What a match though?? Alcaraz looked down and out, but wouldn't go away! Not enough people appreciate nearly enough, what these athletes put themselves through! No team mate to pass the racket too if things get tough! The physical demands at the highest level are off the scale! Kudos to N Kyrgios for his insightful commentary! He can be a decent guy, will an ounce of sense every so often apparently!

Yastremka-mania stopped running wild after a straight sets loss in the semis, though still a mighty achievement. Her conqueress, Zheng Qinwen, meets Aryna Sabalenka in the final, after the latter KO'd Cori Gauff.

Djokovic lost to the Sinner-man.

And what a match today between Zverev and Medvedev!! I won't say how it finishes - watch it on the Eurosport highlights show if you can. An epic, a pleasure to watch.
