Oh boy. Poor Caty McNally. I don’t think she has ever played against someone who can overpower her like Serena.

For a 17 year old facing her first top 20 player, tough one to start with.

Hope she settles in to a groove and shows well

She's holding serve 3-3. Already won more games than Maria.

Yeah. She has done very well on her own serves, and fought back on a handful of Serena’s.

First break point here

It’s funny, Serena’s first couple of services you could see Caty had to adjust to the pace.

She sure has done so, to this point!

Caty fights off 3 break points. Serena very frustrated. Will she pull the chute?

Holy crap, this kid looks to be pretty mentally tough.

Breaks Serena and comes back from 0-40 to put it away

What a stat. Serena’s first set lost in the US Open second round - 18 straight set wins prior to this.

Tiafoe has leveled the match at one set each and Zverev has called for the trainer.

Zverev's super power is making all his grand slam matches go to 5 sets....

Geez, what a horrible service game from Zverev, it was so bad that I could have "earned" the break.

They flashed the graphic earlier, Zverev is 12-6 in five set matches while Tiafoe is 1-7. Based on that 4th set, Frances should take this match, but it really depends on which Zverev will show up.

Edit: Zverev up an early break in set 5.
