I guess updated for 2012?

Americans are all out.

I don't know if he can pull it off, but it's better to watch than last night's was.

Both of them are serving poorly, but I think a lot of that can be attributed to just how good their return games are. They are clearly the best in the world on return of serve.

This tenth game is awesome. The drop shot was pure genius.

KC_Connection · 01-27-2012, 05:45 AM

Andy Murray showing a lot more fight than usual. I'm surprised. He really believes he can win (and he can).

KC_Connection · 01-27-2012, 05:50 AM

Murray playing unbelievably well to get the break.

Silock · 01-27-2012, 05:50 AM

Holy shit! That was awesome effort.

KC_Connection · 01-27-2012, 05:56 AM

Wasted. To the tiebreak, then. Who's going to play the clutch points better?

Silock · 01-27-2012, 05:58 AM

This is such a fun match to watch.

KC_Connection · 01-27-2012, 06:06 AM

Murray's defense is incredible. Takes the 3rd set with some great shots at the right time. He's certainly never done anything like this in a big GS match before, so let's see how he reacts to having a lead.

Silock · 01-27-2012, 06:06 AM

Djoko is sunk if he can't find some fight.

Silock · 01-27-2012, 06:06 AM

Thing is, Nadal will eat him alive if he wins.

Oh, he's trying pretty hard out there. They both are. Even to come back and create a tiebreak was pretty impressive the way Murray is playing.

If Murray is playing like this, he can beat anyone in the world. But I wouldn't be surprised to see him choke due to it being a final against one of the greatest players of all time.

Djokovic owns Nadal, so he'd probably win if that was the matchup. A long way to go, though, before that happens.

KC_Connection · 01-27-2012, 06:10 AM

What the **** was that, Andy? Just smash that away.

KC_Connection · 01-27-2012, 06:11 AM

Early mental mistakes give Novak a break...but we've seen how much having a break matters in this match. Very little.
