She's been playing so well this year as well (5 WTA titles in 2018), so this is a shocker...

Statistically it looks like Shapo should be winning this match easily with nothing jumping off the page as egregious.....what's going on? Just a few unlucky games?

Denis won the 3rd set on a double fault by Chardy. Some luck there!

woot! Denis wins by taking the 4th set 6-4. That's a nice win over Chardy who has been playing some fine tennis in 2018.

Raonic through in three sets, three tiebreaks, so certainly not a walk,

Huge break for Milos as Lucas Pouille loses his match so he will have to play Novak in the 3rd round.....luckily not THAT Novak

I wish I could tell you, but I needed to catch up on some sleep. The match will be re-broadcast on one of the TSN channels tonight. As for Millman, he's a very steady player, so I'm not surprised by the scoreline.

Every year around this time I'm reminded of how annoying Wimbledon is about highlights. They guard their highlights jealously, preventing anyone else from putting them up, but then do a terrible, godawful job of them, presumably intentionally. For any other event, I'd be able to get a 7-10 minute video of all the big or important points in a match, even for early rounds in 1000 tourneys. For Wimbledon, I either get two to three minutes of randomly selected points that give no indication of how a match went, followed by match point - or in some cases, get nothing at all. There appear to be no highlights available whatsoever for Shapovalov's match.

What a bunch of tools.

Novak is the dude who took out Peter Polansky in round 1, so Milos with the chance to exact some Canadian revenge.
