First set: Stefanos Tsitsipas *5-3 Roger Federer: Federer flits through another a quick love hold with ample big serves to put the pressure right back on Tsitsipas’ shoulders. This is far from spectacular from the Swiss. Even the serving isn’t that impressive, but he’s in this now and he needs to take his chances when they come.
First set: Stefanos Tsitsipas 5-2* Roger Federer: That was some hold from Stefanos Tsitsipas, who recovers from triple break point down to retain his lead and move to within a game of the first set.
Instead of panicking at 0-40, the Greek responded with two huge forehands and then a gutsy unreturned second serve. He his crushing his forehand and it is so impressive to see how much he trusts it. With a missed second serve return by Federer on break point, he moves on.
