Denis closes it out in style breaking Berdych to win 6-4 6-3. That's the best tennis I've seen from Shapo since probably last year at Madrid on the clay.
Edit: 33 winners from Denis to only 9 winners from Berdych
That is a huge win for Denis. Berdych is easily off to one of the best starts of the season and playing way above his current ranking.
Most impressive is how clean of a service game he displayed. If this is a sign of things to come, we may have finally witnessed a breakthrough on that front.

Woot!! What a comeback by Schnur, down 2-5 in the third set, he forces the tie-breaker and wins it. Huge win.
Yep, and he also had to work very, very hard to hold his serve at 5-6 to get into the breaker first trailing 0-30 and then 15-40.
Serious guts and mental fortitude shown by him to complete that comeback from first being down 2-5 and then on his last rights on his final service game.

At 3-3 in set 2, Brayden had Johnson at love-40 and couldn't get the break. Then Brayden was broken at 4-5 to lose the second set and quickly went down love-3 in the third set and I thought he was done like dinner. As you say Karl, he dug down deep, fought hard, and willed his way to victory.
