Young Iga in big bother here.
Świątek game is gone here. The winner of this match will win the tournament.
Swiatek gone off court to get some treatment.
Going to take a fall in Sakkari’s level to let Swiatek back inhere.
A perfect performance from Mr Sakkari.
Swiatek couldn’t handle his power.
Sent home with her kompot in a mug. Sakkari is a powerful unit.

I’m calling at least 15 breaks of serve in the Nadal Schwartzman match.
Great stuff here. Both have started off excellently.
Phenomenal from Nadal. Break of serve.

This is Nadal’s A game.
Schwartzman has been really good but if Nadal can maintain this kind of level he is almost unbeatable on clay.
He has improved as tournament has gone on. 0-40 again now for 2nd game in a row.
Big chance for Diego.
A giveaway from Nadal, his second serve has been uncharacteristically bad this tournament.
Fantastic response from Lil Diego.
Nadal deploying loopy high top spin shots to cruelly expose Schwartzmans lack of height.

Unreal to have the fans back in numbers.

Diego will be kicking himself there, dragged himself back from 0-40 to deuce and then hands Nadal another break point with a double fault which he takes advantage of this time round. Nadal serves for the first set at 5-3.
Nadal made work in the earlier half of the set but Schwartzmann went out like a light towards the end. Nadal has figured him out and taken away the forehand that produced a number of winners early doors.
First set Nadal.
Best set of tennis from him in the tournament so far.
