All right, we're halfway to a Felix - Kyrgios quarter-final. Come on Nick, this is no time to let us down.

I'm curious how Basilashvili is having a good season if how he served today was any indication. Speaks to how well he's been off the ground that even at 39% first serve he was still just a few points away from winning the match. But Felix stepped up in the big points today.

It's also great to see that the off-season procedure that Felix had to address his tachycardia definitely appears to have been an overwhelming success. Temps in Miami are close to 30 degrees and humidity has been pretty high, yet Felix seems to be dealing with the conditions with no issues thus far.

Coric and Kyrgios need a third and deciding set.

Edit: Felix will be taking on Borna Coric next as the Croat sends Kyrgios packing 4-6 6-3 6-2

Edit #2: More audacity from Nick...

I think the book is out there on Felix already being one of the better returners on tour. Players are starting to realize they have to hit their best serves, all the time and anyone with a marginal serve to begin with probably feels the heat.

Edit: He's only got 15 matches on the books this year, but his return figures are comparable with top 10 returners on tour. Once that second serve becomes a little more efficient the sky will be the limit for this kid.

The rain has returned to Miami which will certainly be pushing back the start time of the Shapo - Greek Yogourt match.
