Well, at worst a second set tie-break for Felix. Being down 4-2 earlier in this set, that's not bad.

Some luck for Felix that set but hopefully gives him good confidence in the third

Wow. Really showing more maturity than we've seen from him almost ever(?) in that tiebreak... down set point and on second serve and he guts it out.

This isn't over, of course, but pretty exciting... first time ever to have two Canadians in the quarters of a major? I dared not hope.

12 (!!!) double faults in two sets, was für ein betrug.

Interesting how he's done a few of the 130+mph second serves mixed in with some 80mph snoozers. Living dangerously and doesn't seem to be paying off yet.

The over/under for DFs for Zverev was 6.5, so as far as easy money goes...

Oof. I can't believe Zverev's getting up after that. That looked pretty brutal.

EDIT: Well apparently hyperextending his leg somehow fixed his serve.

One of his best service games after taking that nasty spill.

I'm also having Karatsev flashbacks to the Aussie Open earlier this year.
