Andy's best hope at the moment is that Nishikori chokes. He has played some inspired tennis but there have still been patches where he has started to miss regularly. We need one of those now please Mr Nishikori.

Andy at 3-4*

He heard you Bob, lost 5 points in a row from 40-0 to hand the break back. Attaboy Kei

Murray holds at last to get his nose in front 5-4, Kei serving to stay in the match now and suddenly all the pressure is on him.

Including an easy forehand, and an even easier volley.

Great game, break time and we are done? ..?

After missing a very easy volley at 40-30, for some reason Nishikori serve volleyed on break point. Big brain cramp there.

Andy then holds for 5-4*.

Bugger!

QF: (6) Kei Nishikori (JPN) WR 7 defeated (2) Andy Murray WR 2 by 1-6 6-4 4-6 6-1 7-5 cry

scottie1 · Futures level

Andy lost his way in fourth set ranting and chuntering good try in fifth set but it always seemed to be that neishikori had the upper hand he played more evenly than Andy

Bob in Spain · Tennis legend

Well that's that then.

If I was a betting man, I would be putting a fiver on Monfils getting injured and giving Djokovic another W/O.

Come on DelPo. This is your time.

Poor from Andy.

Handled himself really badly, disappointed with his behaviour.

Just seemed flat and without any variety throughout, he just didn't try anything different. Nishikori deserved the win and good luck to him.
