 Not sure exactly. I had 10p on Gautier at 2.62 at the start and took it off at 26p at 1-5 in the second.

I think Stuart was 17 to win the second set at that moment. Definitely he was 11 to win the second set at 2-5, and pretty much the same at 3-5. Then started coming down like a bomb smile

Is this where Gautier's coach (having 15 mins ago booked a taxi, ordered his lunch, told his mum he'd call her in ten) now has a complete meltdown and says he'd rather flip burgers than ever work with a tennis player ever again????

What is going on.

7 games in a row from 0-5 down and we are into a decider.

I should have had money on a toilet break coming.

 Can't happen too often from 0-5 to win next 7 in mens professional tennis. I still remember doing it though in mens doubles (lowish standard) at Portsmouth civil service grass courts with a partner who almost never hit it out, just lobbed it deep most of the time.

Also glad of the toilet break....

A rather strange and unnerving sense of normalcy returns as the final set begins with 4 consecutive holds.

2-2*
