Mitchell again holds easily (to 15) whilst Kyle is forced over deuce - very much the pattern of the last few games after a very even second set and start to the third

Kyle 6-4 6-7(6) 6-5*

Here they go all the way - so a Mahut/Isner type final set is perfectly possible

Kyle has prioritised ITF Futures and Junior Grand Slams this year, so is vulnerable in GS draws
