    Murray can play tennis to a high level and roll back the years but he can't do it tomorrow or the next day. Let's enjoy this while we can.

    Andy Murray stops, raises his racquet and acknowledges the standing ovation.

    There's some tears in his eyes, and in mum Judy's. If this is it, then it's been an almighty match to go out on.

    You have to say, Roberto Bautista Agut deserves a huge dollop of credit - even from the staunchest Murray fans - if he wins this.

    How he has managed to turn the tide in this set, in really tough circumstances, is incredible.

    Murray looks tired, in pain and uncomfortable.

    I think we all are going to need a lie down after this.

    A couple of whippy forehands from Roberto Bautista Agut miss their mark, before Murray bunts a forehand of his own long.

    A very swift love hold from Roberto Bautista Agut, backing up his break.

    Has Murray got anything left in the tank? This has been the most astonishing match.

    Sport is brutal. From 30-0 ahead on Bautista Agut's serve to losing his own within the time it takes to cook a frozen microwave meal.

    I would like to tell you what Andy Murray is muttering to himself under his breath, but I don't think my boss would be too happy.

    Here's Roberto Bautista Agut to serve.
