Andy involved in the longest set of the US Open 2022 so far against 20 yo world no 203 Emilio Nava. Is this what Andy needs in the blistering New York heat with his hip issues and his cramping issues and at his age? Even if Andy can overturn the deficit you have to wonder about his recovery powers to go any further in this tournament.

 That depends what happens in set 2 and 3. If Andy works out a way I think the sets will be quicker. Nava will find it harder than Andy to keep this level for anymore than 2 or 3 sets I suspect.

Nava's nothing if not tenacious:  he beat John Millman in five sets & three hours & 58 minutes in the first round (7-6(7) 4-6 7-6(4) 1-6 6-1)...

Im aware of that but Andy a lot different player than Millman. We shall see, hopefully Im right here but its the Andy Rollercoaster so anything possible.

Anyway its 5-7 5-3* 15-30

Nava first serve numbers dropping a bit.

Nava is playing way below the level he was at in the first set, he's playing some sloppy points now and Andy is taking full advantage

Murray breaks again for the set in only 42 minutes. Prediction right so far

5-7 3-6 *0-0

 More errors from Nava,  and Andy taking  balls earlier sometimes.

Quick service game to love Nava misfiring. Good game management from Andy here.

Holds to 30, Nava certainly not giving up here. Andy is trying to win this on his opponents errors. Will see if he has to change it up if this fails.

5-7 6-3 2-1*

Magnificent winner for Andy down the line at 30-15 and hes looking strong and more aggressive as well. Hes a master of game management, I think thats what he loves about playing the most, the mental grind. Addictive to play and watch as well.

5-7 6-3 4-1*

Very quick break to love and this set looks home and dry. Sublime drop shot with spin from Murray and an awesome bit of finesse to take the break.

5-7 6-3 *5-1

Meanwhile Berretini takes the 3rd set on a tie break to lead 2-1 against Grenier. Was hoping for a wee upset there to clear the path for Andy.
