Imagine being 22 and having 3 match points on serve for a career-changing win, and you can feel it slipping away while you are starting to get fatigued and it seems like your opponent is getting stronger and finding a groove.

ETA: Wow I didn't see how brutal that 3rd match point was until now too.

Just like that 3 break points hmm.

I'm not a huge momentum guy but man if I was Ruud there I would have wanted to start the 4th set as soon as possible.

Props to Brooksby to be able to immediately break after a meltdown.

Holy stat. Brooksby 44-16 advantage in rallies over 9 shots.

And that may have been #45. Match point again.

Somebody get this kid a serve.

7 Americans already in the 3rd round, with a chance for 5 more.

Yikes. 3rd set and he hasn’t even had a break point yet. That quarter might get busted wide open.

Fritz picks the perfect time for his first break of the match, then somehow gives it right back.

Mmoh just won the 3rd set to take a 2-1 lead.
