You're welcome Moxie. I hope it's just Indian Wells he misses. I didn't see his match but I knew it must have been bad for him to retire. Yep, I'm sure he would have preferred the clay.

I'd like to see Andy win the title but he has been abysmal. Not sure how he managed to get past Simon. I'm not even sure he does. Another slow start tonight might be one too many. It could be a straight set loss. Hoping I'm wrong.

Are you going to stay up to watch? I'm curious about the match.

Ferrer apparently has left abductor injury. Whatever that is. And Gulbis implodes a bit to allow Dimitrov to take things to a third set.

Poor Ferrer. He announced on twitter earlier that he's had to pull out of Indian Wells.

Tsonga will get the needed break. He will probably be seeded in top 8 in view of this.
But, will he make use of it?

Andy is not as good as yesteryear, Grigor is hot.
I have to go against the favorite here.

I'm going with the Great Scot. :)

I think Dimi might have a little hangover. He didn't get off court until after 1am

Andy takes the early break 3-1 and Dimi is already out of challenges.

Hello guys! It looks like Murray is starting to get his groove back. If he can beat Dimitrov tonight and win the title, it would definitely give him huge confidence going to Indian Wells and Miami.

Hello Noy. I agree completely. He's already sharper tonight than his other matches this week.

Hey, Rafanoy. And Murray does take the first. This going to be looong. I won't make it, if they go 3.

That was some vintage Murray in the first set. He mixed up his shots and moved around Dimitrov from side to side. Also, you could see that Dimitrov is limping a little bit. He played a tough three setter against Gulbis less than 24 hours ago. Also, it is very humid in Acapulco. It is 12:30 am already but they are sweating so much.

For as late as it is, the stands are full at this hour.

What a point between the two players. Unfortunately for Dimitrov, he has to do that in every point just to win against Murray tonight. Also, after that point, he breathed heavily.

Excellent game and response from Murray.
