Marseille - QF: Murray vs Mahut


My nerves are still in shreds after that last encounter!  Andy should have been taking on Juan Carlos Ferrero (5) in the QFs, but he was beaten 7-5 4-6 6-7(1) by Nicolas Mahut yesterday.  In their only previous encounter, in the round of 32 in Indian Wells last year, Andy thrashed him 1 & 3.  Let's hope he's now got the bad match well & truly out of his system & can conjure up a repeat performance on Mahut's home turf tomorrow, at least I assume it will be tomorrow... pray.gif

And let us hope for a later start! As he is playing a Frenchman, that is at least likely!

So prediction for this match....

Andy will get broken once in each set....but break Mahut 4 times at least for a 7-5 6-2 win.

Well Drew, your prediction for the last match got the right result if not quite the detail of it, so I hope that you are right in the final result but that it is less harrowing. laughing.gif

Blimey!  Gilles Simon's just seen off Nojo in three:  2-6 7-6(8) 6-3... jawdrop.gif  That's a big obstacle out of the way! biggrin

Nojo still suffering from putting country before clear personal injury in Davis Cup perhaps?

Will Muzzas decision pay off!?!?!?

Second shock of the day/week:  Gasquet (2) bows out to Soderling 6-4 3-6 2-6, which means that Youzhny (3) & Andy (4) are the highest seeds left in the tournament...! biggrin

Dammit lost to Soderling here last year too!

Andy is 2nd on Centre not before 14.30 CET / 1.30 pm UK after a doubles match that starts at 12.00 CET. They seem to like giving him an early start - he first singles match this time. cry

The rest of the OoP on Centre, is, after Andy:

Ancic v Soderling
Simon v PHM (n/b 19.00 CET = 6 pm UK)
Baggy v Youzhny

They seem to have preferred Baggy v Youzhny as the second evening match  instead of having another French player in the evening session.

Sadly I can't watch the livestreams at work - so I'm relying on the scoreboard.
Does anyone fancy giving a little more insight on how he's playing today, I'd be grateful.

TIA

4-4. Andy is serving well but Mahut's net game is working and he is holding serve.
