Federer serving at 76 01

15-0, volley winner on the serve volley
2nd serve: 15-15 DF
30-15, Fed gets the passing winner and sends a cross court winner of his own
40-15, overrule from the umpire calls Andy's groundstroke long (correctly)
game. smash winner from Fed.

1-1

Fed is looking imperial at the moment, and Andy has dropped a minute amount. He needs to pick it up again.


By the way, anyone know the name of the umpire? He seems to have umpired most of the matches I watch!

Fed serving at 76 12

15-0, crowd got a bit of a 'mur-ray' chant going on on. but Fed aces
30-0, Andy nets return, and yells at himself
4-0, serve volley works for Fed who takes Andy out wide with the first volley and then puts away the winner
game. not sure what happened there, just know Andy pulled a face at himself.

22

I think choking is a bit harsh Andymonium, I wouldn't go that far. there was maybe one point where the fault was all him, the rest of the time Fed was simply asking more than Murray could give

Fed serving at 76 23

0-15
2nd serve: 15-15, Andy goes long on a dtl in the rally. A voicing of frustration results
2nd serve: 15-30, gorgeous return from Andy puts Fed on the back foot in the rally and he goes long (I like to think under pressure rather than a ue!)
2nd serve: 30-30, Andy goes wide on the return winner, more muttering at himself after that one, horribly miss.
2nd serve: 30-40, Fed nets, it rises high and Andy races in to catch it, gets there and then Fed goes long. one of them yells, no idea which!
2nd serve: GAME MURRAY!!!!! fast and furious bh cross court passing winner. That was a stunning shot!!!

2-4*
