Hope not. These slow courts should favour him as long as his first serve percentage is better than yesterdays 49%.

Great serving Muzza. Keep it up.

I suggest watching something like the golf or horse related things just to calm you down a bit

Andy says he will check after the match if it was 25 seconds. I bet he will and all.

how very Rafa-esque.

Just don't let it distract you Andy! We've already had stuff blowing around on court (Fognini) and people in the stands (Johnson)

It's always the same umpires sticking to these stupid time rules. The others just let it pass.


Andy breaks again to serve for the set.
