Raducanu just looks so cool. I don't think Fernandez will ruffle her.

 

Raducanu with her customary first set win, Fernandez with her customary first set loss. They're had divergent results from this point.

 

This is just incredible tennis from both players.

 

Raducanu just looks so solid on her groundstrokes.

 

Pressure on Fernandez now to hold her serve.

 

Does Fernández usually go for a pee after the first set, or is she trying to ruffle Emma?

 

Top hold that.

 

That was quite a turn around on that service game.

 

Can't remember her going off in previous matches. Might be gamesmanship, might also be that she really needed to use the bathroom.

 

It’s almost like Fernandez needs to be down to get going.

 

Leylah has nerves of steel too.

 

'Balls deep down the middle' hehehe

 

She needs to dig deep now.

 

The fight back starts.......

 

Just had a look at the prize money $2.5m for the winner and $1.25m for runner up. Nice.

 

Thump!

 

What a defensive lob that was.

 

Emma breaks back!

 

And she’s back

 

Brilliant
