OZ OPEN 2012, R2: Andy 'slips' past 'Vaseline' (Ozzie pronunciation!!!) - 6'1, 6'4, 6'4

[Sallydaisy]

Round 2 - and Andy faces Frenchman Edouard Roger-Vasselin, WR101

They've not played each other before so the H2H (http://www.atpworldtour.com/Players/Head-To-Head.aspx?pId=MC10&oId=R613) is 0-0 and Andy will once again need to suss out an opponent on the hoof on Thursday when they meet.

The 28yr old Frenchman had a career high ranking of 82 back in 2007 but hasn't really given any of the top players much trouble. He's no ATP main tour titles and almost certainly comes into this match as the underdog.

We know the match will be played on Thursday but won't know the time untll the OOP is released in the early hours of Wednesday.

[david1610]

Andy's next opponent had just seven wins against top 100 players last year - highest ranked 48 - and was mainly a Challengers Player. Currently ranked 101.
Hopefully Andy will not make a murraycoaster of it and get back his energy!

[DaveArneRiise]

Dare I say it........... straightforward :eek:

[Jan]

Dare I say it........... straightforward :eek:

Would be lovely to think so! But just think how dull our lives would become if all Andy's matches were straightforward! ;)

[Alis]

I'll happily take 'dull' once in a while!

[Madeline]

Me too!

[lynne]

The Very Best of Luck Andy!!!:thumbup:

[traveller7]

Please be a little earlier in the morning/night!

[Hawkeye]

As stated elsewhere by Linda, Andy is 4th up on Hisense tonight.

[Caro]

So probably about 5.30 then? Glad I have taken the day off then because I would have missed it otherwise as I leave for for work at 7.

[Sallydaisy]

So probably about 5.30 then? Glad I have taken the day off then because I would have missed it otherwise as I leave for for work at 7.

Play starts 11am.
Ladies singles x 2 = allow 3.5hrs
Mens singles x 1 = allow 2.5 hrs for 3 sets + 45mins per extra set?
I make that Andy would start 5pm and 6.30pm in Oz which is 4-5am in the UK!!!

[JAMES4578]

I'm thinking it could be about 5 though of course you can't be sure, I'll be up then anyway just in case!

[patmoren]

Reckon it will be closer to 6 depends on how much of a battle Jo Wilfred has, going by todays matches could be longer than 2.5hrs

[Linda]

I'll set my alarm for 5am then - at least that's a lot better than 3am!

[Hawkeye]

Think I'll go for 5am as well.

[LC the fan]

Andy didn't start his match until well after 3, so I'm banking on it being 5.30ish before they get going - much more sociable! And with a bit of luck it could be over quickly ???? Dare we hope ????

[xenon21]

Will set my alarm for 5

[pabbers]

Play starts 11am.
Ladies singles x 2 = allow 3.5hrs
Mens singles x 1 = allow 2.5 hrs for 3 sets + 45mins per extra set?
I make that Andy would start 5pm and 6.30pm in Oz which is 4-5am in the UK!!!

Well they start at midnight UK time, so by your calcs I make that 5-6am here???
Yes - just realised - they're 11 hours ahead, so 5pm there is 6am here........no?

[Maza1987]

Horrible timing.
Will have to wake up to good news.

[Linda]

I think that if it starts at 5am that's the perfect time for us. Not ridiculously early to get up, and hopefully finished before going to work. Any earlier is getting up in the middle of the night and any later clashes with work.

[supergran]

Another night on sofa then. Husband says he doesn't mind if I'm in bed but alarm would wake him which isn't nice at that time. So I will snuggle down in here. At least I'm handy for kitchen for coffee and toast!

[Jan]

Hmm I might try and get up for some of this - but not for the start!

[lynne]

5am alarm it is then!!:wave:

[pabbers]

I think that if it starts at 5am that's the perfect time for us. Not ridiculously early to get up, and hopefully finished before going to work. Any earlier is getting up in the middle of the night and any later clashes with work.

