And early in the match she got those and just guided it into the open court. No need to even swing at it. But that's what Kerber does to you mentally, you feel like it has to be put away. So yeah... That's a disappointing missed opportunity, we'll see if Leylah can get past it.

On an unrelated note, good lord Kerber is in ridiculous shape.

Yeah. She's almost 34. Very late bloomer

Yes. Watching Canada today people will understand why tennis and soccer are the world's most intense sports.

First blood to Fernandez!

Okay so hear me out on this... is there any way we could get some of Leylah's DNA, use it to grow a clone of her brain in some sort of vat, and then implant it into Denis's head?

Yup, she’s clearly behind in these last few games.

I think probably lost in all of this is that she's still having a ton of difficulty making her first serve in this set (the ace notwithstanding), but she's managed to figure out a way to get a usable 2nd serve in each time.
