Wow...40-0 for Milos and Kei breaks. He won 2 games in a row from 0-40 down. Back on serve.

Pretty awesome display there in set 4 by Stan. Was expecting Robredo to win but Stan was far too good at the end. Losing the 3rd set TB screwed Robredo. Didn't think it would be then again, if he'd won it and even if Stan had won set 4, we'd still have had a 5th set.

The 3rd set TB was a big decider.

It is sad. Because what happens afterwards is that they say "Oh he is just serve, he cannot move, etc..." without watching a full match and never seeing the kids improvement from year to year. But to each its own. I cannot handle watching Nole-Murray without serious caffeine intake for example.

Milos breaks to win the first set.

He is definitely improving in his return game. I actually looked at his return stat. His
return stat are better than Karlovic's and Isner's added together.

But, I never could learn to like Milos.

I am watching his improvement from match to match, not from year to year. And the rest of the tennis fans who dislike him, oh well, they will have to live with it, because he will be a fixture in the top 10 from here on, the top 10, no question about it.

I'm at home working, I would love to watch the match but I can't. But with Murat's comments I can follow it a bit. Maybe if I finish in time I can still watch some... and I am pretty sure that when I turn on the TV the first thing I'll see will be a lousy, lousy backhand... you know, Murphy's law.

Aren't you from Canada? just asking.

Am I the only one who just doesn't see it in Milos?

A DF gives the first break of the second set to Kei. Kei is having success against Milos's second serve and Milos is not serving a lot of first serves at this stretch.

Kei is pretty bipolar today...he is all over the place. BP for Milos.

OK. Since I don't like Milos, but like Kei, I am going to watch every alternate shot for the
rest of this match or until I sleep. :lolz:

I am going to tweet to Milos to work in the off season on his FDTL and BDTL shots. This cross court exchanges are too predictable and he usually ends up losing them. He has to mix them up.

Kei returning from a different area code, but worked on that return pass.

There!!!!

I knew it! I turned the TV on, 3x4 Nishikori serving, and the first thing I see is a lousy bh!!!!

Edit: Lots of them. Sorry, Murat, I believe you he is improving, but could not resist.

Kei has 3BPs...one saved.

Kei breaks and will serve for the second set. He has been very inconsistent so far so let's see how it goes.
