Murray's backhand costing him today. Only been one or two really good forehands too. The issue here is that when both of these guys are a notch short of their best, Andy drops more than Nole.

 

[Front242]

Gee, this is a long game, Nole messed up 2 break points already, pity.

Stream working now?

yeah, I am able to watch it now, since 3:2 actually. Sorry, I am slow in catching posts when logged here and watching a stream.

Cool. Glad it's working.

Ajde Novak,hurry up in the 2nd set please,I still have womens s/finals matches to watch

 

[Front242]

Murray opening with 0-30 already and my cat came back downstairs and hopped up on my lap.

 

[Front242]

0-40 now.

 

[Front242]

Djokovic up 1-0 already. Hopefully this set is fast.

 

[TennisFanatic7]

Well this was worth getting up for...

Nole is hitting his stride now... that was a sweet point for !5-0 after breaking Andy.

 

[Billie]

What do you mean he can't hit an overhead!!!

He knows I am watching now so he got serious.:lolz:

He didn't get broken while serving for that set, another positive.

Total points in the 2nd set:
Novak - 8
Andy - 0

Yeah, was looking like he would. Glad he didn't 'cos I'm not in the mood for staying up hours to watch this. Quickly up 2-0 already which is good for impending sleep.

 

[Front242]

Hideous from Andy now. 0-30.

 

[Front242]

That was very poor from Novak.

 

[Front242]

Important hold for Murray. Big difference between 2-1 and 3-0.

 

[nehmeth]

Novak loses the plot there and let's Andy back into that game.... :s

 

[Billie]

That was very poor from Novak.

Agree, but at least he was upset at himself for missing those relatively easy backhands.

I don't care as long as he keeps holding serve but it's likely he'll drop one so a double break would've been better.

 

[Front242]

Sweet drop shot.

 

[nehmeth]

What a dropper... wow.

 

[nehmeth]

Murray was hitting the fuzz off that ball, but Novak gets to the dropper.
