Murray vs Del Potro

Discuss your pick between these two.

Even though i cannot stand to watch the mutant or see him win, i think he will beat del po in straight sets. 6-3, 7-6

The h2h favours Murray and he has won both of their previous two matches on hard court. Those were tight matches though so I expect another close one between these two.
I don't like Murray so going for Del Potro, and if he keeps up his level of play like he did against Nadal and against Roddick, then he's got a big chance. The guy has too much game to not have a TMS title already.

I went for Del Potro, because I do not care much for Murray. Hehe.

Del Potro. 6-0 6-0. Hahe. Afterwards, Murray has car accident and looses his only ball left.

you know this mutant thing is getting a bit tired. But Murray in straight sets looks good to me.

Del Potro has been playing great and looks like he may be ready to push on to the next level but I don't think he will have enough left to beat Andy.

If i were Del Potro, i'd walk off the court the first time the Mutant will scream out loud " Come on!" on an error from his opponent. This is very unfair and tells much about this Mutant's character. :roll:

The Argentine has been netting a lot of mid court backhands, he needs to dominate at all costs, like he was doing towards the end of the Roddick match.

DelPotro holds from 15-40 down to level at 3-3, he is nowhere near his best but he is staying close for now.

Murray just looks he is swinging his arme out there, not even wanting to hit with a little bit of pace. Truly boring to watch

Mediocre first ser all round but the Argentine takes it. Murray still the favourite for me though.
