It's been particularly impressive because it's not like she's had the chance to take advantage of any lengthy drop in quality from her opponent. The Russian has looked a bit frustrated the last couple of games but it hasn't translated into any rough stretches for her yet, so effectively Leylah is just hanging in with a player who is totally outhitting her for over 2 hours. Very gutsy.
She has made a few more errors into the net in this set though, hope that cleans up.
