Fed with another break in set 2 and he takes it by a 6-2 score. Kyrgios needs to get his mind back into this match or Roger will roll to victory.

Fed takes the match winning the third set in a tie-breaker (7-5 was the tie-breaker score). Milos vs. Roger in the Stuttgart final on Sunday.

More good news as Felix is in the ATP Challenger final in Lyon following a 6-2 7-6 win earlier today. Here's hoping he can make it back-to-back titles in Lyon.

Tomorrow we could have two Canadian champions how exciting! I'm not sure who Felix is playing but it's going to be very tough for Milo's to knock off Fed.

Felix was facing his opponent serving for the match down 4-5 in the second, the broke to win three straight games to force a third set. Great fighting.

Encouraging signs by Milo's , I think he will have a deep run at Wimbledon.
Busy week coming up as Fed goes for his own La Decima as he tries to win Halle for a 10th time.
Murray makes his return at Queen's but unfortunately he plays Krygrios in the first round.
Djokovic and Wawrinka have also teamed up at Queen's and are doubles partners in hopes of getting their game back to where it was.

Both Denis and Milos are playing the Queen's Club (Fever-Tree) tourney - Denis will face Gilles Muller while Milos takes on Yuki Bhambri.

Dennis loses his first match again against Muller, hopefully some more practice time on the grass will pay off at Wimbledon. We might have to face facts that he is nothing more than a clay court specialist

Muller is a crafty veteran and two sets lost via tie-breakers indicates a very close match. Well played with the clay court specialist haha.

A lot of variables in this match that indicate a decent performance by Shapo. Muller is also a lefty who is playing on his best surface as a very hard hitter, often serve and volleying. Denis had 14 aces to go along with only 2 doubles and beat up the Muller second serve to the tune of 42% points won. Problem was that he won only 4% of 1st serve return games which easily was the reason he lost. This is also the first time he's played a true grass player like this, on grass.
He'll learn from this and be much better for it going into Wimbledon.
