QF:  Kyrian Jacquet (FRA) WR 128 defeated (2) Jacob Fearnley WR 77 by 7-6(4) 1-6 6-3  bleh

Should've won that in straight sets!  no

 Why should Fearnley have won that in straight sets? Did he get hugely unlucky in the first set? Was there some issue? 

Depends on whether you regard serving for it at 5-2 only then to lose it in a tie-break as "unlucky"!  No idea whether there were any issues.   

 Always difficult to know whether Jake 'choked' or Kyrian played amazingly well without seeing it live

But I do know that if Jake had won the first set, it's very unlikely that he'd have won the second 6-I - the dynamics would have been very different 

Net, net, it's certainly true that Jake has been struggling - but then, he said it quite publicly last year, so it's not really a suprise.

Choking in a first set really would be concerning. Surely not?
