In the first set between Scotsman Andy Murray and Denis Istomen
of Uzbekistan, Istomen broke to leave the score
from 3-3 to 4-3 but Murray got the break back to get the score to 5-4 which
meant he was still in with a chance and it went to a tie break. Murray managed
to take a mini break from 4-3 to 5-3 but Istomen hit a quality shot to make it
5-4. Murray then double faulted to make it 5-4 and then hit a bad shot to make it
6-5 against him, then he made another bad shot to loose the tie break 7-5 which means
Murray had it all to do.
Andy Murray did get an early break in the second to lead 3-1
and he did not loose any of his next 3 games and was starting to look good again
as he managed to take complete control of the second set but it is like looking
at 2 different players.
Andy Murray managed to break in the third game of the third
set Istomen broke back to make the score 3-3 but Murray got his break back to
make the score 4-3 and hit an awesome shot in the shot of the championship so far 10th
game no more games were broken so Andy Murray won the second 6-4
The ninth game was the big break in this match as Murray got
the break to win the set 6-4 winning the game against 30 and I am not to sure
how far it is that Andy Murray can go. In this game he has showed both his quality
and his poor form but his opponent unseeded or not did give him what he needed.
Serbian Novac Djokovic picked up the first break of the
match against Marcel Granollers to lead the set 4-2 and cruised into the lead
with a perfect scoring set winning every game that he served with to win the
first set 6-3
Novac got 2 early breaks in the second set to make it seem
like this set belongs to him as Marcel Granollers is not making any of his
volleys and loosing the set by 6 games to nil this set seemed to be too easy
for Novac and the final set was similar as the Serb got complete control to
lead it 5-0 and got over the line to reach the next round
Novac Djokovic did not drop a game on his own serve and
looked very impressive at this stage and I think that he needs a harder task to
see where exactly he stands as a player because from this I can not say but in
my opinion he does look like the favourite.
In my opinion Leyton Hewit seemed to be the favourite for the next match. The first set belonged to Mikhail Youzhny and the second belonged
to Lleyton Hewitt as they were both won by 6 games to 3 but in the third there
was a point at 4-4 that deserved to win any set 46 shots long and it went to
Hewit which he deserved to win. Youzhny got himself out of a giant hole
loosing the game 30-0 and 40-15 to come back level at 5-5 in the tie breaker.
Hewitt managed to out rally Youzhny to take the tie breaker by 7 points to 3
and go into a 2 sets to 1 lead
Youzhny managed to get his set back as he got the break
required and did very well to get his required break Hewitt broke in the final
set but Youzhny broke back to make the score 5-5 with some absolutely brilliant
shots as he broke to put the pressure on Hewitt big time Hewitt makes the error
at the end to put Russian Mikhail Youzhney through to the quarter final and I
think that a match like this will help him massively but I think the semis is
as far as he can go.
In the first set of the Berdych Wawrinka match Tomas Berdych won 6-3. The second was total domination by Wawrinka as he controlled the set and won 6-1
the third was on a close tie break as it was level at 4-4, 5-5 and 6-6 but Wawrinka
took the set and won by 8 points to 6 but this set was a little bit too close
for comfort. Wawrinka got the break to lead by 4 games to 2 as he picks up the
next his service game both with Berdych only picking up one point. He puts in a
heroes performance to win the final game on Berdychs serve and secure his
quarter final spot I am not sure hore that he can reach the semi finals

In the women’s draw Serena Williams was completely dominant
in the first set not allowing Suarez Navarro to get a single game and in the second
she could not get a game either and with a performance like this I think she
can play ands beat anyone
In the first set of the match between SerbAnna Ivanovic and Bulgerian
Victoria Azerenca Ivanovic took
control of the first set and won it by 6 games to 4 in the second got the break
required in the second by winning the game 4 points to 2. Victoria Azerenca broke
to love to get the 6th game and win the second set by 6 games to 3. Azerenca
breaks in the final set to make the score 3-1 and takes that advantage through
to 5-3 in the match she needs one more game to win Ivanovic gets the break back
in a bit of a thriller of a game as there were 4 deuces 2 match points and 2
break points in it. Azerenca though does win the match as the game goes to
deuce and Azerenca gets 2 match points against serve but doesn’t win them she
does though get the third.
