Anyone watching Murray - Dimitrov?

Little tired here, woke up to watch the final two sets of Nadal's match, went back to sleep at 7 and now watching this

Just turned it on a few minutes ago. Missed the first set. Anything interesting?
 
Top quality, that game. I hope it goes into 5 sets. I can't remember the last time I saw Murray playing that aggressive. He's amazing today. Dimitrov is just his usual self - brilliant and beautiful to watch. If he actually decides to turn his serve on he'll turn this around.

Great match so far between Murray and Dimitrov this. Murray should have won the 2nd set and hence the match by now.
 
Dimitrov's looked good in this set. Hopefully Murray can turn it around
 
Very high quality game. Murray was on another level today. What a shit way to win the last point though.
 
Murray-Kyrgios will be good match. Hoping Murray wins so that there is Murray-Nadal semi.
 
Didn't watch Azarenka match but disappointed. Was hoping to watch her against Serena.

Nishikori-Ferrer starting now.

Same. Would be a good test for both Murray and Nadal. Murray who has struggled for form since basically winning Wimbledon. It was great to see his aggressive side against Dimitrov. And Nadal is slowly getting back to his best. But Berdych will be a tough opponent. Watched him this tournament and he's been very good so far.

Ya Berdych will be a good test for Nadal.

Murray needs to massively improve his 2nd serve. It was awful yesterday. He is also not finding corners that much as yet or at least wasn't yesterday. On plus side, noticed the aggressive play by Murray and it was good to see. He will need that against Nadal if he makes semis. Out baselining Nadal is nearly impossible. Perhaps only one man can do it and he is number one currently :)

It's been awful for a long time though hasn't it? He really needs to have a good serving match against the top players or he'll get exposed too much. I hope he faces Nadal and does beat him though. Really don't want Nadal to win it, can't stand him.

Ya and it is surprising because his first serve is good. His first serve in percentage was quite high as well yesterday so couldn't understand reason behind those awful 2nd serves. If you are serving well enough to get high 70s % first serve in, it is better to serve like that on 2nd with risk of double fault. Much better than serving at 130kph and effectively letting opponent take charge.
 
She is fit as well. I used to like Wozniacki as well but then I found out she's a Liverpool fan :mad:
She might be Liverpool fan just to piss off Rory now. I refuse to believe such a beautiful girl can be Liverpool fan on her own.
 
Radwanska totally turned the game on its head in 2nd set.
 
Nadal a set and 4-0 down versus berdych .:eek: Wonder if this is the year berdych does a wawrinka.
 
Nadal isn't even trying. He usually chases everything down but not sure what he's playing at today.

And TBF Berdych is playing unbelievable.
 
Fair play to berdych. 17 losses in a row against Nadal and he held it together really well after losing 3 match points. Could have easily crumbled mentally.
 
No problem. Rafa will come back to win 10th Nadal open, also erstwhile known as French open.

Yep.

I think quarters was realistic for Rafa here considering the little tennis he had. Berdych was just another level today. Will be interesting if Murray gets through as Berdych has hired his old coach.

My dream this year is still to see one more Federer vs Nadal grand slam final.

Ya, Rafa wasn't his usual self but that is understandable given how little tennis he had as you said before this. Quarters is decent performance. Murray has good chance of making finals now. Won't be easy at all but he will take facing Kyrgios-Berdych en route to final than Federer-Nadal.

I want 18th for Federer this year. Wimbledon will do. Also hope Djoker can win French open at some stage, either this year or next whenever. He is too good a player on all surfaces not to have a career slam. Couple of more slams for Nadal before he retires is also on my wishlist, with one being Australian which will mean he will have at least 2 on each surface. Hall mark of GOAT.
 
Bredych played some great tennis here,held his nerve on those crucial movements. Not loosing single set till now,i hope he gets on to the final.

Would be happy with any of that. Just need to savour the years these guys are playing hence why I want to see them play against each other as much. I'm not a fan of these new up and coming servebots.
