No Tsitsipss foot trouble.

Bah, Andy is broken from *40-0 up. That might help heal Tsitsipas's foot. Needed to keep on top of him

0-2*

Bugger! Fourth set down the pan by 3-6. cry

indiana · Tennis legend

Hmm, I see it went *0-5 to 3-5* to 3-6 ( final game won to 30 ). So Andy clearly wasn't letting that set just go away.

How are they both looking? I'm now in for watching the 5th set if it looks a real goer?

The night session was due to start in 5 minutes time.

Bah, Andy broken to 30. 0-1*

Cam has just started also. 1 all opening set

Meantime back on Court 10, with Kiki Mladenovic having lost to Jo's LL replacement, Cam has started. *1-1

... as the man said.

Andy hanging in so well and pressurising the Tsitsipas serve. Dream of a backhand to get back to deuce in the last game but still can't get that break back.

*2-4

Meanwhile Cam in an early battle breakpoint down.

Not that return game from Andy. A weak one to 15 after holding to love. And he's a tad annoyed!

*3-5

L128: (3) Stefanos Tsitsipas (GRE) WR 3 defeated Andy Murray WR 112 by 2-6 7-6(7) 3-6 6-3 6-4 cry

At least Andy kept him going for four hours & 48 minutes.
