Oli 5-2 down first set.

paulisi · Tennis legend

Oli broken again and has lost the first set 6-2

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

But he breaks in the first game of the second - Oli 1*-0

paulisi · Tennis legend

That was a very long, yet productive game. Won on 4th break point?

Stircrazy · Tennis legend

Oli now *3-0 in the second.

Not sure but ti certainly worked !

Held serve to love and then broke again ! Oli 3*-0

paulisi · Tennis legend

Oli got to 4-0, but has been broken now 4-2

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Novak gets back one of the breaks - 2-4*

(NB True, that Oli is 6th seed and Novak unseeded, but given that this week Oli is WR 505 and Novak WR 516 - it's practically the same . . .)

Big hold from Oli for 5-3

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Oli serves for the set, saves 3 BP but can't save the 4th.

5-5

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Oli saves at least 5 MPs (!!!) and into a TB.

Is this going to be another infamous 'never in any doubt' Oli match ???

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Poor Dennis Novak, maybe not unsurprisingly, having had 5 MPs in front of his home crowd and somehow losing all of them, then goes on to lose the TB 7-2 (including a DF from Oli)

So, Mr Golding, time to step up to the plate . . .

Wow. Having checked the Italy score I then look at Austria and find Oli MP down in the 2nd.

Since I logged on however, he has turned things around completely, with a massive hold and a dominant tie break win.

Into the decider.

Oli broken in the opening game.
