Murray looked amazing against Tsonga. 14 points in a row to finish at the end. 9th win in a row in Miami.

Creeping back towards his best. Novak next for him in two hours - should be some game

I was happy with his performance actually. Should have won the 1st set. Stood toe to toe with him and looked great, specially 1st set. Things are looking up. Getting beat by Novak is hardly unheard of! Andy is one of only 3 players who beat him regularly. Their matches are always close.

But cheers for your insightful and knowledgeable post.

Semi Finals:

Djokovic vs Nishikori

Nadal vs Berdych

One would think though that either Nadal or Djoker are going to take this out, even if there is 1 upset, ensuring that the Big 4's dominance of Masters and Majors lasts just that wee bit longer.

Djokovic into final due to 2nd walkover of the tournament, which has most non-Djoker fans riled:

Berdych is up against it with Nadal, whom he has not beaten in 8 years, but still could pull an upset.

And now Nadal is into the final with a walkover as well!
At least both should be that extra bit fresh for the final, the 40th meeting between Rafa and Djoker.

Looking forward to it, Miami always has a slam feel to it.

Who has the slightest advantage, Nadal or Djokovic?

Probably slightly Djokovic, it is still a hard court, albeit a slow one - which favours Nadal - but low bounce which favours Djoker.
Conditions are warm and humid, balls are heavier, so probably also slightly in the Jokers favour.
Both are in good form, but you can see the real focus is for the clay season ahead, and lead up to RG.
