1-1

Andy must start taking those 15-30 and 30-30 opportunities in this match, he did that so well against Fed, playing his best tennis on those points.

Wow, Beeb have said it's 100 degrees on court, no wonder Andy is looking a little fatigued !

15-15 on the Murray serve

Murray 7-6 (7-3) 2-6 2-1 Ginepri
Murray produces an arrow-like forehand down the line before Ginepri stretches and claws a forehand past Murray. Murray is then outhustled by Ginepri, who reaches a Murray drop-shot and whips a cross-court backhand winner. Murray makes it 40-30 with a well-timed ace but a backhand return from Ginepri makes it deuce. Murray then wins a point he never should have won, scrambling like Andre Agassi in his pomp, before clinching the game with an ace.

Murray 7-6 (7-3) 2-6 1-1 Ginepri
Murray is carrying a bit more fizz on his groundstrokes early in the third set, but Ginepri is still working the court well and holds to level.

Ginepri holds easily for 2-2

Now 3 bps on the Murray serve, I fear this could be curtains

It's looking like Andy has run out of steam.

Not surprising, the amount of tennis he has played recently.

Apparently Andy looks like he has nothing left energy-wise

15-40

But then, a 4th double-fault at the worst possible time gives Ginepri the break

It's going to be really tough now, especially after saying earlier that if it went to a 3rd, I would expect Andy to go out.  If Andy doesn't break right back now, his nerve will really be tested, serving at 2-4 in the 3rd.

Murray 7-6 (7-3) 2-6 2-3 Ginepri
Even the fabled Murray drop-shot isn't working any more, and a long, tired-looking forehand gives Ginepri three break points. Murray saves one, but Ginepri converts the second. It's time for Murray to go to the well - but will there be anything there?

Murray 7-6 (7-3) 2-6 2-2 Ginepri
Grimaces from Murray, plus a few glances to his coach Brad Gilbert in the stands. He looks spent, and Ginepri wins his service game with ease.

Oh dear, after doing so well yesterday.  Still, the fat lady hasn't sung yet.

Ginepri holds for 4-2 with ease with his 8th ace

I'm not sure how much left there is for Andy to give, especially in 102 degree heat
