And he does!!


A couple of great points from Murray. A lovely lob on the line followed by a back-hand down the line to finish that point. Then a rally where Murray should have lost the point loads of times but eventually draws the error from Tipsarevic trying too much on an easy smash.

Deuce on Andy's serve. Andy is asking for trouble at the moment - he's not playing well.

As I write, Andy's now Ad up on serve.

Finally Murray gives a 'Come on' as he saves the second set point with an ace. (twice)


He's looked a little more alive this game, particularly when set point down a couple of drop shots, making Tipsarevic change direction. Also yelled at himself a couple of times, good sign!


A lovely rally wins Murray the game when he sends a volley back that Tipsarevic didn't expect him to reach.


An important game for Murray I think and hopefully he can break here and win the set.

That was an ugly game - nice point to win it, although Tipsarevic should have really won it. He could hardly buy a first serve but he had some big aces to get himself out of trouble. He also made some daft errors as well but I think the problem is that he's under so much pressure on his serve that he's pushing too hard with the other side of his game.

a love service game from Murray sends them into a tiebreak. That was much better, whilst he didn't get loads of first serves in his groundstrokes were more commanding (and accurate).


Tipsarevic to start, 1-0. 2-0. 2-1 (beautiful use of the drop shot). 3-1 (Murray annoyed at himself, code violation). 4-1. 5-1(drop shot hits the net). 5-2. 6-2(racket gets bounced in frustration). 6-3. 7-3 first set to Tipsarevic.

A horrible tie-break gives Tipseravic the first set. :(

If Andy can be a little more consistant (and serve above 51%) then he should win this, but he's making too many mistakes at the moment.

The commentators are ripping Murray apart. some of what they're saying is fair enough but they're also talking about how Tipsarevic is really uncomfortable on the grass whereas it's Murray's home surface (wrong.) and his best surface (even wronger).


Oh well. 15-30 Murray serving second set.

Andy breaks back to tie it at 1-1. If he can just hold it together for a few games, I think he will play himself into good shape but he's looking a wee bit brain-frazzled at the moment.

Murray breaks back with a much better game, looking more like the Murray we know and love.


He now needs to hold.

15-40 - Tipsarevic likes a wee moan, doesn't he?

And Andy breaks to 15. Moan about that Tipsy.
