Caledonian Craig Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 He's (Edmund) playing Kyrgios in the next round so could actually face Murray in R3 if he manages to get the better of the Aussie! I can't see him beating Kyrgios who is actually younger than Edmund. Kyrgios is tipped by many to be a slam winner in coming years and he's already beaten Nadal in his time.

Caledonian Craig Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Edmund has pulled out of the match against Kyrgios with a stomach muscle injury. Kyrgios gets a bye through to the Third Round where he will play Murray (I hope) or Jaoa Sousa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

min Posted May 28, 2015 Author Share Posted May 28, 2015 Any idea what time Murray is playing I'd guess about 2.00pm, but impossible to be sure. All depends how long the first two matches on centre court last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caledonian Craig Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Nadal V Almagro match has just started with Murray match following this one. If the rallies are long drawn out affairs but Rafa wins in straight sets it should be done and dusted by 2.30pm. If it goes to four or five sets then it may be around 3 or 4pm when it starts.

Caledonian Craig Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Murray through but dropped a set in the process. Sousa is in decent form though as reached a clay court final last weekend so it is no massive surprise. Murray must up his game against Kyrgios in the next round though as he is far more dangerous and talented player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murray must up his game against Kyrgios in the next round though as he is far more dangerous and talented player. Kyrgios far more talented than Sousa but his game is more suited to hard court and grass. Murray should come through this and then I imagine play Geffen? He's getting tough matches but not having to be at his best. That's not a bad thing for the first week of a grand slam tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
min Posted May 30, 2015 Author Share Posted May 30, 2015 Murray first up today, so about to arrive on court. His first real test at RG - looking forward to this one! Kyrgios is a tremendous prospect, but at the moment Murray should be too strong...hopefully! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanderark14 Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 1st set to Murray 6-4 I think he will win today but I can't see him beating ferrer on clay. I know he's on form but ferrer has the better of him on clay, Id love him to do It but to win this tourney he will need to overcome ferrer who is a different beast on clay, one of nadal or djockovic then probably federer. Far too too much to overcome them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think age is catching up to him and this will be his last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add to that the fact that Andy is probably playing the best clay court tennis of his career then I'd be disappointed if Murray loses to Ferrer but first of course Andy and David have to get there.

Caledonian Craig Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Murray embroiled in a scrap. Currently, holds a very narrow lead over Chardy 6-4 3-6 2-1. Too passive so far by Andy allowing Chardy to tee off with big groundstrokes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caledonian Craig Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Chardy has played very well but believe that has a lot to do wth Andy not hitting the lines and leaving shots in the hitting zone. Chardy thrives on that. Anyway Andy now a couple of breaks up in the fourth set so looks assured of a quarter-final place now. Next up will be David Ferrer and that will be a tough match for Andy who has never beaten Ferrer on clay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biffer Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Two breaks up at 4-1 in the fourths, should be fine me from here. Never beaten Ferrer on clay before - but before today he'd never beaten Chardy on clay either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caledonian Craig Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Never beaten Ferrer on clay before - but before today he'd never beaten Chardy on clay either. Yes he had. He beat Chardy in Rome 6-4 6-3 a couple of weeks ago. Murray safely through in four sets but you feel he'll need to go up through the gears to beat David Ferrer. More aggression and more in command of points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
