US Open Tennis

If I was a betting man I would say fed will break here

7-1 inrunning with Betfair
 
Disappointed he did not break there, big opportunity gone at this point.

Bad call I think.
 
Why didn't Murray appeal when Federer hit that backhand slice long?

He would need to have stopped that point right at that point. Some players would have queried it after a few hits - Credit to Murray for his sportsmanship.

Their are players on the circuit who are known to query points well after the point has been played and precedent was set in France where an umpire allowed Monfils query a point after 10 hits after.

Must players don't like it, but some do it and it is considered unsportsmanlike
 
I think Murray will take this set, the momentum has shifted.

Wow. Fair play to the lad.

I would have queried it. First grabd slam, break point. feck sportsmanship.
 
He probably still thought he'd win the point, plus he was 0-40 up.
 
Murray not been agressive IMO. Any time he has shown agression he has hit the net chord.
 
All the more reason to take a gamble on a dodgy call. Nothing to lose.

Its like Cricket PM -some things are just not done or expected to be done.

Even harder when federer is a legend and he hates these line calls
 
Good man Murray - Lets get that Serve going so you don't have to worry about your service games
 
Betfair have Fed at 1/5 at present - No bug shift in second set yet
 
Good hold in the end. Massive game for Murray here, lose it and the match could be gone.
 
Murray play-acting Nadal/Djokovic style.
 
serving nothing like he did against Nadal...

Losing aload of advantage he had there
 
fecks sake Federer handing that game to him there, just pushing little slice backhands mid court then making errors. :rolleyes:
 
Murray winning the undecided fans over in New York with that.

Nice one
 
BBC 5 live commentary. Jeff Tarango is good

Won't play for me, I like getting pissed off at him in a way anyway. Especially seeing as the guy will try and take some credit for training him ages ago.
 
YESS!! fecking class from Federer, stepping it up at just the right time, Murray couldn't handle it.
 
Federer too good

especially on hard court, was surprised by how poor he was playing after Wimbledon, that 5 set loss must have taken a lot out of him, but it's clear that no one is in his league on this style of court
 
Some good stuff played by Murray towards the end of that set as well. Federer just turned it on at the right time.
