Well done by Paul.

(But I’m disappointed in Alcaraz. Before this match even began, I thought the Spaniard would win it easily.)

Must be something in the water at Montreal, Sinner who defeated Alcaraz in Umag has lost the 1st set to Mannarino 62 and 4 all 2nd set Sinner won 2nd set 64...he will have to take the scenic route if he wants to win the match
Sinner wins the match 26 64 62 after a slow start.

Nick K v Medvedev just started, interesting match up, I expect Meddy will expose Nick K lack of movement in this match up, though Nick K usually steps up when he plays a top seed in a match

Nick may play better because he respects Daniil and feels that he is going to really be challenged.

Nick K too many UFE in the t/break, pushing his shots when not needed
Medvedev 76 (2) 1st set.

Annacone was spot on again saying that Nick feels comfortable coming in vs Daniil because he has soft hands at the net and just doesnt Stick the volley like most traditional volleyers. What happen, the very next point Nick picks of a dtl fh by Daniil and makes a very delicate cc bh volley. PA is the best by far.

Nick gets the early break in the 3rd set with a bhand pass winner, I thought he was looking tired to me, lets see if he can consolidate the break

One of the reasons Nick has been using the serve volley combo he dosent want to get into long rallies with Medvedev

Nick consolidates his serve and leads 4-2 final set.
Meddy serve has let him down at times with DFs so far in this match

Kyrgios up the break and threatening to get the e-surance one.

A bit of luck from the net, and Nick is up 5-2 and serving for it!

What a rally and Nick breaks again, Meddy shot found the net
Nick will serve for the match 5-2
