James now playing, on the livestream, wearing an uncharacteristically subdued plain-ish white outfit.

2-1, on serve

No, don't think so.

He saved 2 BPs at 5-5

James took the set 7-5

Although not spectacular of flamboyant (and although not without its scary moments - the break points), that was about the best set of tennis I've seen James play in the last 6 months or so.

James is serving well. His returns could be better, but Montanes gifted the break - 3 DF's??

Yes, I know. Isn't it wonderful to see a guy play a good set and then suddenly blow up at the end - AND IT'S NOT OUR GUY !!!! smile

Be under no illusions, the standard of the this match is dire.

Look on the bright side, it's nowhere near as awful as last week ....

Just call me a glass-half-full-sort-of person smile

It's a lot better than the last couple of weeks....

James is 4-1 up, but it has been gifted to him.

No, last week was dire. Really dire. This is OK. Not more. But OK.
