YES - Andy breaks! Now can he serve it out? His service seems more impressive than we are used to.

Keep up the good work, Drew and Imoen - I haven't time to post much as I am trying to fit in chores during the sit-downs, but I am reading what you say.

Oh, and UBF too - I see he has joined in while I was writing

For most of the 1st set, Andy stayed fairly passive, waiting for Ljubicic to make the errors. However, in the last game, he really upped his level, playing more aggressive from the baseline and really going for his shots. Ljubicic looks a little lethargic and was simply outhit which is worrying for him as Andy's also reading his serve like a book at the moment

Yipeee Andy breaks 5-4 serving for the set !

Andy serving:

15-0: Ljubicic mis hits a 2nd serve return

30-0: Ljubicic hits long

40-0: Big serve, Andy gets the short ball and follows into the net, L puts up a lob but it's not deep enough and Andy puts away the smash to get 3 set pts

Go Andy! The perfect time to break (so long as he holds now)!

are you watching UBF?

latest beeb update:

Murray 4-4 Ljubicic
A sweet backhand pass and another down the line brings Murray level. Brad Gilbert watches impassively from the stands. Knowing him, he's been up almost 12 hours already.

Andy has 30-0 on his serve

Sheddie · administrator

40-15: 2nd serve is too short from Andy and L hits a return winner down the line

40-30: Another 2nd serve and it is deeper but L still blasts it down the line and it's smack on the line. Andy challenges but Hawkeye shows it to be in
