The rally of the season happened at 1hr 30mins into the stream. Anyone who didn't see it should make the effort to watch it.

 Thanks for sharing this - loved his reaction too. 

Well done to Dan - held serve all the way after loosing game 3 - I think thats 15 holds in a row. It was a really interesting match tactically  - I wondered to start with whether Dan was just giving his topspin backhand a bit more of a go because he felt he might as well when two breaks down but I wonder whether he also was forced into it - Shapovalov really was hitting some great attacking shots of the nothing balls Dan did give him - reminded me of Dan's struggles to handle Kyle's power in their recent final except the Canadian was doing it with the other hand off both wings and hitting some great angles too. Really looking forward to seeing more of him in the future - lovely attacking style and nice to see the one hander and confidence and skill coming to net. Canada looking a decent shout for the Davis Cup in the next 10 years if he and Felix A A can build on some recent showings and get alongside Raonic and Posposil.

Evo almost top 50 in the race if he wins the final. Dan's last 12 matches: four wins then four losses now four wins again. I fancy him to make it 5 in a row tomorrow though.

I'm not sure who will win, but having seen Ed quite a few times, I think this is about the best I have seen him play.
He is so strong on his serve and his returning is impressive.

Very impressed with the crowds for the singles - looked a full house yesterday and today, but lots disappeared for the doubles.

Dan and Lloyd were very unlucky. They played very well as a team and I thought they were the better pair.
