"Andy won 6-1 in the third. Hope he plays at RG like he did there, very attacking and making most of the attacking shots. Both players were going for it even though it was an exhibition as they probably wanted match practice on the clay."

"His serving seemed pretty good, better than in the last few matches. He did go off a bit on serve in the second set, but found his rhythm again in the decider.

Baghdatis tried a few wild shots and made quite a few errors, but a lot of that was probably to do with Andy`s aggressive tactics. They looked like they were having fun out there towards the end of the match (although Andy did get down on himself in the second set). "

"Andy did look good out there against Bagdathis, certainly was serving better than he usually has been in his previous matches. But I feel he might of had a little lapse of concentration in the 2nd set. In the 3rd Andy had the measure to win the 3rd and played a near perfect set but some of Bagdathis' errors contributed. Of course as other have said in this thread that was more than likely because of Andy's attacking and aggresive play throughout the match and not just the 3rd set.

Also here's hoping he gets a decent draw tomorrow morning same goes to Tim and Greg aswell. "

I watched a bit of that match on Eurosport, but then my brother put the cricket on (do we have an eye rolling emoticon?)

Also on Saturday Murray played an exhibition set at Benny-Berthet day against Richard Gasquet. Gasquet wn 6-2...I have a friend who watched it, and he said that Murray talked to himself the whole way through lol.
