Fritz has apparently hurt his ankle again and is getting a visit from the trainer.

More late night trivia.

This is the first time since the 2002 AO that the top 2 seeds have lost prior to the 3rd round in a major. Can you name them?

He was done by then. 90s player.

Federer was coming up, he was the 11th seed. Roddick was 13.

Thats a tough first set loss. Was up 5-4 in the tiebreak and lost both points on her serve and lost 7-5 on an ace

Wow, Garcia roars back from 5-2 down in the tie-break and wins five straight points to take the opening set.

So naturally Leylah wins four consecutive points to open set 2. Could have use that about 5 minutes ago.

Now would be a great time for Leylah to break serve.

Edit: Leylah did have a break/set point, but Garcia has been serving clutch all match.

Instead Garcia breaks and is serving for the match at 6-5 in set 2.

Well, poop. Fine effort from Leylah, but Garcia was better on the big points and that was the difference today.

The Garcia serve was too much for Leylah tonight. All eyes on FAA and Shapo for Canadian Tennis. Both have a great chance at going far
