I mean, Donskoy should have won that point on three different occasions, incredible defense from Felix.

So, I can't be the only one hoping Andy Murray sends Oikos packing later today, right? I realize the chances are quite slim.

Sloane Stephens wins it in a 3rd set tiebreak. It's crazy that both are unseeded. This was the final 4 years ago.

The winner of the FAA - Donskoy match will play Bernabe Zapata Miralles (BZM from this point onwards) who eliminated Feli Lopez in five sets.

Okay Felix, Donskoy is pissed because he was in prime position to force a break point and failed, time to pounce.
Edit: No bueno. Felix needs to hold to stay in set 4.

Felix is playing like he can't miss. He clearly can. He's missing a lot and he's still trying to murder every ball.

Andrey Rublev has eliminated Dr. Ivo Karlovic in straight sets and thus it will be the last time we see Dr. Ivo at the US Open. Hats off to a fine career!

Well, let's hope this tie-break goes the same way as the first two.

What an absurd shot by Donskoy to save match point. I know he's been tearing the cover off it for a while now but on match point, good lord.

What a backhand down the line by Felix to save a set point.

Come on Andy, take this second set tie-break.
Edit: Oh no, Andy was up 6-4 and loses the tie-break 9-7 (bad double-fault at 7-7)
