Welp, Felix was up 4-2 in the second set tie-break and drops five straight points. There goes the tie-break streak.

Whew, that was a shaky service hold by Felix, but he survived. Both guys feeling the pressure as they have squandered break point chances with pretty poor shots.

Also, can this color guy in the Felix match stop talking for two seconds? Man, it's irritating.

Okay, shaky but Felix takes set 3 in yup you guessed it a tie-break. It's a shame he has to play another set because he should be conducting the post-match interview right now.

Who knew the dampener rule?

I picked up on that way before the announcers haha. Hate when I have to explain things to the commentators on tv.

That was a pretty good pickup by the umpire who didn't have the benefit of video replay.

It’s a silly rule in that instance but makes sense why it exists, and you have to call the rules to the letter.

I did not know the dampener rule (but it does make sense) and I didn't know it was called "invasion" lol

A break by ADF and a break right back by Felix. Felix also with 75 unforced errors at this point in set 4 which is a big number.

The amount of the tiebreakers in the past three Shapo/Felix matches is pretty crazy. Worst part is that most of those sets they had in hand and they allowed their opponents back in. Hope they can reduce the mistakes in their coming matches.
