[traveller7]

Welcome and behold the might that is Murray come on andyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

[Helen40]

He needs to sort out his challenges, he's really crap at them.

[Alis]

Andy really doesn't deserve to lose this.

[david1610]

If receive at the start of the set but you break and hold immediately you then have the advantage of serving first after the changeover so can give it everything even if you then do nothing on the opponent's serve. All about holding. But having said that.... GET HIM AGAIN!!!!!!

[Manaus]

30-30, please get it Andy!

[-J-]

Little glimmer
cmonnnnnnn

[DaveArneRiise]
