That's two potential body shots that Medvedev has tried and both clipped the tape. Felix looked fired up on that last one.

Big time tennis from Felix. He's giving it a good run. If he can just get a break here it feels like this match could open right up for him.

Very happy to see that, Felix played unbelievable in that game and deserved the break. Against any other player besides Novak that would have been easier.

There it is! That game was full of highly intelligent tennis from FAA. Backing up this break is a must.

Well, that was a stress free hold to consolidate the break.

Consolidate at love... wow. This is what happens if you just hang in there and keep your level up, you get your opportunities. Of course, doing it for four or five sets is the hard part, but one step at a time.

The key is taking Medvedev out of his comfort zone - which he's done now. You see it (occasionally) with Djokovic as well. Once they aren't infront running with a match, they become very unbalanced.

I mean Medvedev is doing absolutely everything in this game to make it hard on Felix to serve it out. Unreal return game.

Serving for set, and was broken. Come on Felix!

Nothing for free.
This quality of Medvedev might actually have a shot at Djoker. Like, not a good shot, but an outside chance. Maybe.

Not to be too negative, but I suspect that's the match right there.

I think it's going to a tiebreak, so the match will really be decided there if Felix loses that.

Let's see if Felix can regroup here. Holding serve is key right now

You have to tip your cap to Medvedev for saving the set with that break. Felix did not play poorly.
If he can reset this set is still wide open but right now he just looks gassed.

Ok, never mind, you were right... our Canadian boys just don't have Leylah's mental.

Yeah no shock he's gonna completely fall apart, he played so well to get to one point from a set all, tough to expect him to just brush that off.

11. Denis is 12. A win would have got him to 9.
