It was nip-and-tuck from start to finish, and was anybody's set until Murdock took the decisive point after Griffin had needed but one point to win on four different occasions. Murdock seemed to be resting up in the fourth set, while Griffin worked as hard as ever. The result was a 6-0 set for Griffin. Both were very tired for the final set, and Murdock lasted long enough to win.
