Ben Shelton taking out Tommy Paul is a surprise to me.

Wozniacki out.

I missed it but I guess Coco got tired of Brad Gilbert’s constant advice and finally told him to stop talking during her match.

Dominic Thiem turns 30 years old today. Just hasn't been the same player since that wrist injury. One thing for sure is that he's going to keep trying to find that old form.

Iga vs. Penko coming up - The Latvian has a 3-0 H2H record versus Iga.

Iga breaks right back - Penko needs to serve well because that second serve of hers is a beachball.

Very little margin of error from Penko and at the moment, her radar is off.

I think Jelena "Squeaky Shoes" Ostapenko is getting Iga flustered in set 2.

This is like Djokovic vs stanimal. Djokotek in peak retrieval mode... but on the other side it's the Alonimal.

Oh man, Penko breaks to start set 3.

Edit: Consolidates the break. Iga with some uncharacteristic service return misses.

It's power off both wings and the ability to create crazy angles from the middle of the court that bothers iga.

Also, penko giving off attitude that she has a 3 - 0 record against iga.

Heavy flat hitting that takes away time. I think it was Mary Joe that said the only player left in the tourney that hits harder than Penko is Madison Keys, I don't know about that watching Penko tonight.

Djokovic and Iga both have this mental block of going into retrieval mode and hoping for a mistake from Jelena and Stanimal. But Jelena and Stanimal are able to maintain this high a level for longer against Iga and Djokovic.

#1 ranking is on the line for Iga tonight as well. She loses and Sabalenka takes over top spot after the US Open.

Penko is a service hold away from sending the bakery master a bagel.

Edit: No bagel
