Geez, an 18 minute game, 5 break points saved.
Despite each set not going to tiebreak or having many total games in each set the games have each individually taken a very long time. There have been plenty of deuce games and lengthy rallies. Maybe one or two single games thus far have gone 40-15, they have all been so back and forth you really don't know who will win one game to the next.

Crazy thing is, Novak is playing like shite, and his strategy is horrible not going at any of Murray's weaknesses, but he is still tied in this match.

Ideal overview

Its about as even of a match as I can remember. Certainly not the prettiest tennis by any means. Last night's Fed/Nadal match tops this ten fold in technique and skill.

You can usually credit one's sloppy play to the other's great play. But, like you said, it's sloppy on both ends. It's one of those entertaining yet pull-your-hair-out matches

what a wasted opportunity by Murray

God Murray could make Roddick look clutch as ice. That dude can never win a set on his serve.

LOL at Murray having more winners so far, although a very crappy winners/UE ratio.

And Murray takes the third.

That was one of the craziest sets of tennis I've seen. Overcoming 3 set points to tie it at 5 games, then winning in the tiebreak. Murray is finding ways to get it done

Looks like a 5 set 5+ hour match

Anyone else think it's weird the top seed plays his semi on fri instead of thurs? Does it always work that way in the Australian? Seems ud reward the top guy if someone is gonna get an extra day of rest.

That was a quick set. Murray should have really put some effort in that last service game so that he at least gets to serve first in the 5th.

what a point 
Murray coming up with HUGE first serves on break points.

Murray nearly got broken earlier this set, now he has. He's playing with fire and now Djokovic is incredibly amped up. Novak is pumped

SCORE????? TIA.

5-3 djokovic in the third, serving for match but will probably get broken
