2 More women's matches before Andy plays, so its most likely Andy will play quite a while after 3.30.

Katie B won 7-5 6-3 and Harriet took 1st set 6-0 against 5th seed although 2nd set might be less easy.

[exislander]

All 3 British women won today - no seeds left in their draw. Andy should be on court very soon.

[Sallydaisy]

5-5 in the 2nd set with no breaks either side so far ...
... but Andy has 30-0 on the Grenier serve, now 40-0 and 3 break points.

And gets the break so he'll serve for the match at 6'5

Woohoo!

Andy is looking more like his old self by the match. Think this is just what he needed, lots of competitive matches one after the other to reset his match hardiness and give him practice and confidence in his fab skills. Really enjoying the grass court season so far.
