Both players hold to 15, Greg leads 3-2 second set.

I seem to be writing a monologue here! But I'll keep going for the benefit of anybody who could not follow the match and wants to read it up later.

Andy drops his serve ending with a double fault

, Greg leads 5-3 and will serve for the set.

After a battle, Greg holds and takes the second set 6-3, so here we go for a third set.

It is odd, Andy seemed to be on top most of the time, but still ends up losing the set...
At least he has not served many double faults and I think his first serve % is quite reasonable too.

Andy leads 2-1 with serve.

The SB is truly appalling, it seems to have completely given up on showing the games in this third set.

Now the darn livestream keeps freezing.....Greg holds for 2 games all I think

Andy dug himself into a bit of a hole in that service game; his serve went off in the middle, but he pulled himself together and held to lead 3-2.

Both players hold, score Andy leads 4-3.

LOL, the livestream removed the offending sb and replaced it with a bigger one which covered nearly a quarter of the court so you had to guess what happened there! Now they have got the original one back and it is actually showing the game score for the first time this set

4 all.

Greg was giving Andy the run-around in that game and Andy slipped and fell, but seems ok.

Love service game from Andy, finishing with an ace, 5-4

Madeline · Admin:Moderator + Tennis Legend

After, I think 3 deuces, Andy breaks to take the match 6-4 3-6 6-4.

Now over to our ace reporter, Drew.....

Well that was exhausting to watch...started slowly....but in the end a good hard fought match complete with Gregs smile and Andy's antics thrown in for the crowd.

Will post match reports on all todays main matches later....press conference starting soon.
