The mark of a great player. How often do the big 3 win matches they really shouldn't because they step up when it counts? This kid is going to be top 10 before we know it.

Wow, Felix wriggles off the hook once again. Huge hold of serve.

5-0 against the Tsitsipas now. Felix eats Greek Yogurt for breakfast.

He really seems to be in the head of Stefanos. How about that backhand down the line on the second last point of the match, that was Djoker-esque.

That's all well and good about Felix but did you see Goffin beat Zverev to move into the semi finals at Halle?

He's played Dimitrov, Kyrgios, and Tsitsipas in the last 24 hours and hasn't dropped serve once. And this is with about 20 double faults combined. He's already turning into a machine.

He's definitely going to make some noise at Wimbledon this year the way he's going now. The serve can still be a bit of a journey, but his returning is right there with the top 5 on tour now. Will be interesting to see where he's seeded in a few days.
Both he and Raonic could have a real chance to go deep.

According to this site Felix is currently 20th seed at Wimbledon (well 19th since Delpo will not play). Kevin Anderson has also locked up the 4th seed now.

Cool site. I think they still take this weeks events into consideration, so both Canadians will move up a few spots before the open starts.

Milos takes the opening set 6-4 over Feliciano Lopez breaking Lopez in the 10th game.

The results aren't showing in the second set, but Milos is still returning quite well for the match. If he sticks to it, he should get his opportunities to get this second set to a tie-break.

I'm a little surprised Raonic played this tournament given his late withdrawl last week. Would be nice to see Milos-Felix actually happen.

One game away as Lopez is serving at 4-5 in this third set. Let's go Milos!

Third set tie-breaker is needed to decide the victor.
Edit: Rats, Lopez takes it 7-5 in the tie-breaker.

Too bad. Milos really let that match get away from himself with a few poor approaches. Nonetheless, the way Felix is going, I don't think either Lopez or Raonic stand much of a chance.
