[MargaretMcAleer]

I feel we are headed for a 1st set t/break both players finding their spots with their serves, both players settling to this match

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

I’m watching now. Looks like they’re heading to a TB?

Welcome , yep agree we are headed for a TB

Paul is very quick around the court

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Great volley from Tommy Paul off to a TB

 

[Moxie]

TB it is. Here we go.

 

[tented]

Great point to get to TB!

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Just realized Novak hasnt had a day match yet at the AO

 

[tented]

6-6 on the changeover.

 

[tented]

Paul wins the 1st set in the TB.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Well done Tommy held your nerve in crucial moments, in the TB played the big points better

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Ben serves a 220 km/h lol! and gets love from the net cord

Just realized Novak hasnt had a day match yet at the AO

And he won't get one at this late stage. It's the same thing Andy used to complain about all the time w/ Fedal getting all the night matches at Aus

7pm

I thought at least he might get one day match,

7.00 pm local time, though sometimes it dosent start till 8pm,

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

It is a shame Alcaraz isnt here, he is missed in this tournament

 

[Moxie]

Big hold for Shelton, though he's looking less convincing.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Does Ben Shelton realize how much 'untapped talent' he has, I hope he reaches his full potential
