Looks like 2-1 to Novak.

Hoping for a five setter now.

Cosimo · 27 Jan 2013 at 11:39

Djokovic set. 6-7 7-6 6-3

Murray rocking now.

Mr Jones · 27 Jan 2013 at 11:39

No no no no nooooo!

Craig1981 · 27 Jan 2013 at 11:39

6 - 3 now. This is getting depressing to watch

Usually starts much sooner but he's still the only player that 'bottles' games when he loses them. Amazingly, his opponents never bottle games when Murray breaks though

Relax, it's a light hearted remark. I don't particularly care that much who wins although I'm not fond of Murray.

Now he's whining at the umpire.

2-1 Djokovic.

Second game in the second set could've decided the match. 0-40 up and Djokovic fought back.

Edit: At least we'll never hear how he 'definitely won't' win a grand slam event ever again

It will just be he won't win another grand slam event now.

Has Murray actually won a rally that latest more than five shots?

Every long rally seems to have gone Novak's way.

He's in real trouble now.

Pigeon_Killer · 27 Jan 2013 at 11:58

That'll be it. Djokovic is playing too good to let this slip.

Andybtsn · 27 Jan 2013 at 11:58

Bah, gutted.

Today is going to be a bad day for me in terms of sporting events.

What? Leeds are going to stuff Spurs.

If only

Pigeon_Killer · 27 Jan 2013 at 12:03

Beginning to look mentally and physically drained. Djokovic is bullying him.

Edit: All over. Lost it when he allowed Djokovic back in to the second set.

Irish_Tom · 27 Jan 2013 at 12:10

Must be all over now.

Azza · 27 Jan 2013 at 12:10

I know Murray has strength and endurance but I'm surprised more players just don't try to physically kill him. Make him chase balls around like a headless chicken he's bound to hurt something after a while.

Djokovic is the only player that can. Murray would do the exact same thing to everyone else bar Nadal maybe.

Seems to be over sadly...

Needs to take one break to put some pressure on but winning two breaks against Novak is just some task to take on.

Novak has played some special tennis at times today!

Andybtsn · 27 Jan 2013 at 12:19

That day extra rest for Novak and the fiver setter for Murray is paying dividends here. Shame

As i noted earlier in the thread...its the only Grand Slam that does this!

I suspect they doubt they'd fill a night semi final of the women's tournament.
