First set: Rafael Nadal 6-5* Stefanos Tsitsipas: Nadal’s forehand is winning many of the battles against Tsitsipas’ backhand at the moment. At 15-15 he hooked a forehand high to the Tsitsipas backhand and elicited an error, then Tsitsipas responded by stepping in and overcooking a backhand into the net. A big second out wide and he holds with ease. Nadal has still only lost two points behind his first serve.
First set: Rafael Nadal *5-5 Stefanos Tsitsipas: Plenty of scoreboard pressure for Tsitsipas at 4-5, but he responds by producing one of his best service games of the match so far. After some big serving, he crushes a squeaky clean forehand inside out winner to hold. That forehand was so good that it elicited a yell of appreciation of Nadal.
