As nice of a story Hsieh is. Shes not beating one of these two. This is absolute power tennis.

I see a lot of Muguruza in Leylah. Not a big serve, but quite powerful ground strokes and she has excellent court coverage.

Meanwhile, Felix closes out the first serve with a hold to love taking it 6-3

Felix up a break early in set 2. Karatsev is looking more like a Fugazi.

Felix up two sets to love as he wins set 2 6-1. Just playing smart tennis, not going for too much and letting Karatsev beat himself with unforced errors.

First blemish as Karatsev breaks Felix and is serving at 3-2 in set 3.

We need a 4th set as Felix went off the boil late in set 3.

Uh oh Felix is broken again. Karatsev has raised his level, but Felix has really cooled off.

Again, why is Felix re-directing the ball down the line and missing badly when he's winning these rallies hitting cross-court shots? Just stick with the high percentage play.

5th set needed. At least Felix gets to start the set on his serve.

Big trouble now as Felix is broken and he looks like the qualifier out there now.
