Absolutely not. The tv companies and fans want to watch the top players.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Obviously it's nice to hear about a David vs Goliath situation but in general you want to see the top players playing each other.

Murray should be on at aroud 2:30pm.
I would think he'll win that in straight sets.

First set to Murray, 6-3.
Currently 3-1 to Murray in the second set, although should be 4-0 as Murray just had 0-40 on Matosevic's serve.

Murray wins 6-3 6-1 6-3.
He plays 28th seed Philipp Kohlschreiber next in the third round.
They've only met once before, which was also on clay four years ago, and Kohlschreiber hammered him 6-2 6-1.
Hopefully won't be a repeat here!

Has Kohlshreiber done much since that meeting and is it on Saturday?

Saying on the radio that his new coach is rumoured to be Amelie maresmo (speliing ?). Interesting, if so
apologies if already discussed to death elsewhere..

That would be one hell of a left field appointment!

Kohlschreiber is a decent player who's never really threatened to win any top events.
If Murray plays at his best, he'll win comfortably but Kohlschreiber is ranked 24th in the world at the moment so he's clearly a dangerous opponent.
I'm going to say Murray in four sets.
And yes it's on Saturday.

That would certainly be an interesting choice!

It wasn't clear how solid a rumour it was, but he was certainly saying he had spoken to both men and women for the role, and that he didn't think gender was an issue.

Murray doing his best to make sure he has to come back tomorrow to finish his match.
He was a break up in the fourth set and 2 sets to 1 up but Kohlschreiber got the break back and has now broken Murray again to go 5-4 up and he'll now serve to take it into a decider.

Murray goes up an early break in the fifth set but Kohlschreiber wins three games in a row and it's Murray who's now a break down.

4-3 Murray now.
Am I right in thinking he'll rise significantly in the rankings after this as he missed the French last year?
Edit: Just checked, looks like he might go up a couple of places at most.
5-4 Murray nowLast edited by Speedy; 31-05-2014 at 07:16 PM.

Kohlschreiber levels at 7-7 in the fifth set.
Match is called off for the night.
