Good to see Felix in the draw after his recent retirements, and with a very possible French Open qualifying entry though it could be tight. Hopefullly he is good to go.

Brancaccio breaks to love at the start of the deciding set.  He is hitting really, really big.

Toby had a long MTO after turning his right ankle over.  

Brancaccio is just about to serve for the match.

 When did he do his ankle, steve? In the third set? 

I only saw the last 4 points and Toby certainly looked a little down and going through the motions

But he's lost the second before the injury?

 He fell when he was taken wide to his forehand at 3-3 in the decider. It was a strange fall, usually when you're taken wide on a clay court you slide more not less.  At that point in time, the match was  evenly poised, though Brancaccio was playing some great shots but also missing too much.

I hope the injury isn't too serious, but I'd be unsuprised if Toby decides to have a rest week instead of playing in Francavill on Sea.
