Nobody else following the tennis then? Thrilling stuff this morning - has dragged me away from TMS (following on cricinfo instead).

Surprised with the strength he's shown in fighting back, a really mature performance. Lendl's influence, perhaps?

game of two halves so far switched sound off squeaky shoes more annoying than grunting women tennisists.

Two tired clichés rolled out already.

Set apiece. Game on. Nice one Andy.

Djokovic suffering somewhat though. May well retire at this rate.

Well done Murray - evens it up!!

The Scot will become a Brit at this rate!!

Great hold to take the set from 15:40. Djok looks surprisingly tired - lets hope so!

aracer, listening on radio. Sounds like Djokovic has big support there? Big Serb population in Oz I'm guessing.

Yes, also a big Croat and Greek one too, with some [url= http://www.smh.com.au/news/tennis/serbs-croats-clash-at-open/2007/01/15/1168709659893.html ]combustable results.[/url]

Ooooh, sounding shaky for Djokovic? Is he in a lot of trouble?

Are we only having this thread for the Grand Slam tournaments? I suspect it'll get a bit samey otherwise....

Murray 2-1 up in the 3rd set. Looking like he's on top, but its very close. Crowd seems pretty equal on both sides. Getting right in to it.

he looks tired DD but tbh I know nothing about tennis and the commentators say he always looks tired.

Certainly more huffing and puffing from him between points than from Murray what this means I dont know

Nah, because it really looks like Murray could win this. Its his best surface of the 4 possibly (with US).

Suddenly looking very good for Murray.

What do you mean, druidh? I only started this thread because I couldn't find anything recent mentioning tennis or Murray, and reckoned I couldn't be the only one watching it who'd like to chat a bit. It's specific to this match (though feel free to re-use it on Sunday if he wins).

Oh and to dd - Murray has been getting a lot of support too (if anything I'd have said more than Djoko).

Mind you, whoever does win this is going to be shattered when they step up against Nadal, this is brutal stuff.

Now not looking quite so good for Murray 🙁

And he's just dropped the game he'd won. Murray seems to be making more unforced errors?

Will Murray ever be given decent looking kit?

And Djok looks like he is going to a Stefan Edberg look-a-like party in his - bit 1980s?

Fair enough if the 5th set doesnt have a tie break. It still has going to the death written all over it. (in before you say that it doesnt.)

murray could have done without that tie break, not just cos he'd have taken the set.

An hour and a half for the set. Crazy stuff out there - Djoko is playing like a number 1, which shows just how well Murray is playing.

Druidh - you will have to put up with more Brit ribbing now.

C'mon Andy! Those three saved set points almost made him English. What cocones with the drop shot. 😉

He seems to have decided that he's Scottish after all now. Has he forgotten he needs to win three sets?

Bloody Henman impersonator....

He'll never be promoted at this rate. Sometimes I think he [i]wants[/i] to be a scotch.
