Week 23 - ATP 250 - AEGON Championships, Queen's Club - Round 2: Andy vs Iván Navarro (ESP)


The world N° 4 vs the world N° 108...  They've met only once before, in the first round of the Madrid Masters in 2006, when it was still played on hard courts.  Andy won by 2 & 4.  He's reportedly feeling "bullish" about his chances in Baron's Court & he should win, but...   Third match on the centre court tomorrow, after the conclusion of the Boggo/Dimitrov encounter & Monfils (6) vs Schüttler.  I'll go for an Andy win. wink

Should be a nice opener to the grass court season for Murray against a man who has a bit of pedigree on the surface but is out of form and has no real chance of an upset.

Anything other than a straight sets win for Murray would be a surprise and a bit worrying, although if Navarro serves and volleys well, he could sneak himself towards a tiebreak or keep it down to one break a set.

This is why i would like WC's for Eaton and Inglot on grass. Navarro is serve volleying 100% and hes doing very well against Andy as this is pressure tennis.

Andy *5-5

Set Murray, needed to come up with something brilliant in the tiebreak... and did, especially on set point.

Andy 7-6(8) 0-0*


Very good set from Navarro, Im so annoyed how he's not a brit serve/volleying though.

Murray breaks, but had to hit 3 great returns and Navarro dumps an easy volley

Holds from both players, Ivan still not showing any fear of Murrays returns and keeps coming in and putting the pressure on.

Petchey and Rusedski and i agree to how Navarro is really aggresive with his serve volleying but just cant hit a big shot off the ground

Andy 7-6(8) 4-2*

Such a fun match to watch though. I enjoyed watching Navarro, very exciting to see what he could do.

I think he means Eaton and Inglot shouldn't get WC just because they play a serve volley game
