Good morning all.
What a shot, Deuce

Disappointing situation for Andy, lets hope he can keep his motivation up in these difficult times. 

 Thanks ATL!

Lets hope he gets past Pouille and it'll be interesting to see how he tackles this match emotionally.
Hope things get easier for him, but I dont fancy his chances against Fed, meeting him rather too soon in the process.

Good luck Andy 

I wonder if he already knew he'd not be able to continue as he sat on the bench and cried inconsolably yesterday, knowing a withdraw was imminent?

How sad to read this, after the elation we felt yesterday.

He more than deserves every point advancement.
Upsetting to see how emotional he was, I know his comeback  means the world to him and  today his heart was on his sleeve. Bless him.

Better 2nd set. He takes it 6-3.

Copil held easily but Andy still a break up, but Copil  is serving and returning pretty well.

Isner vs Rubin match finished, Big John lost.

Still another 2 matches to go before its Andy Time!

Report much appreciated Katie, as I didnt see the match or any live score.

Andy is definately on the way up, but no doubt we'll have to endure some ups and  downs to come along the way to the top, where he is aiming to be asap. I cant be easy.

once he got behind, he manufactured a 'calculated loss' to gather for the 3rd set

Thanks Tonedial, good to getan explanation.
Andy the tactician  at work. That's so smart when your back is against the wall. 

I'm just catching up with the result of match.
What happened to Andy in the 2nd set?

We'd better get into  recovery mode quick before the Kyle match .

Well done. It cant be easy but he rowed the boat to shore. 
 

Oh dear... not so quick to finish this boy off
Is it nerves or rust, or both?
