First set to Ferrer. I sense that he's going to do a Robin Soderling.

Murray breaks immediately in the second. I think we've got a fight on our hands

Greenlizard0 · 28 Jan 2011 at 09:44

And then is broken back. Oh dear.

Ferrer playing very well, but Murray just handing points to him on crucial times, should really be a set up. Getting on his own back to much as well.

It's strange, I rarely see Murray play without being aggressive and dictating the play.

Edit - obvious why, he can't handle Ferrer's forehand.

Murrays one of the most defensive players on the circuit. All he seems to do is wait for mistakes, or sometimes a counter puncher. unfortuanlty Ferrer is like a metronome with no unforced errors.

Setroc · 28 Jan 2011 at 10:40

murray goes 5-0 up in the tie break. It seems that dropshots are not Ferrer's forte

Murray up 2 sets to 1 now after dicking Ferrer in the third.

Greenlizard0 · 28 Jan 2011 at 11:25

Really starting to be aggressive now.

Haiku · 28 Jan 2011 at 11:28

Murray's woken up!

Greenlizard0 · 28 Jan 2011 at 11:31

Yeah think that's it. Ferrer isn't able to respond now this will be over quickly.

Pigeon_Killer · 28 Jan 2011 at 11:39

Breaking News! Ready, Steady, cook has been postponed! Points Of View beware

What the hell is wrong with Murray? He made a right meal of tying up the third set, now he's urinated that break up the wall.

Almost as good as you Pigeon at applying a jinx

crackerman · 28 Jan 2011 at 11:47

Surely he can't mess this up. should have been two breaks up and in the locker room by now.

Pigeon_Killer · 28 Jan 2011 at 11:51

Massive point to hold his serve! :cool:

crackerman · 28 Jan 2011 at 11:53

What the hell was that!

Hopefully Murray can see this out in this set and not take this to a decider

Pigeon_Killer · 28 Jan 2011 at 12:09

Murray's fighting to stay in this set. Feels like Ferrer could break at any time but he hasn't.
