Just terrible, but unfortunately not surprising. Similar hate filled messages drove Rebecca Marino from the game.

Botic is up a set on Schwartzman.

Edit: Make it two sets to love for Botic. This guy is on a heater.

Svitolina eliminates Halep 6-3 6-3 and takes on the winner of Leylah vs. Kerber.

Schwartzman is digging deep trying to stay in this match.

Schwartzman and Botic are going five which means Leylah and Kerber are at least another hour away.

Edit: Botic does it winning 6-3 6-4 5-7 5-7 6-1

He has to be running on fumes, to go through three rounds of qualifying and now he's played two four set and two five sets matches. Medvedev will likely roll in straight sets.

Well, if the first two games are any indication, this could be pretty fun.

She could just as easily have won the previous Kerber service game, too. Kerber hit a line at 0-30, followed by a near-winner that was about 6 inches out on the next return, followed by an unreturnable shot that narrowly missed the baseline from Leylah. This set could be over.
