Australian Open Day 6: Match of the Day

Andy Murray vs. Michael Llodra

Murray and Llodra take the court for a night match on Hisense.

The Scot owns the career edge 2-0, but these two haven't played since the U.S. Open in 2008.  Murray will try and do what he has been doing in previous matches; constructing the points and waiting for the right time to be aggressive.

Llodra is a cagey vet who will look to take the net and make Murray hot passing shots.

I like Murray, but I have a feeling about this match being closer than most think it will be.

Murray wins in 4 tough sets.

Andy Murray Advances Barely

Brit, Andy Murray beat No. 15 Victor Troicki 4-6, 4-6, 6-3, 6-2, 7-5 on Tuesday and reach the French Open quarterfinals by winning a match that stretched over two days.

Murray trailed 5-2 in the decisive fifth set, but he broke back when Troicki was serving for the match, winning the final five games.

Troicki broke in the sixth game of the fifth set, but only after a ball boy ran onto the court during the first point and forced a replay even though Troicki smashed an overhead winner.

The match started Monday, and Troicki dominated the first two sets. But Murray responded, pulling himself back into the match before play was halted by darkness.
