Horrible massacre. WTA is infested by a bunch of mentally weak nobodies and that's why SW is winning so many slams. It's painfully obvious. Where is that clown Libera? He is probably jumping up and down inanely now.

Double break point for Andy in the opening game

 

[bksballer89]

There is the break

 

[bksballer89]

This can be a long night.

The opening 2 games took about 15 minutes

 

[bksballer89]

And just like that we are back on serve

 

[Hs0022]

Mauresmo may be doing the trick for Murray. I suspect that Andy will take one set off of Nole. Still that leaves plenty of gas in Djoko tank against Nishi in the SF and whoever he faces in the final. Nole is looking the favorite to me now. Roger may get past Monfils but Berd man will get him and smile his evil grin to be wiped out by Nole in the final.

 

[Hs0022]

Murray is still a shadow of his peak and may never regain that form that saw the run of Wimby and Olympics run.

 

[Hs0022]

This is as boring as it gets. Two baseline hardballers bashing away in a one dimensional manner.

 

[Hs0022]

Terrible drop volley by Murray that sat up like a tent pole.

Tiebreak time.

 

[Hs0022]

Djoko serving first. First point goes to Nole.

 

[Hs0022]

0-1, Murray fault. Double fault.
0-2. Fault. Hits the net
3-0, walkover TB FOR Nole.

 

[Hs0022]

Second serve and Murray dumps return into net.
4-0,

Long rally Nole sends it long

1-4 Murray, sends a cross court bh wide
1-5 Murray. Side change.

Nole is running away with the TB.

Fault by Murray.
Then Dumps the shot in the net.
6-1 with five set points

Takes the first set in convincing fashion. Murray is toast now

 

[bksballer89]

Murray needs to get more first serves in and also he needs to go a little bigger on the 2nd serve

 

[Smart]

Thank god Nole won that set. If this one goes 5, it could get done well after 3 AM. It took 73 minutes for the first set, and that was with a quick tiebreak. And honestly, both of them look subpar. Nole looks tired and Murray looks like he is gonna break down.

 

[bksballer89]

awful

 

[Hs0022]

This Murray? How would it matter if he was on Roger's side of the draw? He would be toast there too. Monfils is actually more dangerous as an opponent.

 

[Hs0022]

So far Nole's side has been tame and this match too is going to be one sided because Murray is simply not the same guy like he was at his peak.

 

[Hs0022]

Murray better pray for rain.

 

[bksballer89]

double break to get back on serve for ANdy

 

[bksballer89]

Getting good
