I read on twitter that 20% of the points in the 1st set were double faults.

Felix has saved 6 set points here in set 2 and we need a tie-break to decide things.

Yeah, but you wouldn't think that if you're listening to the announcers. He is down a break here in set 3, but he's playing some excellent tennis tonight.

I think that was the best match he's played in 2025. The backhand especially tonight was rock solid. Zverev up next, Felix can do it he can repeat tonight's performance.

Coleman Wong won again! I think he can beat Rublev.

2021 Tsitsipas is up 2 sets to love to Djokovic in the French Open final....how would his career turned out differently if he held on to win that match.

That's the thing though, the problem has always been between the ears. Well that and he refuses to cut the daddy apron strings. Of course, now his backhand sucks and his forehand isn't much better.

Tommy Paul should have closed this out in straight sets, now he's staring a 5th set right in the face.