Yes so knowing my luck he'll start at 6am!

[Caro]

It's really wierd but I actually don't seem to need the alarm! I just wake up at the right time .... famous last words! I think I'm going for 5.30 and I can then set the alarm then. My normal alarm goes off at 6 anyway so only half an hour earlier for long suffering husband!!

[banskogirl]

Hi all :wave: looking forward to this! although not the early start. Having said that it's much better than it being on during work time.

[LC the fan]

We're all talking about getting up early but will we have to locate a live stream or will it be onEurosport ?

[Caro]

We're all talking about getting up early but will we have to locate a live stream or will it be onEurosport ?

It will be on eurosport. they guarantee to show all Andy matches live

[Sallydaisy]

Play starts 11am.

Yes - just realised - they're 11 hours ahead, so 5pm there is 6am here........no?

Yes, my error.
:shamed:

Play starts 11am OZ. Allow 6rs for the first 3 matches takes it to 5pm for Andy to start (17.00) - 11hrs.
So, 6am UK time approx.

[Jan]

oh that's definitely more civilised!

[Sallydaisy]

oh that's definitely more civilised!
Bear in mind we can only do guessitamates and can't second guess if someone is injured (so ending a match earlier) or that all the first 3 matches could go the distance and take 8+ hours!!!
;)

[RoastLamb]

Middle of the night for me. Will just have to tape tv and hope they show some of it. :sad:

[karanga]

Good that's a reasonable time. Alarm will be set. :swingin:

[patmoren]

We need to #murray on twitter or face book or Aus open site he has dropped below Tomic again to 5th, we have got up just over 100 more this afternoon but need at least another 200

[VamosVixs]

Horrible time for me, will probably miss the end of the match as I leave for work at 7.50am if Andy is not on until after 6am.

[Golden Lady]

Not a great time for me either, I get up at 6 & then spend the next 90 mins getting everyone else up & ready!

[Jan]

Bear in mind we can only do guessitamates and can't second guess if someone is injured (so ending a match earlier) or that all the first 3 matches could go the distance and take 8+ hours!!!
;)
Yes - thanks Sally - I definitely won't hold anyone here responsible if it's way out!

[Jane]

Best of luck, Andy:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:: )

[pabbers]

Yes always difficult to predict. I'm going to take my chances with 5.30am. If it starts much later I'll deffo miss some through that 4 letter word.......work :grrr:

[VamosVixs]

How dare work get in the way!!! :grrr:

[Linda]

Yes, work getting in the way of my AO viewing at least reminded me to buy a lottery ticket today! (I hardly ever do as I always forget.)

[pabbers]

Yes, work getting in the way of my AO viewing at least reminded me to buy a lottery ticket today! (I hardly ever do as I always forget.)

Erm......don't get the connection.........

[-J-]

Erm......don't get the connection.........lots of money= no need to work = time to watch tennis or better still go to tennis

[pabbers]

lots of money= no need to work = time to watch tennis or better still go to tennis
Aha - you and Linda are clearly on the same wave length! I'm too much of a pessimist to have worked that one out! :lol:

[-J-]

Aha - you and Linda are clearly on the same wave length! I'm too much of a pessimist to have worked that one out! :lol:or you have to much money and work for the fun of it :pirate:

[pabbers]

or you have to much money and work for the fun of it :pirate:
Wash your mouth out.....work........fun.........:hmm:

[pippadaisy]

Good luck Andy :cheer:
And good luck all you guys watching through the night
Hope I get up to good news tomorrow :wave:

[ljs]

1am for me , gonna stay up and watch , so glad i took an early retirement !!!

I will cheer loud for all of you who will be at work :jitterbug: :jitterbug:

[Jan]

Come on Andy!:cheer:

[40-15]

good luck Andy!!

