The way Andy has blown the first two sets is really textbook Andy. Just melting down at the worst possible time.

Jesus. Why did nobody tell me about this live blog before?

Quote:
Third set: Murray 3-6, 3-6, 1-2 Djokovic* (*denotes server): The umpire might be on Murray’s side. At 15-all, he gives Djokovic a time violation as he bounces the ball repeatedly, waiting for the blustery conditions to die down a little before serving. Djokovic is unflustered. He wins the point. I’m not sure if the warning even registered with him. He holds to 15. “If it rains and Murray is “rescued”, he still has to come out and play Novak afterwards,” says Mark Turner. “And Joker is living breathing awesome this week.” Not if it never stops raining. Murray will be on easy street if he spots a man building a wooden ship nearby.

Pretty sad this is going to end before I get to my usual Friday lunch pub.

Djokovic is currently dismantling Murray. Up two sets quickly.

I love the emotion that The Guardian is trying to evoke in their updates:

you know that the rain dance is a cricket reference right?

They should be required to mic Andy up for every match. His self discussions would be hilarious to hear no doubt.

Novak is falling apart right now. And this could be a debacle with this match likely to continue tomorrow if it goes 5 sets. With these two it could easily be 2-3 more hours for the no tiebreaker 5th set.

What a shame, match starts to hit high quality and high drama and then it's done. Obviously big disadvantage for Andy as he finally started to get rolling. Just put up the roof already damnit.

Djokovic has been lights out this 5th set.

So that was a pretty remarkable turn of events. From Serena in complete control up a set and two breaks, and now we're off to a third set. Great fight from Safarova.

Long weekend for Djoker. Is it possible the gas tank could start to run out if this goes another couple hours?
