Two more sets like that will do very nicely thank you.

^^ GB 6-1.

On serve at 2* - 3 in the second

Had three BPs ( almost SPs ) at 4-4* 40-0 and a chance or two went begging

*4-5

indiana · Tennis legend

Bouncy moves from Krajonovic's backhand down the line being not meant to being "quite spectacular" after a replay.

*5-6

Tiebreak ...

1 set all. Not what the doctor ordered.

indiana · Tennis legend

Very solid tiebreak from the Serbs, won 7-2.

Krajinovic has got much steadier as the match has progressed and Dom has missed a few.

At least held serve from *0-30 at the start of the third set.

6-1 6-7(2) *1-1

I think that we'll win the doubles in the end, but it is a real contest now.

Hold there from 30-40 on the Jamie Murray serve. Am I right in saying that was the 1st BP that they have faced so far today ?

No, there were actually 3 in the first set, but none in the second. And they have only taken 2 out of 10 themselves

Serbs have had 4 BPs in total. 2/10 vs 0/4.

Games 4-3*, nice to get a love hold from Jamie.

spud · Challenger qualifying

Noticeable absence of Andys returns in the Ad court

indiana · Tennis legend

Another 5 BPs, fifth taken on a DF from Zimonjic ( pity-ish for him because he'd produced a couple of really good shots to save the initial BPs ) followed by a love hold from Dom.

6-2 6-7(2) 6-3 up ...

The first half of that third set was a bit of a tough period and the crowd was much more into it. They did well to see through that period before getting on top again.

TMH · Futures qualifying

Perfect start to set 4.

John Lloyd taking about some players like to be talked to by their captain some don't. I take it quite often he judged they didn't in his time then ...
