Evans/Murray (GBR) v Gille/Vliegen (Belgium) - 4th Suzanne Lenglen toady

[Speedy Hawk]

Sally, yep it is! Still fun to spot them in crowd on TV etc.

Phew glad they manage to hold win set. Hopefully win 2nd set as well.

[clancy]

Didn't realise they were so high ranking (had not heard of them and thought the French boys would win the earlier round). 2nd set may be harder. x

[Speedy Hawk]

Getting really close 2nd set, 5-5. Hopefully Andy and Evans break now so that they can serve it out next game.

Tiebreak for the 2nd set.

Vliegen to serve for Belgium:-
*0-1
0-2* Dan serving. Good shout by Andy to get the Umpire down to check that ball was long ...
1-2* Rats, broken back.
*1-3
*2-3 So the Brits have a mini-break, Andy to serve.
3-3* DF from Andy ... all square at the change of ends.

[Sallydaisy]

The Belgians go a break up ... Andy has lost both his serves.
Vliegen to serve at *4-3.
*4-4 Gille missed the shot, back on serve ...
*5-4 ........................ Dan must hold both serves now.

[Sallydaisy]

5-5* GBR. Dan has one more serve and must hold.
5-6* 1 point and they're into the QF.

[Speedy Hawk]

I mistyped. I meant to say win tie break next!

But they haven't yet.

[Teresa]

I am hiding as usual.

7-7* Andy with one more serve ...
7-8* and a bullet from Andy brings up match point number 2!
