*4-4 Most worrying this is that Gicquel is by far most likely winner of the tiebreak the way he is serving. Poisitve thing is Jonny can make Gicquel serve to stay in set twice before then. Some real pressure for the Frenchman then. This is where that hold at end of 1st set is an advantage for Marray, causing him to serve first in this set. 




I agree, tiebreaks are a bit of a lottery but on this serving form. Gicquel would be a big favourite. Hopefully Jonny can keep holding and create some opportunities in the next few games.

He's now 40-15 up serving at 4-4

Ad Marray, and he comes through to hold for 6-5

Doesn't look particularly promising for a tiebreak though Jonny must do some damage in this Gicquel service game

Both players have been on fire on serve in this set: Jonny - 65%, Gicquel - 67%.

Jonny has won 77% on 1st serve and 67% on 2nd serve while Gicquel has won 93% on 1st serve and 100% on 2nd serve !!

40-30 First time he's won 2 pts on the Gicquel serve since set 1, can he get it back to deuce ?

6-6

Lots of 1st serves are absolutely essential here for Jonny

Worse possible start to the breaker, Jonny goes an immediate minibreak down

Gicquel leads 1-0

2-0
