    Janowicz has a hell of a serve on him.

    I was going to, but I didn't want to make Comic Sans more annoying than it already is. But fine, I've changed it :(

    Important for Murray to get his first serves in as his second serves are nothing to write home about, which is the reason he struggled a bit in his last match. Suspect this match could come down to tie breaks.

    Janowicz is hitting the ball very hard. Too hard at times. With all the tape on his arm he slightly reminds me of Ivan Drago. So far both men are serving too well for it to be a classic.

    South coast derby between Sussex and Hampshire about to start.

    Tennis on the TV, Yorkshire vs Lancs t20 on skygo on the laptop, Sussex vs Hants t20 radio commentary on the iPad, window open and beer in hand.

    Murray wins the second set 6-4.

    One set all.

    Odd match so far. Seems likely the roof will be closed at some point as well.

    Well unless someone wins back-to-back sets here in double quick time, they're presumably not going to have any choice. Light won't hold forever.

    Actually, looking at it, I'm not even sure they could get two quick sets in.

    Yeah. Not sure who that favours (if anyone).

    I really don't think Murray has been playing that well this tournament but he keeps finding ways to win the big points - two more break points saved and it's 1-1 in the 3rd.

    It'd probably need to be 6-0 6-0 so it's unlikely.

    I miss last summer. They should have the Olympics every year.

    Oh hello. This is bubbling up nicely now. Janowicz breaks, Murray breaks back and the crowd seem to have come to life a bit more.

    Murray breaks the serve of Janowicz. 5-4 and Murray to serve in the third set.

    This isn't a exciting game. But Murray is doing well.
