Denis looking great and dialed in as he's up a double break in the opening set.

Aussies really banking on De Mineur.

Wow, I think Denis only lost 4 points on his serve. He's playing great!

Thus far today, we are seeing that Denis that made the finals in Seoul and Vienna. Much more patient and controlled aggression.

Watched the quarters and semis on tape, but here live for the finals! Great to see Shapo is able to play, and he has been dominant so far - he deserves a victory after a couple tough matches in the prior rounds.

That's the key - Even at 80% of his hitting power, his shots are a handful for any opponent.

Yikes, Denis reverting to trying to hit winners five feet behind the baseline. Needs to hold here to keep Kokkinakis at bay.

He also plating a challenger player. Kokkinakis is awful.

He's had a lot of injury woes throughout his career. He's had some big wins though (took out Fed in Miami in 2018).

Shapo just needs to stick to the cross-court exchanges and wait for a short ball. I find he gets himself in trouble when he tries to re-direct shots.

lol - That's why it's good to be up a double break for games like the previous one.
