Judging by the stats, Monroe's serve has been working a lot better since I went away too ... but even so, Jamie looked by far the better player, it's weird that he's in such trouble here.

Too many dinks and slices allowed Monroe to come into the net - Jamie never really pinned him at the back of the court. He had the power and consistency to beat him but his tactics didn't seem too clever.
The streaming is really excellent, and all may not be lost because LLs for Challengers go in ranking order of the fqr losers. Jamie is the no. 2 seed and the no. 1 seed went out in qr1, so if there's a LL place going, Jamie will be the first in line.
