Andy vs Sebastion Korda - around 18.00 on Friday

At 17.30 the previous match is 2 all in the third set.

[banskogirl]

Just about to finish, hopefully!

How do players ever prepare for their match time!?

[Jan]

Neither player wants to win this one!!

[banskogirl]

At last! Andy time!

[harriet]

is anyone able to see this?
oh dear, i see korda is serving at 5 - 2 for the first set.

[exislander]

Yes, he broke and held but Korda took set 6-4

[harriet]

andy has broken back, serving at 3 - 5
korda gets a second go, 5 - 4
and this time he makes it.

andy will serve first in set 2. good andy got one break back

[harriet]

andy has a break, kit-kat as we used to say, he's serving at 2 - 0

[harriet]

andy now 3 - 0, korda to serve
andy gets a second kit-kat! serving at 4 - 0
kit-kat 3, andy serving for the set at 5 -0
(djo would drop serve here, and then break (korda) to win 6 -1
thus serving first in decisive third set)

[Gary D]

I'm only following via the score. Has Korda gone awol, or is Murray rampant?

[harriet]

andy takes second set 6 - 1
he followed the djo playbook

[harriet]

i'm just on the beeb live scores, that only shows games not points as well
and their indication of which player is serving is rather wonky
set 3, andy is serving at 0 1, tho i thought andy would have served first in this set - that is the object of the playbook

[harriet]

ooops! andy drops serve, korda at 2 - 0

[harriet]

korda holds, andy at 0 - 3

[exislander]

The ATP livescores gives more info if you don't have streaming.

[harriet]

double ooops! after a very long game andy has dropped serve again, korda now at 4 0. this is bad

[Jane]

Andy lost the third set - 1-6 :crying:

I watched on Bet365

[jackie55]

Oh dear what a shame:crying:

[HoopGirl]

Seemed like a strange match - Andy winning 6-1 second set and then losing third set 6-1!

[HoopGirl]

Andy lost the third set - 1-6 :crying:

I watched on Bet365

How was he playing Jane?

[banskogirl]

How was he playing Jane?

Yes quite strange? I didn’t get to watch after second set!

[JAMES4578]

Certainly disappointing, pity Andy could not maintain the momentum after the 2nd.
