I don't know what the strategy should be, other than pray that you have a really great day and that Djoker has a really bad one. a lot of those beautiful backhand strikes are going to return and put the point at neutral again or worse.

This is the first time I'vs seen Amanda Anisimova play - Wow, pretty impressive game for only 17 years old. Hits the heck out of the ball.

Sharapova and Wozniacki are heading to a 3rd and deciding set - Come on Caroline, send that shrieking Russian packing.

Thanks to Aussie wildcard Alex Bolt, Djovokic-Shapovlov is on the day session at approx 8:30pm.

Raonic-P2H is also around 8:30pm so it should be a fun night!

Good thing Shapovalov is better than all 4 of those guys combined... He'll take at least a set off Djokovic.

Shapovalov is better than peak Raonic? Nah. I'm not saying he doesn't have a puncher's chance, mind you, particularly if Novak has a bad day.

Even with Raonic peak serving Shapovalov has a better chance of better Joker. Joker prob has the best service return in the game right now.

His return of serve kind of negates Raonic's major strength as indicated by only dropping two sets in 9 matches. Shapovalov as least can hit the ball from both sides of the court and is less of a one trick pony. That said I wouldn't be shocked if he lost in straight sets if Novak is on his game.

Upset Alerts!!!@

Hsieh up a set and a break on Osaka.

Zhang's up a set on Svitolina.

Hsieh generates no pace on the ball giving Osala nothing to hit.
