Memphis 07 SF - Murray v Roddick (again!)

Sheddie · administrator

deuce

Ad Murray

2nd serve....Game

3-6, 1-0

Good hold there, but it's a little too close for comfort at the moment on the Murray serve. Roddick holding easily but Murray just hanging on

Niall · Pro player

1-0

Horrible service game from Andy. He was lucky to save the first bp as Roddick had a chance from a deep position and missed. Then things picked up, Andy hit an ace and a fine cross court fh passing shot.

Apparently he hit a blistering passing shot to take that game

15-0

30-0

Eek ... i thought the scoreboard was looking pretty good, 'til i realised i'd got my Andy's mixed up

Niall · Pro player

Andy hit 2/3 double faults in that game, he could hardly find a first serve but the passing shot was v good

1-1

Comfortable hold for Roddick. No doubt who is serving better.

Jamie needs to get courtside pronto. it seemed to have a galvinising effect on Andy last time he did that... perhaps Craig could have a quick word with him.

Murray serving:

2nd serve....0-15

2nd serve....15-15

2nd serve....30-15 Roddick getting so many looks at the 2nd serve at the moment, only a matter of time before he starts to take it on more, worrying stuff for Murray

40-30

are you watching it andyjmr ?

If so, what's Brad looking like ?

Ace no 7 secures the game and it's 3-6, 2-1

Niall · Pro player

2-1

Bizarre game, at 30-15 Andy had a good rally going and missed the passing shot

Next point, Andy went for a dodgy drop shot, it is a while since I saw one of those (thankfully), Roddick smashed a potential winner but Andy stuck a racket on it and it looped up and onto the opposite sideline.

Final point: ace

No, just watching the scoreboard. i'm assuming Jamie's not in the stands (yet). Either way, Andy really needs to have a good shout at Brad very soon ... after all, Brad has told him it's ok to do it.
