Guest Flash Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 (edited) How come every time Tsonga wins a point we can hear the French captain shouting, yet when Murray wins one, we can't hear anything from the GB team who are shouting plenty? ETA obviously getting on Murray's tits as well - he won a point and shouted Allez! Chortle. Edited July 17, 2015 by Flash 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

booitsme7 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Clearly going to all be on the doubles tomorrow You would think that but last year in the Quarter-Finals against Italy when GB won the doubles to lead 2-1 only to lose 3-2. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Bairn Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 You would think that but last year in the Quarter-Finals against Italy when GB won the doubles to lead 2-1 only to lose 3-2. Murray playing Fognini on clay is a different kettle of fish from playing Simon at Queens. I'd put Andy Murray in for Inglot tomorrow. Gives us the best chance to win the tie imo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Murray goes up 4-1 with a double break, should close it out in straight sets from here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
booitsme7 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Murray wins 7-5 7-6 6-2 in 2 hours 35 minutes. Once Murray won the 2nd set tiebreaker there was only going to be one winner. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Talk on BBC was that Andy Murray would be rested tomorrow but how much of a chance do Jamie Murray & Inglot have of beating Gasquet & Mahut? Ward isn't going to beat Tsonga, so surely the Murrays have to play tomorrow as if we lose the doubles we've lost the tie regardless of Murray-Simon? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamonds are Forever Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 The argument against that is that if the doubles match goes to 5 sets then Andy would be less likely to beat Simon, although I think he would beat him anyway. I've not seen enough of Inglot to really judge, although I know he has a huge serve and is probably a more similar partner to John Peers, which might be better given Jamie's recent success. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AberdeenBud Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I'm guessing Smith will just let Andy decide. I'd have him in the doubles without doubt, if he feels capable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Flash Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I think they might go with Inglot and Jamie Murray because they took the Bryan brothers to 5 sets in the last round. They also need to think of Andy Murray's season because he has played a lot of matches this summer and the US Open Series is coming up soon. I think Andy will say he wants to play because he'll be thinking of the team, but it might be better to give him the day off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AberdeenBud Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 The RoS on the deciding set point in the second was unreal. 138 mph serve I think, think Tsonga's shock it came back over played a part in him punting it long. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Talk on BBC was that Andy Murray would be rested tomorrow but how much of a chance do Jamie Murray & Inglot have of beating Gasquet & Mahut? Ward isn't going to beat Tsonga, so surely the Murrays have to play tomorrow as if we lose the doubles we've lost the tie regardless of Murray-Simon? Ward is far more likely to beat Tsonga than Simon. His best results have come against guys with big serves and poor return of serves, he has beaten Isner and Querry for GB in the World Group. Simon is a very good return of server, Tsonga not so much. If Kazakhstan win their doubles tomorrow I think they might shift Andy in with his brother. Kazakhstan winning (despite their pedigree) is a big upset. But any side that can take the best doubles partnership to five sets, has a chance against a team that has rarely played irrespective of how good they are individually. Inglot and Jamie Murray are doubles specialists. I would go with them. You can't rely on Andy Murray to play three matches all the time. The argument against that is that if the doubles match goes to 5 sets then Andy would be less likely to beat Simon, although I think he would beat him anyway. I've not seen enough of Inglot to really judge, although I know he has a huge serve and is probably a more similar partner to John Peers, which might be better given Jamie's recent success. The last time Murray played all three matches he looked depleted against Fognini. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
