RE: Weeks 21-22 - Roland Garros men's main draw (Andy)

TMH · Futures qualifying

Same old story. Murray playing well, getting into the ascendancy. 0-30 up on Djokovic's serve, Djokovic starts wobbling and gesturing to his team that he's feeling dizzy. Murray then loses 12 of the next 13 points and with it, the set. And realistically any chance he had of winning.

I'm not sure what's more irritating - Djokovic's antics or that Murray always seems to get thrown by them.

Sorry but 8 months ago you were sure Murray should start 'thinking about his future' and would never be top-5 again. Think you should be pretty chuffed that he's here competing, against your wildest dreams.

Djokovic is losing this more than Murray winning it strange match so far. Still fancy Novak to win this in 4

Play suspended at 3-3 in the fourth set due to an oncoming storm. Not sure if it's done for tonight.

BeefyDeedz · Pro player

Play is likely done for the day. Wawrinka must be laughing! I thought Nole's play was of a very high quality until the third, when Murray stepped it up and battled through to make a fourth happen. Impressed with Andy's fight.

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Given the fact they nearly decapitated people with flying metal sheets last time the wind really got up, it's no wonder they cleared that stadium at the speed of light.

Andy did well to dig himself out in that third set. But Novak has looked very good..... Tomorrow's another day......

Madeline · Admin:Moderator + Tennis Legend

They both have time to regroup and think about the match. I think Andy is the one who had (narrowly) the momentum at the end, so it might affect him most.

Resumption tomorrow at noon UK time.
