...I suppose you did say he was broken once in the first and faced lots of bps in the second, so that means that he wasn't really in control... still, would be nice to hear updates on how his game is

whether it's any better than it was in Davis Cup, or not yet.

I saw his Davis Cup play, but I can't make any comparison, as I couldn't view it today.

But I'm so happy he won today. He worked hard over the weekend, and it was great to see him pull out the win.

Just checked the web site. Not sure how often they update the live score, but it looks like Flipper and Rebredo are still going at it. Split the first two sets.

Yup! 8:00 p.m. PDT and they just started the third set. Mac/Bjork might not be able to play until midnight.

Ash Doyle · 02-16-2006, 04:15 AM

McEnroe fastest serve of the match was 119 mph, and there were no breaks against his serve and he even had two games where no point was even scored against his serve.

GRANITECHIEF · 02-16-2006, 06:55 AM

Article on ATPtennis.com said Mac dug out of 15-40 once and 0-40 later.

Great win against #2 seeds. He and Jonas might even win another match or two.

ACE of Hearts · 02-16-2006, 05:11 PM

Hewitt beats Sam Warburg, 6-4, 6-3, i hope we get a Roddick vs Hewitt final.Alot of people think Hewitt is finished, i am not one of them.

StraightSets · 02-16-2006, 08:17 PM

Philippoussous bows out to Soderling.

Veteran Wayne Arthurs upsets Tursonov in 3 sets.

Noelle · 02-16-2006, 08:43 PM

Roddick dropped the second set against Kenneth Carlsen (1-6) but went on to win the match anyway.

BTW Carlsen was wearing a pink Lotto shirt, like Hrbaty's. I don't know if they had the holes in the back.

Oh...no....one is enough.

Did Hrbaty convert him into pink holism?

aznkb888 · 02-17-2006, 12:11 AM

i was there and i can say thank goodness carlsen's shirt didn't have holes...but people around me were wondering what was up with the pink shirt...hahah

alienhamster · 02-17-2006, 07:22 PM

Roddick's playing Phau right now, and he's actually looking like a confident baseliner again. Granted, his opponent is probably helping his confidence. But Roddick is actually hitting his backhand better--the slices are sticking, the topspin shots are deeper or hit at better angles, and the returns are hit with more authority.

Looks like he'll play MUrray tomorrow--looking forward to that one.

Volly master · 02-17-2006, 07:56 PM

w00t, the battle of the two andy's. how fun !

Noelle · 02-17-2006, 10:48 PM

Andy Murray vs. Andy Roddick head-to-head:
0-0

This will be their first career meeting. I don't know about you, but if Roddick can lose a set to Kenneth Carlsen and go out in the first round of the US Open to Gilles Muller, the unknown quantity Murray may legitimately pose a threat to him. Hopefully Roddick can make some forcing plays against Murray and take charge of their match; today's match with Phau he just was content to rally.

When do Rod and Murray play? Hewitt beat athurs in straight sets in the quarters.

Rod and Murray play in tomorrow night's session. I'll be there and I'm looking forward to it. I think it this will be Roddick's first real test of the tournament so far.
