I might watch the first set since I'm on west coast time. Not sure how much later I'll make it.

I'm going to try and get as much in as possible. If Murray wins the first set I'm going to have to stay up and watch the entire thing though..so I'm hoping Fed can get a quick 1st set in.

That's exactly what I'll end up doing. The other night I was hoping that Fed would take the first set off of Davydenko so that I could go to sleep. I ended up watching the entire match.

Yeah sucks. Aussie open is probably my second favorite Grand Slam, but man the times in this thing or brutal..

Early break in the 2nd by Fed. It's probably over.

Murray desperately needed to hold right there. Fed is overpowering him though.

He looks very focused.

Murray just dodged several bullets and holds.

Fed keeps applying the pressure though. I don't think Murray's good for a break.

ETA: And he's not, Fed wins in a minute. His serve is gorgeous.

Fed with the advantage in Winners 33-15.

Fed wins 2nd set. 6-3, 6-4.

Murray is struggling to convert and Fed is blowing through his games.

ETA: ESPN Statistic, Fed 155-0 in majors when up 2-0. Wow.

Murray finally getting into rhythm. I think he needs to get more aggressive with the backhand.

Probably, but at least he showed up.

Where are the attractive British girls? So obnoxious.

Fed with a timely break. Murray might be feeling the pressure, he blew several shots last game.

No way Fed loses the match even if he gives up the 3rd set.

It was actually kind of funny to watch the end. I felt like Murray was playing lie if he won the set he was the champion. if he would have won the set he would have still had to beat the GOAT in the next two sets to be champion.
