Anyone watching?

Murray was in fantastic form to knock Federer out yesterday, & is 2 games to 1 having just broken Nadal's serve in the first set.

Great tennis.
 
I want Murray to win, my friend wants Nadal to win, cos she thinks he's fit

so we're at loggerheads for the afternoon
 
Murray's class.

For he & Nadal to be at this peak at this age means we'll have some golden years of tennis rivalry between them. Nadal is the better player now, but barely, & Murray's closing the gap all the time.

Isn't Murray still 4th?

Murray's 4th, but considering he's 21 & Nadal 22 that's the long term rivalry.
 
The crowd need to learn how to fucking behave, they shouted at Murray twice as he first served & put him off that game Nadal broke him. Wouldnt get that at Wimbledon.
 
Rafa's looking much better this second set, bringing the game to Murray a lot more.

Still hasnt quite got his serve, but he's pushing him more.
 
3-2 second set, just broken him again.

He could actually do this. I wouldnt read too much into it if he does though, Nadal starts the year slowly usually, so will definitely improve.
 
Nadcal finds his serve at 5-5, perfect timing.

Wins second set 7-5. Pissed off cos I wanted Murray to win, but made up cos the match is enjoyable & get to see more.
 
What a fucking tennis match.

Rally after rally. Both players chasing every single ball, from the back & side of the court. Every time you think it's beyond them they keep it in play. Just wish the crowd would fucking act like they were watching a tennis match not a footy match.

He speaks very highly of you.
 
Who won? Ive just switched over now and saw some little chinese girl waving a scotland flag. Then it cut to a break.
 
Great win, great match.

Hopefully Murray can push on & get a slam this year. Beating Federer & Nadal in consecutive matches is no easy feat.
 
That game in the third set to at 3-3 is perhaps the highest quality of tennis I have ever seen by both players, in any match.

What a game... what a match... I know it was only an exhibition match, but 2hrs and 45mins of that, try telling those two it didn't mean anything.
 
SO

Top Eight Pts
1 Rafael Nadal 6675
2 Roger Federer 5305
3 Novak Djokovic 5295
4 Andy Murray 3720
5 Nikolay Davydenko 2715
6 Jo-Wilfried Tsonga 2050
7 Gilles Simon 1980
8 Andy Roddick 1970


Djokovic currently holds the aus open and masters cup... it'll be a lot tighter if Novak doesn't retain the aus open in a few weeks time. its worth about 1000 points I think.

edit its worth 1000 to the winner
