Well shocked Casper hasn’t had any aces. It looks like he fluctuates between returning well and being too complacent:

Good point, actually. I'd say he's still looking the sturdier. Alcaraz needs his firepower, but it's been shaky so far.

Plus the full arm going to sleep holding the baby in the other one, Front? That's dedication.

I am going to say that you sense some tired from Alcaraz. Missing more than he would.

I feel like winning this set is more important for Casper if he is to win this than Alcaraz. I feel Alcaraz can go on a blitz more than Ruud can at any moment.

But Alcaraz still with the fearlessness of youth.

Good hold by Alcaraz, to put some doubt in Ruud's mind? Charlie needs to get the crowd back on his side. He needs some juice.
