Andy seems to be dropping his groundstrokes quite short and has hit a few UEs into the net already, but is still carving out a few chances on the Youhzny serve. He looks quite comfortable in the rallies - I've not seen anything from Youhzny that will really hurt him.

Amazing point to break! Great stuff from AM!

Does anyone get sound on the video feed ?


Nope - & the picture quality's so poor the only time it's possible to follow the flight of the ball is on the action replays! cry

The MY contains no problems for Andy. He's picking it well and returning it accurately and deep.

And again as I type, another UE from MY makes it a double break. I should post more!
