Felix breaks to go up 6-5 on a double fault on his second break point of the match. Medvedev has seen zero break points so far.

Felix attempts to serve the first set out.

Medvedev breaks back at 15-40 and we're off to a first set tie break

[jg13]

Felix wins the first set in a tie break 7-4. Medvedev double faulted twice in the tie break. Crowd is still VERY pro Felix AA.

Its been an incredible set and would recommend others to rewatch the full match up to this point.

[Kidder]

Well alrighty then....

Not an orthodox way to close out the set. But we’ll take it!

[jg13]

Felix breaks early in the second set! Up 2-0 after 4 deuces on Medvedevs serve. Crowd is still super Felix and appears to be bothering Medvedev a little bit.

[jg13]

Sorry I should add the crowd isn't being disrespectful at all. Just cheering when its appropriate all support for Felix none for Daniil

[Kidder]

Who doesn’t love Felix!

He’s got Medvedev running away in fear!

[jg13]

Felix is up 5-2 in the second set up 1 set to love.

Incredible performance and to be honest hasn't looked like hes spent a ton of energy thus far.

[jg13]

holy jesus felix auger aliassime is up 2 sets to love against Daniil Medvedev

[Kidder]

Keep the pedal down. You can see the confidence just oozing out. Great stuff.

[Kidder]

Uhoh. Medvedev takes the 3rd set tiebreak. Going to a 4th.

UE creeping up for Felix and Daniel has found some confidence with the return game.

Roof closed now, which announcers think helps Medvedev because the ball flies more.

[Kidder]

On serve 4-3 in the 4th. Felix ahead. Really serving well.

[Kidder]

Felix had a match point on a break chance. Can’t get it.

Gets broken next game after some deuces.

Down 6-5. This is as far as I make it. Can’t stand the tension.

[Kidder]

I lied. Finished the set. Felix battles back from 40-0 to force deuce then makes an unbelievable dig to force a sitting duck short ball with Medvedev stuck scrambling at net. Hits it at him and Medvedev volleys it back to his feet to win the point.

My legs thrashed violently. What a missed opportunity. All the momentum. Just like that, an ace and it’s 2 sets a piece.

Don’t know what I expect, but I would not be surprised to see Medvedev carry this thru. Damnit :’(

C’mon Felix

[dash_pinched]

I'm here for set 5.

[dash_pinched]

Thanks for all the updates jg13 and Kidder.

[transplant99]

Literally just tuned in myself....no idea what happens but fully expect to see him lose 7-6 or something.

Go Felix Go!!

[dash_pinched]

Holy cow, what a backhand down the line by Felix!
