Is anyone of you watching the match? Yes. He's doing better than Lleyton did against Fed. He had a break point overruled by ther umpire, but he's acquitting himself quite well, considering who he's playing. He doesn't look half as lethargic as yesterday. So far its 3-6 0-1 to Fed. He's just played a shocking service game  |

I'll give you a running commentary if you want  But I dont think it's going to be a long match. Fed 2-0 up now. |

Far better service game as Andy gets his first game of the second set. (At least he wont get bagelled)  |

Rog is really stepping it up now. His forehand is truly awesome, but Andy's still holding his head up and rallying with aplomb....at times.
A few dodgy strokes are creeping in, but he holds his serve for 2-3. (he's still down a break though)

oh, I didn't realise Andy was playing in the Mons challenger! It's reaaly close to my home, so if he does play I might go and see him, even if it is only a challenger! Unfortunately, I dont think he's going to play that. (Or so it was said on Sky Sports). |

This is not as one sided as the score may suggest. Andy's just played an exquisite drop shot!
WOOT. It's 15-40 on Rog's serve.
30-40 now.

The crowd are really behind Andy. He's just played a lovely point. He's a big match player. Once he works on his serve, he'll be phenomenal. But he just has to improve his first serve %. You dont challenge the top players on a second serve. Just served an ace to hold his serve after having a couple of break points against him. |

 Lousy service game from Andy gives Fed a break and coming back to serve for the match. But 7-5 will be very respectable, when you consider the scores in a lot of other Fed finals. |

Fed's won, but highly respectable performance from Andy.
Well done Murray. You are a great prospect.
