Sucks that this match was basically over in the first game, but Nishikori (who Murray owns) blowing a 0-40 chance to start the match was basically that. Andy should cruise now.

Nishikori says not so fast my friend and takes the second set 6-4.
/In Canadian related news, Bianca Andreescu won her second round match in the girls' singles (6-2 6-3) and Felix Auger Aliassime was also victorious in his 2nd round match in the boys singles (tough three set win (4-6, 6-3, 6-4)

He should thank the Gods they closed the roof. Totally different match since that point.

why did the players leave the court when they closed the roof?
I saw it on tv in the mall with no sound.

Ugly give away game for Nishikori there.
Edit: Even uglier give right back by Andy....and then Nishikori gets broken again right away. Are we sure this isn't women's tennis?

I cannot believe this match might turn on someone hitting a gong mid-point, but here we are. Andy has lost his mind a touch since that happened.

Actually it's the butterfly now that has Andy going mad. This is insane. Nishikori up a break in the 5th.

That PAs gone off too many times. It went off when Konjah was serving for the match against Radwanska.

Oh it's embarrassing for the USTA for this to happen, but Andy going on a massive meltdown afterwards is embarrassing for him. I think the butterfly pissed him off even more though. Credit to Kei though, Andy gave him the opening and he has ran with it.

Oh boy, Nishikori blows a 40-0 lead to go up 5-3, back on serve at 4-4.

Blah. Raonic gets returnbot Murray at Wimbledon, and Nishikori gets meltdown Murray.
Hell of a performance by Kei though.

This is kinda shocking, but Nishikori has the best winning percentage in the Open era in deciding sets with a record of 97-26. Never would have thought that.

Halep fought her ass off to win that set. Not sure she'll have enough left in the third, especially with the crowd against her, but here's hoping.
