RE: Week 41 - ATP Masters 1000 - Shanghai


Missed it all. Ah well, I have done a few chores (like making lunch, putting away all the shopping from last night's late-night expedition to the 24hr Tesco, changing the bedding - all those annoying things that interfere with my enjoymehnt!) so now I can settle down and watch the match with fingernails out of any danger.

I do believe Roger is the first player Andy's got to double figures in ATP victories against, with the top 5 being I think :

1.  Roger Federer  10 - 8

2.  Gilles Simon  9 - 1

3.  Fernando Verdasco  8 - 1

     Andy Roddick          8 - 3

     Stanislas Wawrinka  8 - 4

Novak could join the 8s tomorrow  smile    ( currently  7 - 8 )

About to serve for the first set. Fingers crossed.

Is Steven anywhere about? Roger served 3 double faults in a row a little earlier - surely that has never happened before?

It was only spitting a bit - they are closing the roof, but play  continues.

Roger desperate to stop play at the first spot of rain. Andy playing some excellent stuff.

Short rain break!  Andy spurns several break points in the opening game of the second set & Rog eventually wins it:  *0-1.
