Went over on his ankle when sliding in - pretty nasty when you see it on the replay. They stopped play to get the ankle/foot heavily taped.

Up until that point Murray had always been on top but Berrer was spirited and hanging in. There were a lot of lengthy rallies - it was a fun match to watch.

After that, it was probably the classic case of the injured player going for their shots more and the person at the other end becoming less certain/focused. As a result, the points became much shorter.

BBC Scotland reporter said that Berrer admitted to him that he deliberately didn't hit many drop shots after the injury (prior to that he was using them quite a lot, with a fair amount of success). I don't think Murray would have reciprocated had the situation been reversed!
Was a much better performance by Murray than in the first 2 rounds.
Simon knows they only would have increased!
