Julia Carrot · All-time great

I missed some of Andy's match. Can anyone remember when the underarm serve occurred. I'd love to see that on replay !! Thanks

I've found it now, by reading back. Think it was Emsie's post. Thanks.

At 1-1 in the second set. It was at the end of that game.

5 non seeds only left in last 32 - which is pretty wild. No easy path here

Though rather more understandable than at the Slams with the seeds starting in R2 where it is then 32 matches of seeds vs non seeds, albeit the non seeds will have played and won one match beforehand.

I recall the old whole tournament prediction contests when it was often difficult to make much case for a particular non seed to beat a seed. Though inevitably there will always be some who come through. I don't know how it tends to average out at Indian Wells and Miami.

Quite interesting general thoughts on underarm serves and reasons why Andy's was so successful.

Evo struggling with the slow court against Schwartzman, 2-5 first set

stevemcqueen · Futures qualifying

A 6-2 loss of the first set was looking probable at one point. But Dan dug deep, held and has just broken for 4-5.

JonH comes home · Tennis legend

Got it together now though, 5 all.

stevemcqueen · Futures qualifying

A very long and very mixed gane from Diego. Dan breaks and serves for the set.

Doonan · Intermediate Club Player

Never in doubt

That was the mirror of Andy in his opening set last night

Dan takes the set 7-5. Diego was quite poor in the secong half of the set, way too many UEs.

JonH comes home · Tennis legend

Is Schwartzman injured, Dans won 6 straight games now

JonH comes home · Tennis legend

And an early break second set for Dan
