Andy Murray

[Hiber-nation]

2 massive wins in a row for Andy in Florida - Berretini and now Etcheverry. Written off so many times. Life in the old dog yet alright!

[DaveF]

He has played pretty well but there needs to be a bit of context re his opponents. Berretini is only just back on the tour after months out with injury and I think that was Etcheverry's first game in 6 weeks or so after a hamstring injury.

He has a tough game against Mahac next. Would love to see him win that and go a bit further in the tournament.

He was writing himself off a few weeks ago!

Good couple of wins for him. He’s a long time finished competing at the business end of slams and bigger tournaments though. Think that’s where people have written him off and rightly so.

The fact he’s still doing what he is, after a long career and the treatment he’s had is impressive. Hopefully he can keep doing it and enjoying it for a bit longer yet.

First set won against Machac. Serving well.

[DaveF]

He played a great set of tennis. Pity about the rain but if he can keep this standard of tennis, he should win.

[DaveF]

He's on the verge of self destruction with his moaning at people in the crowd and bickering with the umpire but hangs on for 5-5, saving 2 set points.

Second set heading for a tie break

Cracking up now. Needs to keep his cool but can't see him winning anyway.

Second set heading for a tie break

Murray's serve broken , 1 set each now

[Sloop67]

This stuff with the crowd is really bugging him now , he losing his focus

[DaveF]

He clearly plays well when fired up but it's a fine line between using that angst in a positive or negative way. Towards the end of that set he just seemed determined to let anything and everything get on his nerves and then proceeded to make a few unforced errors and eventually handed over the set.

Machac looks totally unfazed by it all and I'll be surprised if he loses from here, unless Murray can clear his head and do what he does best.

[Sloop67]

Going to be tough for Murray from here

[Sloop67]

It wouldn't be an Andy Murray match without some drama

[Hiber-nation]

Aye crazy even by Murray's standards!

[Hiber-nation]

Really thought he was going to win that.

[DaveF]

Great effort from Murray but credit to Machac who played those final tie break points brilliantly.

Looks like Andy's injury is pretty serious

All the more remarkable that he carried on and almost won the game. He will want to play Wimbledon so hopefully he makes that and then packs in to enjoy his retirement.

From what I've read today, any surgery that is required should be able to be done keyhole, so that should hopefully cut down the recovery time a little
