shaun.lawson Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 There was virtually nothing in that set, but strange to see Roddick playing different than normal. Murray has to serve better in this set, Roddick did a lot more damage on Murray's serve than I thought he would. Still plenty time to go though but think he's got to win this set. That's what Stefanki said he would do. I struggle to imagine it working for a whole match though. Stefanki bothers me: I think he tends to improve his charges' results against weaker opponents, but messes them up tactically when it comes to tougher matches. He ruined Henman's serve, then wondered why Tim was getting blown off the court on grass! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Romanov Saviour of HMFC Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Tiger Tim would have went to the toilet after that set for a good greet and to phone his ma while Andy went to get his head together and get fired up. He's a winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loveofthegame Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Slow start again from Murray which IF he gets to the final would almost certainly cost him. Good response so far in the 2nd though. Not too worried yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a winner. Poor old Henman. He's even been demoted to radio commentary! And on the radio just now, his fellow commentator: "There's the voice of Tim Henman, who knows what it's like to lose the first set in a Wimbledon semi-final..." Pause, then laughter. Henman: "I know what it's like to lose three sets in a Wimbledon semi-final too..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the sense that Roddick is a bit of a Jason MacAteer when it comes to brain power (a bit like some who support him on here ) and so he'll struggle to keep his crafty game plan going now that Murray's started to relax and mix it up a bit.

Think you could be right there. Lendl always amazed me as his opponent would often be standing at the net covering and he just hit it straight back there anyway?

Think so. Plus the more Murray starts to play like this, Roddick might just start going back to how he usually plays and just thumping everything.

Mr Romanov Saviour of HMFC Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 He's in danger of losing the plot here. Got to work it to his advantage.

Martin Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Just not taking enough of his opportunities at the moment. Looks like he'll need to try and win it in five. Match probably all depends on how well Roddick serves for the rest of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy Wiseau Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Murray will go out unless he starts getting some first serves in. 58% in the second set was barely good enough and with Roddick nailing 80%-plus in - and being all over the puny Murray second serve - he'll struggle unless he can start buying some cheap points on serve.

I dunno how you can call someone considerably richer than you a tramp. "Come on, pass" = fine for an audible obscenity.
