Well these 2 have met 17 times so far and it doesn't matter how many times Andy has lost to Rafa, he's always looks forward to playing him.
It's going to be a tough match for Andy to overcome Rafa but he can do it and he just needs to remember that.
I have a 2 hour window to watch this match and I would like it done in that time - are you listening Andy!
Sorry, should have added that this is a 2pm local time start - 6 am UK start, and 6 pm NZ start.
And should you have been walking around with blinkers on these last few days, Andy and his brother Jamie are in the doubles finals after a minimal rest period for our Andy. They play Cermak and Polasek (and no, I have no idea who they are too but apparently they are the 4th seeds at this tournie
)

Rafa looks pretty gutted - to win only 4 points in final set must be pretty hard to take for him.

And that for Andy was the key to winning this match, when he plays with a calm mental attitude, he is able to channel his energy correctly, rather than wasting it or showing his opponent whats going on inside his head. I believe our andy will build on the style and manner in which he took Rafa apart in sets 2 and 3. We will be seeing more of this playbook, There still maybe the odd lapse now and again, but this is the very much improved Andy (mentally) that i believe we will be watching in the months to come - long may it continue. Dare we start to believe he can win three titles in a row?
Dare we believe that he can actually now win a Slam?

I for one would not have predicted that after the first set. I'm looking forward to watching the highlights this evening on Sky sports 3 or Sky sports 3HD.
PT = it was brilliant. I thought it was a lost cause after he lost serve on his first service game but he began to pick up and then to dominate. Nadal's confidence diminished as Andy's grew - definitiely a mental thing from them both as they were both playing brilliant tennis - wouldn't have missed it for the world.

Thanks to all you who were with me on this thread since 6am, and sharing all the nerves, hopes and tears.

So good to start the day on such a positive note! Andy played an amazing match today - so impressed with the way he fought back and then took complete control of the match. Bodes well for the future.
