2013 US Open QF: Murray v Wawrinka

[August]

Anyone think he can come back to win in 5? I'm not feeling it based on the little bit I watched.

Tented, with Stan's track record on the big stage - if Andy wins this next set, it becomes very possible.

So true. This match could turn out like Melbourne 2013 against Djokovic.

At least Stan didn't melt at the end of the 2nd set.

Stan seems to like playing Andy at the Open...I am not watching it but he is up a break in the third.

:wave :wave Bye Andy.


(he needs to pray Stan chokes big time or this is over)

I hope Stan the Man shows this of level of play in the semifinals against Djokovic.

And I hope it's Youzhny in the SF.

I hope he plays much better. Tbh he's not playing really that special tonight. Murray's just terrible. If Stan wins this he'll need to be playing much better against Novak. I feel sorry for the Murray fans as it's hard to see your player play a match like this. I didn't get to watch Fed's match against Robredo but seems to be a similarly crud performance.

I would say the Federer and Robredo match was worse than this match. Yes, Wawrinka isn't playing special but Wawrinka is hitting winners from both sides. The Federer and Robredo match it was just all ugly from Federer.

What's wrong with Andreas? He doesn't like playing Swiss #1s in slams?

He is dressed like Deutschland team from 80s, they just had black eagle instead of ad1das sign on the shirt.

Yeah, read Fed basically couldn't hit a barn door. Sounds much like the Miami 2011 match against Nadal.

One thing that's clearly evident is the other Swiss fella should clearly take note of this Swiss guy's break point conversion and try and take a leaf out of his book!

Hey Nole, THIS is the way you beat the Scot

If Stan wins this in straights it'll make anyone who backed him some nice $$$

Congratulations to Stan the Man Wawrinka on reaching his first Grand Slam semifinals. He took it to Murray today. Let's hope he brings this high level of play on Saturday so we could have an entertaining match.

Also, we might have a new number one Swiss player in the world!
