Good win this evening for Muzza! Looked good, like he's getting into some form. Excellent chance of winning this tournament and going to number 2

He plays Gasquet tonight in the semis. BBC saying it will be about 11:00pm.

Beat him in 3 sets: 6-7 (3-7) 6-1 6-2. Has David Ferrer in the final on Sunday.

Some great tennis from Muzza this evening

Ferrer will be a tough match and he'll have to be near his best to beat him.

[Shaggy]

I doubt it personally. Ferrer is class and looks class against 'the rest' but almost always gets thumped by the top 4. Muzza number two

[Buzzo]

Encouraging start to the year.

He does, but I've read that these courts are relatively slow, which will suit Ferrer's game. He's ****ing good, just not quite as good as the top 4. Andy can't just turn up and win though, he'll need to be near his best. Ferrer is one tough competitor.

He's very unlucky to be in this era. Pretty much any other time and he'd have won at least a couple of French opens.

[Shaggy]

Having said what I said, I read on the Beeb earlier that their head to head is close...7-6 Murray I think. He always gets destroyed though by Novak, Rafa and Roger.

[Chazza]

**** start 3-0 down in the first.

[Chazza]

Make that 4-0

[Chazza]

Wow 5-0

[Chazza]

First set lost 6-2.

Forget that and move onto the next one sharpish.

[Shaggy]

Jesus.

[Chazza]

Better.

3-1 up in the 2nd.
