It will be interesting to see this Pella guy who knocked Rosol out of the final round of qualifications take on Davydenko.

NITB... Murray is starting to play well though.
I don't think anyone expected Bogo to do too well, but Murray has played some good shots (but some silly errors too).
Have you been impressed by the use of the drop-shot?- Bogomolov isn't the quickest and he's really struggled here.

Bog is looking like a joke, making Murray look better than he actually is at the moment. Anybody else would've taken advantage of all those break points.
Murray not bad, I suppose he's only played one match on hard courts since Miami and that was a long time ago.
Defending very well, but there again Bogo is so bad it's not that hard.

Bogomolov is OK, average for a 1st round encounter for a seed I'd say. He's not that bad. Last year he actually showed some great form, but this year he's been pretty poor. He also changed to a Russian passport, maybe that has put pressure which has affected him.. I don't know.

Bogomolov breaks straight away- Murray is really not playing well here. He can't keep on getting away with drop shots- he has to play with more accuracy here.

Bogo was very good last year. He even knocked Murray out in Miami (2nd round).
Ever since he started playing for Russian DC team, his form went down.
USTA were quite upset with him leaving them after "all they had done for him"

...an the third. Despite the fluctuations throughout the match, Murray looked comfortable and in good shape, quite fluid and didn't bash the ball much at all.

I thought someone was fine with any kind of insulting behaviour by turning a blind eye to it. Another word-HYPOCRISY
Mikey, you are free to say whatever you want, there is no moderation here.

If that is the case, and you are right, then I think a slight change in policy is required. Of course it is upto Tenez, but he should recognise personal insults/ offensive language should not be tolerated.

Amrit, it does not matter anyway but I was surprised to read the telling off nitb was giving to mikey when she was the one who seems to be okayed with freedom of expression, specially when it is done in humorous way

Sock has won his first round match. Amrit, Somdev is playing today. Good to see him in the main draw, I hope that he at least wins his first round match. He is your fav player, innit?

Somdev second though. Last year he was playing well, this year his form has been a bit poor. I was pleased when he won Commonwealth Gold last year too- but he couldn't do well at the Olympics
