There you go, Denis, use that grizzled tour veteran know-how! Show that upstart rookie how it's done. Young kids like him have to pay their dues, after all.

Gotta say, didn't see him winning five straight games there. Watch Felix bagel him in the second now.

If anyone's going to the Calgary National Bank Challenger in October, Daniel Nestor will be there the Friday. He's been named the honourary director and will have a special ceremony for him.

Yeah I can't see either of these young men getting past this round serving like this. Or spraying errors like they are. Truth be told this is a pretty disappointing match so far.

Yeah, if you'd told me beforehand that there would be a bunch of momentum shifts and comebacks it'd sound like we were in for an exciting match. It's not so great when those shifts only happen because they're constantly screwing up.

Always tough playing your friends, especially a good friend. So maybe Felix wins this set and it opens up a bit (hopefully). Underlying numbers are really ugly for this match though.

Forget the quality of the match, the crappy camera quality is going to give me a seizure.

Not the camera work - it's jerky on my screen.

Also, lol @ those two points.

Shapovalov hits a shot called in, out by a millimetre. Next rally, called out, in by a millimetre.

FAA calls for the trainer down 0-2 in the third. The trainer has a stethoscope out...

Edit: almost looks like heat stroke might be a worry.

Tough one for Felix. In other news, Vasek is into round 2.

Shapovalov to Felix: ‘I told him we’re going to be back here. We’re going to play in the finals. We’ll have so many of these’

That was rough to watch, reminded me of Serena vs Venus. You can tell they are great friends and that wasn't an easy match.
