The Tennis Thread

Andy has to get his mind right here, Nishi is playing well but Andy is so much better.

 

Aye mate. Certainly seems like personal emotion plays a bigger part in tennis than it does other sports.

Andy in trouble in the third, the closed roof seems to have helped Nishikori(?).

 

Murray is always at his worst when he's berating himself. Needs to trust his quality and he should be fine.

 

This is gonna be a 5 setter for me Kei has stepped it up here

 

This is a lot harder than it should be, or at least looked like it was going to be.

Good hold from Murray.

 

Ya beauty! Brilliant Andy!

 

Break Murray 4-3 third set.

More to do with Nishikori's mistakes than great play though. Murray needs to give himself a shake.

 

Nishikori has some great ground strokes.

He doesn't hit the ball hard but he puts it in some impossible places.

Good player.

 

Oh *, think you're right Sean. I thought Andy was going to run away with it after that break.

 

Murray struggling here.

 

This could be a feature of the rest of this match, breaking serve.

Serving is probably the worst aspect of both players games.

 

What a crazy set. Big chance for Andy now. Come on!

 

Murray will serve for the set and comfortably win the 4th.

 

Serving for the set.

Come on Andy!

 

Found his serve at the right time.

Mon Andy! 2-1 sets up.

Djokovic must be loving this though.

 

Brilliant game! Hopefully his mind will be right for the 4th now. Come on Andy!

 

Murray is so * deep in the court.

He was taking dimitrovs second serves 3 feet inside the baseline yet he is three feet behind the baseline when serving!?

 

*?

A noise and they have to replay the point?

They are professionals ffs.

 

A * bong and they have to stop lol.

Madness.
