Sorry, just re-read your quote, you are saying that Mac says the reason is because of the previous match. Well, I honestly don't think Andy will be bothered. He was bumped to Margaret Court Arena last year and it wasn't a problem for him.
yep thats what he said |

Andy holds and Giraldo to serve to stay in the 2nd set. Just looking at seating capacity of the court - 3500 where as Margaret Court is 6000. Look about the same though  |

Giraldo holds and will make Andy come out and serve for the set.  |

Been watching this whilst chatting to my brother, so only had one eye on it.
Is it me, or is Andy playing really aggressive? Maybe it's just the camera angle (I love this angle on Court 1 btw). Seems to be playing really well though.
Missed the first three games because I didn't realise it was on ITV1. <_<
Anyway 15-30 down here, come on Andy..

I think that he could stand a little closer to the baseline at times but what do I know, he's winning doing what he's doing |

What a relief. Andy's serve went missing in that last game of the 2nd set. Also, lately I feel, his drop shots aren't as well timed as they used to be. Anyway, Andy is now 2 sets to love up. Good stuff.

What a relief to see him playing like this! Jim Courier also reckons Andy can win a GS sometime too. Come to think of it he talks a great deal of other common sense too. Nice to hear after all the rubbish on Eurosport by the British commentators.

Giraldo can smack his forehand.
We are still in the opening game of the 3rd set and it's Ad Giraldo. Actually, Giraldo takes it when Andy's shot is just long.
1-0, on serve.
