if Abuserev wins this tourney Carlos drops to #4...that's right, the guy with 2 slams in his bag will have 3 dudes ahead of him

Maybe slams should be more points, the 4 slams only make up 40% of your points.

Alcaraz was a Cincinnati finalist last year so this hurts.

His 1000 cycle is bad

Indian Wells WIN
Madrid QF
Miami QF
Shanghai R16
Paris R32
Cincinnati R32
Canada DNP
Rome DNP

Leylah is now on court taking on the young phenom Shnaider.

Edit: Leylah on fire in this opening set and zips out to a 5-love lead.

Leylah takes the opening set 6-1. Diana Shnaider started playing a lot better in the last two games of the first set though and is a very dangerous player. Great start, but Leylah needs to stay focused. Serving much better today as well.

Edit: The rain has returned, but hopefully it won't be too much of a delay.

Wow, from 4-1 down in set 2, Leylah wins five straight games to take the match 6-1 6-4. Great scrambling on defense and just some really smart tennis from Leylah today.

Felix picks the perfect time to break as he takes the opening set 7-5 and will start set 2 serving. Great point played by FAA to get that break.

That double could be costly.

I missed the entire second set, but I'm back for set 3. That was a tough hold for Felix, but he got it done.

Felix is pulling off some incredible shots in this 3rd set and he is being forced to because Draper is playing a hell of a match.

Welp, just too many double faults. Stop me if you have heard that before.

Greg Allensworth does it again - No way Draper got that volley clean on match point. What a joke.

There would be at the US Open - I guess they don't have that capability here in Cincinnati. I think Draper knows he got away with one there as well, you know as a player if you hit it into the ground. I just saw the replay, it's so obvious that he hit it into the ground.

You can tell from the trajectory of the ball that Draper hit into the ground, just a horrific miss by Allensworth.
