Oliver & Nicholas have been replaced by ALTs, so it seems reasonable to assume that the former's poor showing in the match against Nicod was the result of an injury of some kind.

Gill is a set down 7-5 before rain hit. Doesnt look like theyre back on today.

seagull · Hall of fame

Felix has had 6 match points so far and still can't get over the line. This will hurt if he loses from here.

Felix had three match points on Olivieri's service in the 12th game of the decider & several more in the tie-break. hmm

I counted 7 in total

Three of which were not really on his racket

And four of which were 50:50 at best, if not his points for the asking

He was by far the better player overall, in the last 20 mins

Utterly ridiculous that he lost

Hmm, if he was by far the better player he seemed to have a fair issue about winning enough of these point things confuse

Pity.

Yes, absolutely

That's the problem with tennis - it's not winning points, it's which points you win, that really matters
