Just remembered Williams has a major attitude problem, deliberately missed the shot last point (it was 40-0 but still).

Dan leads 4-1* hasn't had to do much Williams played a sloppy service game in the 3rd game.

5-2 for Dam, Willians to serve.  Williams smashed his racket in that game, I didn't hear a warning though.  He looks quite poor so far

Dan has a BP but loses the game.  Dan to serve, 5-3.

First set to Dan 6-3

And in all honesty, he didn't have to work too hard for it.

Easy first set for Dan. Given Williams ranking, he is very disappointing with lots of mistakes on the backhand and a passive game.

78% first serves in, only one point lost behind it. Makes for good reading (and watching). Good stuff Dan

Pretty comprehensive first set from Dan, never really under pressure on serve and returning well - we're almost a bit spoilt with Dan at the moment, have to keep enjoying the way he plays against these higher ranked guys but its hard not to take it for granted when Dan looks so fluid around the court.

Dan serves out the set  6-3.  Dan is looking very much in control.  Very, very few errors.  Constructing points nicely, very secure on his own serve.

He didn't have to work too hard for it but nevertheless, he is playing very well, stopping just 3 points in 5 service games!

Looks like Williams has stepped up a level, but Dan still playing well and very comfortable.

Loved the drop shot-lob-drop shot-lob combo by Williams on that one point!

Dan 6-3 *1-2

 Yes, credit where it's due, not to mention the nonchalant way he hit every shot in the rally... a little glimpse of Williams the Don.

Dan misses a few 1st serves in that game, but is very secure.  A nice approach and put away an easy volley.  with serve.
