40-15, Andy's turn to go for too much on the cross court fh.
40-30, Andy nets a fh. ahhhh!
game. super point. had wawrinka running back and forth at the baseline and then came into the net for the volley winner.

2-0

Wawrinka serving at 46 64 02

0-15, wawrinka opens up too much on the cross court backhand and it goes long again.
2nd serve, an ace down the T isn't.
15-15, poor disguise on the dropshot from Andy and wawrinka gest to it for the volley winner into the corner.
15-30, yet another shot goes long from wawrinka.
15-40, and again fh into the corner (or not) in that one.
30-40, well he didn't miss that one. a lovely bh dtl followed up with a volley smash winner thing.
deuce, wawrinka races into the net and Andy's lob isn't good enough, and is predictable so wawrinka gets the volley winner to draw back level.
2nd serve, ad Andy. DF
2nd sere, deuce2 some great shots from both players there, wawrinka hit after a dozen shots that would've been winners against nearly everyone else. finally got the angle on the fh cross court though.
ad wawrinka, Andy looks very tired in that point and he sticks his racket out half heartedl y as the winner goes behind him.
deuce3 volley winer from Andy
ad Andy, cross court fh from Andy which Wawrinka sends into the net.
2nd serve, deuce 4 volley goes long from Andy and he walks back to the baseline with his eyes shut, you can almost see him holding the temper in check.
2nd serve, ad wawrinka, the return goes long.
2nd serve, game. return goes long again.

Andy serving at 64 46 32

15-0, return goes long
30-0, Andy rushes the net and hits a great volley, Wawrinka ends the point in the net.
30-15, a couple of lovely shots in the rally but Wawrinka's cross court winner is too good, a fact he acknowledges with a 'yep' to his opponent.
2nd serve, 30-30, Andy nets. neither player looks particularly comfortable in himself out there.
40-30, return goes long again.
game. great fh volley from Andy. Have I mentioned yet today how much Andy's net game has improved in the break?

42

Wawrinka serving at 46 64 24

0-15, bh dtl winner from Andy! yay. he got away with another poorly disguised dropshot there. both players beginning to look pretty darn tired out there,
0-30, fh cross court winner that time, into the same corner. beautiful and rewards himself with a fist pump :)
0-40, another great, huge cross court fh from ANdy and wawrinka can't get it back into court.
game. fh dtl winner. huge again.

where did that game come from? Andy suddenly went up about 10 gears!
