Andy Murray/Tennis thread 2013

[RichC]

Fair play to Djok there, epic match. He's going to need that ice bath badly after that I think

[captainfog]

Excellent game of tennis. The longer Novak has to play the better it is for Andy (assuming Muzza progresses).

Monfils and Simon was a corker but that was the game of the tourney so far. My heart bleeds for Stan.

I don't care what Simon says - Murray will win in straight sets after turning Giles' legs to jelly.

Kick off's at 6am tomorrow. Given that my four year old girl wakes up as a five year old tomorrow, I reckon I might get to see some of this.

Yeah Murray should have way too much for Simon

Novak Djokovic on Twitter: "Stan, thank you very much!! I am sorry for your loss.. Wish you all the best for the rest of the season.. It was great pleasure

[Shaggy]

Easy for Murray this

[RichC]

This is the plus point for earlier, I can watch Murray destroy Simon

[RichC]

Felt a bit sorry for Simon really, clearly not recovered from the Monfils match.

Go on Murray

[Shaggy]

9 Grand Slam QFs in a row. Hasn't dropped a set yet

Jeremy Chardy next

[Buzzo]

Seems to be progressing easily without really having to play his best.

Tougher matches ahead.

It's on at around 3am tonight. Bloody Australia - why's it in such an inconsiderate time zone!

[Shaggy]

FFS. Quarters too, although he should have few problems against Chardy.

[the rev leeroy brown]

playing good tennis. the winter camp where he put on 4lb of muscle seems to be paying off already.

hopefully another grand slam is on the horizon for scotlands no 1 player!

[Buzzo]

Another Murray Djokovic final is a very tantalising prospect indeed. Small matter of Chardy and presumably Rfed in between.

[Shaggy]

What a route to the final he's had/got.
