* Murray 2-2 Gulbis
Gulbis hits ace number three as he levels things up and not a hint of nerves yet from the Latvian. Meanwhile, Ivan Navarro has pulled off a major shock with a straight-sets win over Ivo Karlovic, and with Wawrinka losing just now that's two big names out of Murray's path to the latter stages. If he can beat Gulbis, that is...

Murray 2-1 Gulbis *
Murray wallops down ace number four as he holds to love and this is all a bit Sampras-Ivanisevic. I can't keep up.

* Murray 1-1 Gulbis
Gulbis races through a highly impressive love hold.

Murray 1-0 Gulbis *
Murray opens with a solid service game, although Gulbis gives a little glimpse of his power with one raking forehand that he backs up with a deft volley. Murray outdoes him with a killer drop volley to take the game. My prediction? Straight sets Murray.

0154: Gulbis and Murray knock up energetically and still look remarkably alike to my eyes. The Latvian is a big-hitter but has not been in great form recently. Where The Streets Have No Name accompanies the knock-up, I have no idea why.
0148: Gulbis and Murray stride out onto Arthur Ashe Stadium, and I'd say Murray will get a boost with the news that Wawrinka has just lost in five sets to Lapentti and Karlovic is hanging on against Navarro - the Spaniard just had a match point.
BBC Radio 5 live's David Law tweeting from Flushing Meadows:
"Tarango is on the premises. Going live on 5Live shortly: Murray v Gulbis. Pre-match meal of ribs. Pre-match nerves lingering. Let's go."
0148: "Come on muzza straight sets win please so i can get back to sleep zzzzz."

0145: And I'm back in the room.... here we go, Andy Murray v Ernests Gulbis. As you should surely know by now, Murray leads their head-to-head 3-0 and gave Gulbis a bit of a whupping at Wimbledon a matter of weeks ago. Gulbis is a year younger than Murray at 21 and generally referred to as "the talented Latvian..." although that is more to do with the impressive start to his career, and he's since slipped to 95 in the rankings. Murray, meanwhile, has jumped to number two, in case you didn't know.
