Bweh has the H2H 7-1 over Felix, but the majority of the matches have been tight affairs. I think the weapons both guys have (Serve and forehand) cancel each other out, if Felix can continue to hit the backhand well, I like his chances.

Sam is right, those two 15-40 set points missed is what is holding FAA back.

I think it's Jim Courier today and pretty quick with the criticism, but pretty quiet when Felix stepped up with some great shots. I'm not saying Courier is wrong, but how about heaping some praise on FAA when it's warranted?

That's a huge hold by Felix to start set 2.

Jim was right on the mark just now though, Felix had to follow that lob into the net.

Edit: That was a missed opportunity, Rublev is a little wobbly, Felix could have broken in that game.

Follows up the break with some emphatic serving - I'll say it again, the backhand today has been very good and is setting up the forehand nicely.
