Acapulco 500

^ I expect Murray to start off slow but eventually win with ease.

Perhaps. I'm just saying that Andujar may be full of confidence…or, he could be tired out. Also, it's hards not clay, and that will be a difference.

 

[TsarMatt]

^ Yeah true, there's no doubt he'll be full of confidence. Let's just hope he can compose himself. Still, Murray best surface is hard, so...

I take your point. Just thinking it went from an easy first round for Andy to a possibly tricky one. The difference that a week makes.

Andy beats Andujar in 3 sets 6-3 1-6 2-6

 

[isabelle]

Andy had some problem with Mr Handsome, hope he can play better and better in Mexic and clinch the title

Pretty darn impressive effort despite losing for Pablo...24 hours of travel with 3 flights...

He was definitely gassed in the third set. It was like a sauna there...they were soaked to the skin by the 3rd game.

Andujar takes two top 5 player to 3 sets within a week, with a match point on the #1 on his best surface. Not bad.

Gonna try and watch last one. Go Ernie!

 

[Front242]

Only match worth watching imo and hopefully a very good one is Gulbis v Dimitrov. Murray v Simon matches are sheer torture and should come with a government health warning.

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

Dolgo just closed out Ivo in the second set TB. If Dolgo does not need a couple of hip surgeries with that serve motion in the future, I don't know who does.

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

David won the first set but he is hurt. I don't know how bad, but he cannot push ...and as I was writing this, he retires. Shame. Anderson goes through.

 

[kskate2]

Just turned it on when David was shaking the umpire's hand. Sad indeed. So Murray/Simon is next followed by Dimi/Ernie. First SF tomorrow is Kevin/Dog.

 

[Moxie]

I was watching, and then turned my attention away and saw Ferrer getting treatment on court. It seems to be groin or otherwise high hamstring, as they took him off-court. He's right to protect the next tournaments. He was set to win that match. Anderson was spraying all over the place. It's a shame. Get well, David.

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

Simon gets the first against Murray 6-1. Murray not looking good.

 

[kskate2]

Muzza was up a break 2-0, but gave it all back. Now he's got to dig out of 0-30. He's really struggling w/ his form right now.

 

[nehmeth]

Gilles will be serving for the match. Unbelievable.

 

[Moxie]

And Murray is pulling it back! So much for those who said it might not be an interesting match.

 

[kskate2]

After Gilles serves for the match a few times, Andy climbs all the way back 5-5

 

[nehmeth]

Murray is having lapses... Simon holds at love. Finishes with a nice forehand winner.
