The noise Andy makes when he's serving makes me think of creaky corsets! No idea why as don't think I've ever actually heard one creak.

There have been a lot of empty seats all tournament. It's appalling.

He had better be ok.

Rafa would have been fine in the heat.

Odd match now. You can't tell who is winning from the crowd.

Break!

Serving for the set.

What are they talking about? They don't know what was wrong, it was a brief moment where the sun got to him.

Murray and his wandering concentration at the worst timeSad.

Set to Djok.

He's going to want to get this over quickly if he's bothered by the heat.



Except it will be hotter Sunday, apparently.

Marion was explaining yesterday why Hawkeye on clay wasn't accurate - did anyone hear? I didn't understand what she meant.

Andy has a slight look of "mad professor" about him, particularly when he starts muttering away.

Raahh · 05/06/2015 17:35

She said something the other day day.I can't remember exactly, but I think the gist was that on clay the ball slides a bit, rather thana clean bounce. And hawkeye calculates the placing of the ball which wouldn't allow for that.

Or something.

Anyone on the couch can go and run two and a half miles? I don't think so Jim.

Jim has confirmed my suspicions that year year he has turned in to a knob.

There are some really good shots, but this match really isn't thrilling me.

It's not Rafa/Novak semi 2013, is it?

I don't think Boris is keeping up - no need to look so worried Boris, your man just won the second set.

There isn't much of an atmosphere Raahh, you're right. I still think there's something up with Djok.
