What an unbelievable match between Murray and Berrettini, and a sensational win for Murray. No matter what you think of him as a person, his will to win and passion can never be doubted. Berrettini sent down 31 aces and in sets 3 and 4 was almost unplayable. Doubt they'll be another match as good as this in the rest of the tournament but here's hoping. Murray will do well to recover from that with his metal hip, but I hope it doesn't stop him playing to that standard. That was fantastic to watch !

Murray has seldom received the praise he deserves.
Achieving what he has in the same era as Djokovic, Federer and Nadal is an incredible feat.

I fear this could be the end for Rafa. Already suffering from chronic foot and knee trouble and now his hip has gone ! So sad to see him hardly able to move, think he'll try and finish the season just playing the majors if he can, and then call it a day. Thanks for all the unbelievable memories Rafa, they'll live long I the memory. The undoubted king of clay, and one of the greatest ever !

Radacanu with another type of injury, looks like a stomach affliction this time. Normally serves around 180 kph but is at 139 now ! I'm afraid she is the Luke Amos of tennis, never seeming to string together more than 2 matches in a row without another injury occurring. Why she hasn't got in a top coach ala Lendl is beyond me too

Suddenly she's improved, 3 games on the trot and 5-4 up in the 2nd ! Break again her Emma and level it up in sets. Serving a little faster now too, very strange

Holy ****, that match was even sicker than the other days. Longest match of Murray's career and one of the longest matches in Grand Slam history. Gone 4am in the morning there ! Incredible stuff to come back from 2 sets down against a guy serving bombs and playing so well. Like he said afterwards, he has a big heart ! Epic stuff
