Murray needs to sort his head out here.

Murray has really gone off the boil, he needs to switch on.

Could Djokovic have scripted his US Open any better?  Comes in with a nagging injury and 3 out of his 5 games so far, the opponent has quit the game.

Exactly what I thought! How lucky is Djokovic? I still think Murray will be beat him in the final.
Got to beat Nishikori first...easier said than done...breaking at will at moment...better than watching cricket as well....another break.
Serving for set...can he hold this time??

Murray is really mentally flaky today. It's so strange how this comes over him sometimes.

It's so strange how momentum shifts like this in tennis matches, so much of it is mental. Not looking good for the four finals in a year now.

Murray loses in the 5th set! Strange match. Murray nowhere near his best. Disappointing.

Murray is all about fitness.  Not the greatest technically.  However as  I find out to my dismay fitness in racket sports is the No 1 factor - I play squash and racketball to a fairly decent area standard  but when your opponent gets to everything its a mind blowing thing.

As for Murray he is a master of knowing his limitations he will rise again (seems to have dips like this) don't write him off ever.

Davis Cup Semi Final against Argentina kicks off tomorrow

Andy Murray v Del Potro first up at 13:00. If half as good as Olympic final will be a good game.

Up in Glasgow again.
