Kenin is giving Halep all she can handle (currently in the 3rd set).

It's trunk slamming time for Shapo now, to quote Brad Gilbert.

Down 15-40 in that game and Denis responds with some trunk slamming  to hold serve.

Kenin is up a break serving at 4-2 in the 3rd set against Halep.
Edit: Halep breaks right back.

Thiem is out as he retires in the 3rd set (he has lost the first two sets 7-5 6-4 and was trailing love-2 when he pulled the chute). Aussie wildcard Alexei Popyrin moves on to the 3rd round.

Halep is scrappy. Broke, won, and is up 5-4 serving for the match

Yup, Halep survives and gets Venus in the next round. Kenin played great, just ran out of steam at the end.

She doesn’t have an easy path, that’s for sure!
Venus was surgical in her third set, and Halep apparently has a ham string that is bugging her

Well, I'm off to bed, Genie is down two breaks in the first set to Serena, this could get ugly .

Yeah, she has now been broken all 3 times she served.
* Update: 4
Some flashes here and there, but yikes.

She held serve!
Man, Serena is making her cover a lot of court, she worked for that game

The thing is that Genie is playing well.
She's battling, staying aggressive, making Serena move. I actually think Genie is playing better today than she did in her dominant first round match.
But ...
Serena is on fire today. A completely different level.
