than half maybe.

by LuvSports! Sun 05 Apr 2015, 7:22 pm

Game over

by CaledonianCraig Sun 05 Apr 2015, 7:23 pm

A very tight set that so at least Andy made him work for it. The difference? Novak took his chances whilst Andy didn't.