5.30am ish - only an hour earlier than when i usually get up!! - alarm set!!

go Andy!! :wave:

[KnightOwl]

Ok, 05:30 seems a reasonable compromise - not too much before Dave's alarm goes off for work anyway, so I don't have to decamp to the spare room :)

[xenon21]

I think I will set my alarm for 5:30
I have come down with a rotten cold! Awful timing! Will need a bit of luck and willpower to get up but hopefully will be ok. Come on Andy!

Night night everyone

[KnightOwl]

Better go to bed soon, if I'm going to get up for the match - this feels really alien - it's not even midnight!!

Edit: aww Xe - feel better :hug:

[traveller7]

Think I will go with 5.30am alarm cos then if its 6am not too much hanging about. 'Speak' later one and all!

[Aya]

Good luck Andy!

[david1610]

Well Andy could just about have been on by now but "Quit - over" is not living up to her name at the moment.

[ljs]

ugg another set of this , 1/2 hr maybe

[Sallydaisy]

Well Andy could just about have been on by now but "Quit - over" is not living up to her name at the moment.
I think it's called Murray's Law!!!
;)

The ladies have taken 33mins per set so the estimated 5.30/6.00 start for Andy looks to be about right.

I've been asleep since 7.30pm last night and just woke up w/o the alarm.
Time for a pot of tea whilst the ladies sort themselves out on Hisense.

'morning all.
:)

[Linda]

Morning all. This would have been the right time if the women's match had been two sets, then.

[lynne]

Morning people, half hour you say ljs well off to make coffee etc! see you all soon!:wave:

[hfwardhouse]

Sigh .... isn't it typical that I get up and I'm too early .... now, do I go back to bed or do I just stay up .... :rolleyes:

[ljs]

hope I can stay awake :sleepy:
Petra could have at least toed the line and won this in 2 :grrr:

[patmoren]

Up and raing to go, if only my body had waited for the alarm to go off!

[hfwardhouse]

Indeed Pat .... I could've waited till my alarm goes off at 6.30 and still not missed much of the match :rolling: .... ah well ... I'm up now ....

[-J-]

this takes much longer, we are in danger of hitting day walker territory

[JAMES4578]

Well Tsonga did get through in straights but somewhat surprised Kvitova did not do the same. Having been in real trouble Petra now up 3-2 in the 3rd.

[supergran]

I woke up before alarm also, though it was set for 5. Had coffee and just hoping this match will finish soon.

[supergran]

Ok, 05:30 seems a reasonable compromise - not too much before Dave's alarm goes off for work anyway, so I don't have to decamp to the spare room :) I never sleep in guest room as it would mean that I'd have to change bedding for visitors!!:) And there is no tv in that room so for Andy's early matches sleep downstairs and then go back to bed with tennis on in bedroom.:)

[RFS]

Ah well - got to get up in a minute/leaving at 6:20 so might catch the start

[hfwardhouse]

At least I've had my shower now but it's that day of the week where I debate whether or not I should have breakfast :rolling: ..... but I think I will - it'll kill some time before the match starts!!!

Apologies for my earlier grumpiness - I'm awake properly now so Good Morning to you all :)

[ljs]

you call that grumpy ?? :rolling:

you should be at my house in the morning :shamed:

[supergran]

Didn't think you were grumpy....you just seemed your usual self to me.:lol:

[ljs]

Finally :cheer:

[patmoren]

Not long now, Kvitova finally finished it off.

[ljs]

did he tell her she played a terriffic game ??

[patmoren]

At least I've had my shower now but it's that day of the week where I debate whether or not I should have breakfast :rolling: ..... but I think I will - it'll kill some time before the match starts!!!

Apologies for my earlier grumpiness - I'm awake properly now so Good Morning to you all :)
I have to watch it in bed, once I am up the dog expects to go for a walk. Not ready for that yet!!

[supergran]

Strange... saw that woman in red waiting for her friend in blue again. We're not stupid EuroSport..that was not a live pic!!

[patmoren]

I'm watching on bet365 we have the court with the shadow creeping across!

