Genie's aggressiveness is great early on in this match. I'm liking her ability to rebound after an unforced error; she's still going for those shots, rather than shying away with something safe.

Bouchard has no chance. She has no answer for Vandeweghe's serve and she is being totally outpsyched.

I hope Genie can wipe the smirk off CoCo's face in the second set.

It's women's tennis, I hate use the word guarantee, but Coco will lose this set. It's just the way it is. Probably with many double faults.

Bouchard just about holds her serve when 40 - 0 up.

Don't see a way back

This is why we get so shocked when an Istomin happens. I was on my way to bed last night with Girly after Novak won the third set, I just happened to brush my teeth and that took long enough for Istomin to break right away in the fourth, so I kept watching. Sport is kind of predictable because it's so mental, especially women's tennis.

That was a stressful game, but Genie holds and leads 4-1 in the 2nd. That could have been a match saver.

Pretty fast match so far, not many extended rallies.

There's only been two service games where either had a chance to break. Sounds more like Karlovic-Isner than women's tennis. So might be a break filled third set, or not.
