ATP Metz R2 : Murray v Llodra
Permalink  

So Andy faces the Frenchmen for the first time in any type of singles match. 

There are both very similar in build and height but that is where the similarities end. Llodra is 7 years older and a leftie.

Llodra has not had a great year at this level with an 11/15 win lost record. Andy is seeking to improved on his 29/10 record.

Llodra did upset Wawrinka in the first round at SW19 but apart from a recent Challenger Semi he has not had a great run.

Andy should win in 2 very straightforward sets...6-4 6-3 I reckon.

At last Canas wins and fingers are crossed that Andy doesn't
go walkabout in the second set.

He managed to hold his first serve - that's always a plus. 1 all.

Andy serving at 2-1

2nd serve: 0-15 Hmm, so far he's failed to win a point on his second serve. hmm.gif
15-15, on the other hand he's won every point on his first serve.
2nd serve: 30-15
2nd serve: 30-30
2nd serve: 30-40 bp
deuce.
ad Andy
2nd serve: deuce. Looks like his second serve has reverted to it's patheticness of the past. cry.gif
2nd serve: ad Llodra, bp2
2nd serve: deuce (2/9 now won on 2nd serve)
2nd serve: ad Andy (3/10)
game. Finally!
