Now we need a quick service game from Andy to put the pressure back on Monfils.


And that's what we get.


Now break

Monfils races to a 40-0 lead, Murray claws it back to 40-30 but the game goes to Monfils, 2-2 on serve.

Now lets hope he can hold!


0-15 is NOT the way to start.
0-30 is even worse.
