Andy Murray/Tennis thread 2014

[Buzzo]

I don't think he#ll beat Novak either - but I wouldn't be writing him off just yet. Very impressive win yesterday.

He's looking back to something close to his best form at the moment and he does love playing on the US hard courts.

Tough to see him beating Djokovic but he's certainly got it in his locker to do so.

[Buzzo]

I thought he was phenomenal last night. Tsonga is in great form and he wasn't even close to good enough to get near Murray.

Muzza the night session tomorrow, which was obvious but annoying! Will be lucky if he's started by 1.45am our time.

Novak Djokovic saw off Britain's Andy Murray in a gripping late-night contest to reach the US Open semi-finals.
The world number one came through 7-6 (7-1) 6-7 (1-7) 6-2 6-4 in a match that lasted three hours and 32 minutes, and finished at 01:17 local time (06:17 BST).

Murray played some great stuff his forehand was huge and giving Novak plenty to think abou.t Those first 2 sets took 2+ hours though and Murray tired in the last 2 sets and was constantly stretching his back out. But he played some good stuff and showed plenty of signs of encouragement. Playing as he did only 3 men could live with Murray last night - one of them was at the other end of the court.

He's done. Might as well retire.

[Buzzo]

Watch the 1st 2 sets.

[Chris]

I'd love to know whats up with him, it's clearly physical, he just cant last at the moment. 2 semi finals, 0 finals this season is horrendous for someone of his quality. Theres got to be more to this back stuff or something.

[Pablo]

Maursemo is only training him for three set matches

[Buzzo]

Nishikori on the verge of dumping Novak out!!!

Match point (x2)

[Buzzo]

Unbelievable - he did it!

[Buzzo]

First ever Asian male to reach a slam final.
