    Andy is looking tired, he is not hitting well and waiting for Simon to miss.

    Yeah he's not moving great out there today. Could be another big mistake putting him in the doubles.

    Maybe they should have played Dom and Jamie yesterday instead. Andy looks exhausted.

    Would we have won the double without him though?

    Excuse my ignorance but is this best of 3 or 5?

    With Dom Inglot I reckon so. It's best of 5.

    Yes - Andy looks out of sorts.

    Any hope for Ward against Tsonga?

    PS why does Murray keep wasting challenges on worthless points?

    Nope. Early days yet. Andy is a fighter so let's see.

    Andy a break down in second set. It's not looking good. It's hard to win when you are relying on one man. Can't see James pulling off a miracle win.

    It must be so frustrating to work with Andy Murray.

    He needs constant reassurance, disengages from his matches so often, is so easily distracted and so extremely talented.

    Frustrating.

    How often has Simon beat Murray in a best of 5? It's not over yet surely?

    He has never beaten Andy in a best of 5 match.

    We should have trusted in Dom. Hindsight is a wonderful thing.
    Come on Andy prove me wrong.

    Good to see Rusty saved the day for the Aussies. The old boy has still got it. :)

    when Andy challenged the call the umpire got a bit confused and said "Mr Great Britain is challenging the call"

    It has a nice ring to it. :D:D
