Andy's drinking some red liquid out of a highland spring water bottle, let me tell you if that's the colour of highland spring water, I ain't buying it!!

15-0, ace. Andy not so sure but tough
15-15, forehand down the line passing winner, that's becoming my favourite shot
15-30, DF
15-40, passing winner. when Mirnyi comes to the net, more often than not (now) Andy takes the point.

A bit of a shaky hold there, but he did hold. I have missed a lot of this match, but Andy does seem to be playing better than at the start; watching that last game however I do not feel terribly confident!
