Robredo serving:

15-0: huge backhand winner dtl from Andy...shot of the match so far

15-15: tries same thing but goes long

30-15: good serve out wide...Robredo dictates with forehands into the corners forcing error

40-30: Andy attacks net behind deep 2 handed bh....good fh volley into corner follwoed by easy smash

deuce: blasts backhand winner down the line...spectacular

Ad M: R nets fh

Game: R attacks net...has fairly easy forehand volley but sends it long... going for too much probably out of respect for the Murray passing shots

4-0

Yipeeee, 5-0!

I always like it when Andy has an insurance break, I never trust him not to drop at least one service in a set.

Come on, Andy, Tommy's hungry for a bagel! biggrin
