That drop shot at 0-30 was a dire shot, and the wrong one.

Djokovic now scheduled 8.15pm. Doubt they'll play now. Could have put him on Centre Court already but I guess there's no audience in there. If they play tomorrow, the winner won't get the same amount of rest time before the 1/4 final on Wednesday.

It's Muller that keeps getting the matchpoints, so I think he's going to win this.

el_dazza · 10 Jul 2017 at 20:18

He won't. Nadal will pull something out of the bag.

Think that's going to prove controversial, could have had that match started on Centre about an hour or more ago! With the roof would have had no bother getting it finished today.

If Murray or Fed had been waiting in the wings they'd have moved them almost certainly so suspect Novak is going to kick off about this.

Muller is playing some incredible tennis here. As is Nadal! Challenging every shot Muller throws at him. Needs to pull it out though, else I'll be winning 20 quid xD

I'm guessing the Djokovic match will be moved to centre but only after this match has finished so the crowd can move courts.

el_dazza · 10 Jul 2017 at 20:31

It's pretty incredible that in 65 games in this match, Nadal has 0 double faults.

0-30 Muller, chance.

I'm turning OCD watching Nadal

Pigeon_Killer · 10 Jul 2017 at 20:33

****

Played Muller!

el_dazza · 10 Jul 2017 at 20:33

Muller wins 15-13!

marc2003 · 10 Jul 2017 at 20:33

Well deserved.

Of course, Cilic will hump him in the next round.

I wished you were going to be right.

Superb tennis from both. Absolutely stunning performances.

Wizzfizz · 10 Jul 2017 at 20:34

Thought Muller would take it, great match full deserving win

doodah · 10 Jul 2017 at 20:34

What a game! Well done to both players.

el_dazza · 10 Jul 2017 at 20:35

Nadal is such a gentleman.

Pigeon_Killer · 10 Jul 2017 at 20:37

Tennis is going to replace golf for the game of choice for the retired if this keeps up.

Edit: Djokovic has been done over

Cleisthenes · 10 Jul 2017 at 20:39

Superb match!

Surfer · 10 Jul 2017 at 20:46

very good match. Muller got his tactics spot on and some brilliant serving really. He didnt let it become a long rally groundstrokes game. Mostly served and vollied. And Nadal didnt do much wrong at all. Although he played pretty good he wasnt at his imperious best.
