Humbert has won his first-set breaker against the qualifier, Gigante – this is a big day for him etc etc –I’ve now given Don McRae’s Rublev interview a proper read and you should too.while Pouille and Zverev are away with a hold apiece, the latter’s rig catching Tim Henman’s attention. Pic to follow as soon as I have it.
Credit to Kartal for how she fought – and, making her debut in this competition whole playing her first match of the season, circumstances were not in her favour. But Bouzas Maneiro is a proper player and found what she needed to move on. Next for her it’s Sabalenka or Stephens.but down 5-6 in the second-set breaker, now faces a second match point…
Sabalenka serves out to 30 and, well though Stephens rebounded from going down 0-4, she’s now down 3-6 As for Sabalenka, I imagine she lost a little focus after finding the start so easy and concurrently Stephens, the first set apparently gone, was able to relax into things under no pressure.
