Is Murray serving better than yesterday would you say or is Ginepri just not returning very well ?

Is Andy winning his service points through big serves and follow-up groundstrokes winners or is he frustrating Ginepri into errors ?

Great little drop shot wins the first point of the game for Murray, but falls 15-30 behind quickly.  Good play forces an error, 30-30.  Murray loses the next 2 points in a short space of time, wasting a challenge at 30-30.


3-2 Murray.

Thank you Madeline

This match has been fairly normal so far, with serve dominating instead of return. I'm referring to all the breaks yesterday - playing like women did come to mind !!!

BBC:

Murray 3-2 Ginepri
Exquisite hands from Murray, who leaves Ginepri scrambling in vain with a canny little backhand volley. Murray then uses up one of his challenges, but the replay shows Ginepri's ace was good and the American holds serve.

Murray 3-1 Ginepri
Ginepri is struggling with the depth of Murray's ground-strokes and he sends a forehand miles long off the frame. Ginepri is defeated again by another Murray drop-shot and the American plops a forehand tamely into the net to hand Murray the game.

thanks for the commentary all.


It sounds like Andy should be able to win this provided he has enough energy!

A double fault and poor smash into the net from a foot away cause Murray to fall 0-40 behind, then a good return causes Andy to lose his serve to love.


3-3.

BBC:

Murray 3-3 Ginepri
Murray, stretching at the net, sends a forehand volley just wide before smashing a sitter into the net to leave Ginepri with three break points. Ginepri converts the first with precise backhand down the line.

I never feel comfortable when Andy is playing unless he has a double break, he seems to be prone to lapses in concentration on serve

A few too many sloppy shots and Ginepri is 40-15 up, then after a long rally, Ginepri hits a shot into the corner, and Murray tamely puts a tough backhand into the net.


4-3 Ginepri

An UE from Ginepri, the an ace down the centre for 30-0.  Another backhand UE and it's 3 game points.  Murray wins his 2nd serve after another UE and he holds to love.


4-4

Ginepri comes to the net during a longish rally, and pressures Murray into an UE into the net.  A clean winner makes it 30-0.  Ginepri stays 30-0 after a successful challenge, and goes on to hold to love.


5-4 Ginepri.
