*Andy Murray 6-3 5-3 John Millman
Millman was agonisingly close there as he rushes to meet a Murray forehand and sends it back across his opponent with a lovely back-hand. It's just called out. He pauses to challenge it but thinks better of it and readies himself for the second point. Murray pulls away to 30-0 but the Aussies claws a point back with an impressive drop shot. After a fault on the first serve, Murray sends an incredible swerving second point down the T to make it 40-15 before sealing the deal with a bullet of a forehand.
