This match is not going to be good for my nerves, Andy keeps looking as though he will break back but doesn't manage.

I see Bammer is getting the hammer from Hingis - a bagel in the first set.

Good to see that Andy's getting fired up, that generally leads to him producing his best tennis.

Deuce 2: That point went by in a flash on the scoreboard, I presume Davydenko hit a winner on shot 2 or 3.

2nd break point for Davydenko

Fist pumping stuff from Andy. Roars from the crowd. Seem to be on his side

I think the sun is a factor just now. Andy lost his serve serving towards it and then Davydenko gave up break points from the same side.

3-1 30-15 Andy hit a clean winner down the line and the linejudge called it out. Andy complains.

30-30 Again it looked like an ace. LJ called it out, Andy reacts badly and double faults.

30-40 Good reaction, ace.

deuce fantastic cross court passing forehand hit on the run.

Then a bunch of ordinary tennis and Andy gives away a second break of serve.

At the moment Andy is far too rattled to be in this game. It doesn't help that Dav is an extremely good player with a bigger game from the back, but Murray can hurt him if he reaches his best form. It's all mental from here on in.

The Americans really seem to have taken to Andy which is great, hopefully the crowd on his side will get him more into this match.

Unfortunately Davydenko has now got a double break
