Just woke up dreaming Andy had lost first set 6-1 so very relieved when I got myself up and running. Good match so far?
Good from Andy's point of view! first six games went to serve pretty quickly. Then Andy stepped up a gear/Tomic got a bit tighter on a service game.
Second set Andy playing at a good level.
Basically Andy has served very well, has been aware of the danger and not given Tomic the oxygen of hope.
Now finish it off.
Focus. Safe hold. C'mon Andy!

Brilliant and as it should have been against the 19 year old. He's not ready to take on the likes of Andy quite yet!

Brilliant Andy :cheer: He's such a clever player in how quickly he can work out his opponent. Also a comment about how refreshing it is to have two players who waste no time between points. It makes it much more enjoyable.

For our health however, maybe Andy could play Doha next year. ;)

Anyone heard even approximately what time the final will be?not before 2 pm so 4 ish i think

pabbers
07-01-2012, 06:56
Wonder if the final will be in the afternoon or evening. Too sleepy to even work out which would be best for us. On the other hand think I'm too wide awake to go back to bed. *Sigh* the things I do for Andy!

I think the biggest compliment you can give Tomic is that Andy did not allow his concentration to slip for a moment. Any hint of a Murraycoaster and it could have been very different.

Pleased I woke up in time to see the end of the match and very pleased my dream not a reality!

What I saw looked good so looking forward to final against Dolly - but I bet that will be in the middle of the night so may have yo give that one a miss

Well done Andy - so glad to see him playing well. He seemed to be flexing his wrist a lot - really hope it's not a problem.

Post match interview..

-Figured out Tomic early and took some time to adjust
-Feels like he is playing well and is confident going into the final
-His physio is arriving next week & meeting him in Melbourne for the AO.

Short and sharp interview and not a whole lot was said.

Great win though. Tomic has real potential for the top and I reckon a dangerous player on his day. Well in Andy. Clinical and concise. Just how I like it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brilliant. Great play by Andy and a joy to watch. The first time I have seen him this year (paid my fiver to bet365) and thought he looked in good shape and really focused. Geat to see Lendl in his box (couldn't miss him in that white T shirt) looking positive and appreciative, too. My imagination or were there not too many glances to the box in this game - Andy concentrating on the task in hand? I hope Andy deals with Dolly in the same way.

Thanks to all you troopers commenting throughout - much more than I can manage.

How come I had to pay £10 then????? :grrr: My credit's obviously not as good as yours :lol:

Great match. A masterclass by Andy. I feel he is looking more relaxed, he can leave a lot to Ivan who will talk to him after the match and plot the next one. Andy did say the Ivan had given him instructions via the phone and that he would try to carry them out, this was before he Ivan had travelled to Aussie land. Now that he is there by his side he can relax and get on with his tennis.

You and me both ! By the time I got my eyes open and the computer running it was all over. But a nice result to wake up to and some precious sleep before the final and the AO. Well done Andy - If I'm going to miss out on watching its worth it to know you won :cheer:

That was so annoying! Am hoping he's become a bit more consistent :p Fingers crossed for that not happening! At least if it does, it isn't at the AO!

You can tell this is from Australia - there are a lot of Tomic's winners in this.

I've not managed to find a video of the whole match yet.

The last time Andy played him Andy said it messed up his game so much that it was still messed up at the start of the next match. So playing him in a final is probably not a bad thing. Simon would have been great as I always think it is the best "live practice" Andy gets .

http://www.youtube.com/brisbanetennis#p/u/3/FUIhkPNnxyY is Tomic's presser and interesting to see how he views Andy and his take on the game, especially the expressions on his face when he is describing the difficulties Andy poses to his opponent.
