Well done Feliciano Lopez, a full singles match, finishing off a quarter final doubles, immediately followed by a semi final doubles, he must have been shattered to say the least! He has a single and a doubles final as a reward.
Touches of the old Andy emerged during both these double matches but he still has quite a way to go. I think his nerves kicked in trying to serve out the match but between them, they got the job done. Lopez started to flag a little so Andy stepped up a notch, when Andy got tight, Lopez stepped up. Andy was very attentive to Lopez throughout, constantly geeing him on.
I shall look forward to the matches today.
Looking forward to today's matches, but have them on record because my son and daughter in law are treating us to lunch out. I will go mad if the BBC don't show it all and put it on the red button! Lovely to see Andy back in action.
ReplyDeleteEither way on the doubles, we’ll have a British winner.
DeleteBrilliant to see them win. Did feel sorry for Lopez. Hope Andy finds a partner for mixed doubles for wimbledon. I see qualifying is on red button next week
ReplyDeleteI think the event organisers could have done better by switching the two semi finals singles around to give him a bit of a break.
DeleteI think it was absolutely brilliant.
ReplyDeleteCertainly was. A great final as well.
