Definitely more like it:  *3-1 in the second.  Let's hope he doesn't now run out of steam... pray.gif

5-4* - Come on, Andy break him now please, my blood pressure is rising. . . I'm not sure I could cope with a third set.

Good lad - he did what I told him biggrin 6-1 6-4 - faltered a bit in the middle of the second set, but pulled it through.

What a relief! w00t.gif  Finally getting his first win of the year under his belt must give his confidence a bit of a boost - one assumes...  He faces the 16th seed, Gilles Simon, in the third round.

Much better, hopefully he can continue to improve match by match. Should relish Simon matchup.

Well a win's a win and Andy's not had one of them for a while.  And at least I presume he managed to get off Court Central at Monte Carlo without being booed and whistled which hapened after his thrashing by Kohlschreiber last year.

Think the match with Simon will tell us much more.  Simon has followed up a  6 - 3   6 - 2  win against Belluccis with a  6 - 3   6 - 4  win over Montanes

 

L16 :  (3/WC) Andy Murray WR 4  vs  (16) Giles Simon (FRA) WR 24 

 

( I hope noone noticed that I wrote Simon's ranking wrong at first     wink  )

Second up in the afternoon session on the Court central again tomorrow.  I agree with you, Indy, that the match will be a better measure of how things stand than today's. pray.gif
