Pretty horrible game here from Baker, having got to 40-0 he then served 3 DFs in a row! Currently deuce having saved a set point

Digs his way out of that game with Ace number 3 to at least force the Ukranian to serve out the set 4-5*

Set goes the way of Dolgopolov 6-4, serving 6 aces and a 72% first serve strike rate so pretty impressive on serve with Jamie managing just 5 points against the serve. He isn't being completely outclassed here though, needs to keep his own first serve percentage up (currently a very respectable 64%) and hope Dolgopolov has a dip

Massive hold from Jamie, saving 2 BPs in that game. 4-6, 4-1*

Couple of aces and a quick hold to 15 for Dolgo. 4-6, *4-2

Jamie returns the favour and holds to 15 himself. 4-6, 5-2*
