Leylah played a solid and smart match, and Cornet just looked tired and off her game- far too many errors and double faults. Couldn't work that Cornet Magic today.

Sebov is staying right with Garcia thus far - 3 - 3, 1st set.
Garcia just dumped a first serve into the bottom of the net.
This one looks quite interesting...

Mugsy served for the second set. Played a horrendous service game, and a bad second set tiebreaker.

Shocker, I know. :gorgeous:
Thanks. I'm still watching Rublev vs Thiem.

Commentators were suggesting a cramp?

Mugsy loses 6-1 in the third. I truly could have lived without Mertens, after every winner or sad little Mugsy error, shrieking and genuflecting like she had just won the damned tournament.

Garbi out 6-1 in the 3rd.
I have said it before. You can't get in tennis shape by training off court. And you can't get in Slam shape without playing at least a little before the Slam. She has been off too long.

Folks on Tennis Twitter agree with you.

They just closed the roof for the Wang Xiyu vs KaPlis match on MCO arena. I'm not sure why.

LiveScores says that the Goffin/Lokoli match is cancelled and that Lokoli is now slated to play Mmoh. So, it looks like Goffin has withdrawn.