[Linda]

My stream seems to be showing Cibulkova v Arn at the moment :confused:

[Sallydaisy]

My stream seems to be showing Cibulkova v Arn at the moment :confused:

They'll probably switch when Andy's on court.

[xenon21]

Morning everyone. Could have done with loads more sleep as didn't manage to sleep till 2ish. Hope this is a quick one. Come on Andy!

[-J-]

andy on court :boogie:

[Caro]

Morning all! wondered what on earth was happening when Kvitova finished and they announced more women! I guess it's just the turn around time to get Andy on .... I hope

[supergran]

Probably won't post much during match so enjoy it everyone. Let's go Andy, let's go!

[Caro]

Andy on court?! Come on eurosport, switch over! NOW!!!

[ljs]

[hfwardhouse]

Didn't think you were grumpy....you just seemed your usual self to me.:lol:

Gee thanks ;) :p


I have to watch it in bed, once I am up the dog expects to go for a walk. Not ready for that yet!!

Oh no ..... I have a rabbit hutch to clean out this morning but think the sleeping ones would object strongly if I did it just now :rolling:

[-J-]

roll up roll up for the great andy murray body language sweep, how long before the commies prattle on about andys body languege/ on court demeanor

[supergran]

It's on..there are two channels - 1 and 2

[KnightOwl]

Mornin' all! Just working my way through an enormous cup of coffee, then hopefully I'll be awake enough to watch the match :big grin:

[Linda]

Looks like they're sticking with this till the end of the set :rolleyes:

[JAMES4578]

Let's go Andy, would be ideal if he could win this in around 2 hours or so, come on!

[-J-]

2 hours would be nice james

[traveller7]

Morning all didnt get to sleep til 3ish but am awake and will try and stay awake now. Lets go Andy!

[40-15]

I'm trying to warm up as well!!

[Caro]

Probably won't post much during match so enjoy it everyone. Let's go Andy, let's go!

[hfwardhouse]

Are you watching online rather than on tv Linda and Fiona? Cos I'm on telly and it's on Eurosport 1.

[Jane]

Yes, but Eurosport have managed to miss the first game - careless, in my view - but I was on the HD channel which is sometimes a bit different

[Speedy Hawk]

What!?! Rotten Eurosport haven't switched over yet - match already started, and they're going to a break first :grrr:

I am watching British Eurosport, they had Andy warming up and now playing. Strange your Eurosport show different.

[KnightOwl]

[40-15]

Nice and easy start for Andy! Much better than last match.

[SamP]

This guy looks very average, this will be a real test of Murray's focus.

[hfwardhouse]

Looking good so far - positive & business-like - I wonder how long that will last ;)

Throughout the whole match please ;)

[traveller7]

So far, Andy is being very considerate about us UK lot. Bless him! Keep it up Andy!

[-J-]

lolz.no need to mock :) im trying not to look at ispy between points

[-J-]

no one had 6-1 no PS's today

[pabbers]

When ERV remembers to volley it's not so easy. Surprised he didn't do it more in the first set. He's good at the net.

[Hawkeye]

no one had 6-1 no PS's todayGood news for the current leader!

[david1610]

Gets it right again:
Times tennis correspondent Neil Harman on Twitter: "Not sure Roger-Vasselin has any idea what to do against AM. If our man keep his concentration he'll win this very easily."

[hfwardhouse]

When ERV remembers to volley it's not so easy. Surprised he didn't do it more in the first set. He's good at the net.

He didn't get many chances at the net in the first set ..... hope Andy manages to keep him back for the rest of the match!

[40-15]

break point!!

[hfwardhouse]

[hfwardhouse]

Aaaaaargh COME ON ANDY!

[Manaus]

What a fight this is! Keep going Andy, the break will come!

[KnightOwl]

And deuce again - Andy looking a bit frustrated!

[Hawkeye]

Andy can't rely on the mistakes any more, needs to step it up.
