So much better in the second set. Funny how things go better when Andy is actually willing to hit the ball.

Thankfully he abandoned the forehand slice in that set.

Andy took the third set 6-1 for a two sets to one lead. Listening to the 5Live commentary - sounds like Berdych dropped his level somewhat but is now picking up again in the fourth set.

Currently 1-0* to Andy in the fourth, few deuces/break points in Berdy's first service game.

RCD · Intermediate Club Player

Which he takes for a *2-0 lead in Set 4

RJA · Hall of fame

Match really should be over. Murray should have broke again for *4-0 but didn't and now we are back on serve and Berdych looks interested again.

Julia Carrot · All-time great

Tie break. Please ! i really do not want this to go five.

Thank goodness for that. I can feel my blood pressure dropping as I type !!

4th set was horrendous to watch but I suppose Andy deserves some credit for getting his level high enough to stay competitive once Berdych had awoken from his lengthy sleep. So many chances to get the double break in the 4th but kept fighting in the tiebreak to get through. I didn't enjoy that match at all.

RJA · Hall of fame

Thank God for that.

Bob in Spain · Tennis legend

I thought for so long that the wind was going to be the deciding factor, but in the end, it came down to bottle on the big points.

Oh Lord I've been doing a 'family evening' and sneaking out for furtive updates. I couldn't have sustained five sets.

Get In !!
